          Racist, but everyone is just making fun of it. “They’re rapists” struck a chord and fueled whole news cycles where the pearl clutching only spread the word.

Granted it’s not been great for the residents of Springfield, but it’s a “Kamablah”-style rhetorical whiff I can’t see 2016 Trump making.
