Yeah but he got to the top of the ticket on the backs of these people, despite all his known flaws. Partisanship can explain his ability to hang around despite his conservative bona fides, but it can't explain his rise, which (ahem, "THEY'RE RAPISTS") was a foundational racial appeal. Also, the rich white guys I know are all heavily racist, but ultimately vote for who will lower their taxes, qed.
