The script is to make racist appeals.
I don’t know why people are determined to believe that this is a bug of his candidacy and administration rather than a feature.

I think his crew know that things have finally gone too far and they are trying to run damage control. All they can hope for is that he stays on script. That he flips and flops should take you by surprise almost as much as the sun coming up in the east in the morning.
He was a ( D ) before he was an ( R ) - a COUPLE of times.....

I disagree. It's just the usual stereotype reaction expected of him after such a horrible event. Within days be will be back to * normal*
There will be no change in strategy.

Some people are not aware how deep the problem of white supremacy is
On top of that Trump has also cut funding and eliminated entire departments dedicated to combatting white nationalism.

The only right thing Trump could possibly do is to resign.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Many people are unaware of even having absorbed contemporary white supremacist propaganda...leaving them in the hilarious position of not being white supremacists, just agreeing with them.
It’s not just faux. Left leaning and unaffiliated media has done just as much. So much for liberal bias.

I could argue that this is the reason for his election. While a lot of people took the exclusion path ( I'm right, your are dumb just trust me), Trum exploited inclusion. Not by trying to change people's minds by disccusing with them, but by giving them the feeling that they matter and taking their votes.

And his being inclusive of the biggest dumpster fires America has to offer is a big part of why Trump dispelling accusations of racism is a tall fucking order.
