The day after the first Black woman was named to a presidential ticket, Trump tweeted: "The 'suburban housewife' will be voting for me. They want safety & are thrilled that I ended the long running program where low income housing would invade their neighborhood. Biden would reinstall it, in a bigger form, with Corey Booker in charge!"

Why Corey Booker? Why not Chuck Schumer? Or Adam Schiff? Why not any other progressive elected official? Why would Trump think that suburban housewives would need to be protected from... the senate's only black male Democratic senator?

Anti-anti-Trump columnist Tim Carney was moved to wonder: "What is the campaign strategy behind a tweet like this?"

Just spit-balling here, but maybe: Racism?

With 82 days to go until the election, this is what he thinks will work with suburban women, calling them "housewives," and suggesting that he will protect them not just from radical leftists... but from radical leftist BLACK MEN.
