This is the part where he appeals to the black vote.
Self-righteousness is incompatible with coalition building.

He's not even saying anything. It's all...miasma. He's disjointed and saying nothing of importance at all. It's like a sentence or two was made for every headline of the last few months and thrown into a cauldron.
My God, he's not going pants-on-head crazy tonight!
...or at least so far
Yeah, I'm glad. I mean... on the one hand, it's pretty troubling to see Orange Hitler get the nomination for a major American political party and then overtly double down on the fascism and racism right out in the open. On the other hand, though, he's pretty much made sure that he's not going to get a single minority vote.
I am vastly relieved that he didn't figure out he's not still in the primaries and try to reach out to demographics beyond his core supporters. Maxing out on white racial resentment demagoguery gets you 35% of GOP primary electorate. Enough to win the nomination under certain conditions, but nowhere near enough to win in November.
And he's also reminded us that the crazy white people in this country are still crazy but still not a majority. He's only historically atypical in that he made it further along in the process than George Wallace and Pat Buchanan. That wasn't because he has broader appeal than they did, but because the masterminds who run the GOPe thought 17 candidates in their primary was a great idea.

but it's mostly annoying and boring
where are the storm troopers?
It's code words, dude. He'll lock up every black man in the country, starting with Barack Obama.
WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN
IT MEANS FASCISM
IT MEANS FASCISM DOESN'T IT
Well, he is a dickwolf.
Martial law?

It's the Joe Kennedy story.

Writer of the Art of the Deal.
I know you need some lack of self awareness to be in the GOP but christ.
