Hard to imagine anything much weirder than wanting to present oneself as racist in front of an African-American journalists association. Pretty much guaranteed to get a hostile reception when you do that.

      The “this weird thing seems forced” thing seems like a weak response to an effective tactic.

      It’s effectively highlighting how they are just really, truly, fucking plain weird - like Ted Cruz giving a high five weird and “if she wasn’t my daughter I’d pay her to have sex with me” dangerous weird. It’s also important that they contrast with a platform of “we’re normal hardworking Americans, like you”. No you aren’t… You’re fucking weird.

      It’s not about you, the fact that that is how you receive it is something you can work on personally. But again, not about you, friend.
