Can you expand on what it is you think his goal is in your scenario? Cause I can't think of one that makes any sense.

  > Can you expand on what it is you think his goal is in your scenario? Fund raising for his vanity campaign. Attracting votes from Trump-adjacent voters who may have buyer's remorse from 2016 but still want a lunatic conspiracy candidate. The same goals as anyone spouting this kind of dog whistling nonsense.

    This is an extremely cynical take IMO. Coupled with an ad-hominem "lunatic conspiracy candidate" reference. It's a low-value comment, not worthy of HN.

    Ok so in your mind he's courting the anti-semite vote by using coded language to claim that what, the jews and chinese are in cahoots against white and black people? In an off the record discussion, why not just come out and say that if it was actually his point? He put out a public response with someone that is very pro Israel right after, which seems like it would torpedo his chances with the anti-semites. One of the thing's that's going to hurt him in the polls the most I think is actually his very pro Israel stance. It's funny to see people try to paint him as an anti semite at the same time.
