(3) they may well be racist but that doesn't mean they're voting for Trump just because he's racist, too.
None of which really jives with the headline, and none of which is really in the least bit very interesting. Especially since they're all hedged, so "maybe" it's not racism driving them to anti-trade policies, but maybe it is, and maybe they're racist but voting for Trump for other reasons but maybe it's that racism he's not actually denying too.
