There's no question that Walker's appeal was that he was stupid and obedient. Racists love that in a person of color. It is why they despised Warnock -- and for that matter, Hillary: It is precisely *because* they are so enormously qualified (I would argue that Hillary is the most qualified individual to ever run for the office of POTUS in history, with significant experience in every branch of government.) This threatens racists, bigots, and fascists generally, and their infantile fantasies of superiority.

Racists and misogynists know they’re superior. They just don’t want to have to prove it. ‘Cuz they wouldn’t stand a chance.

You're on point with your observation about why racists opposed Warnock and H. Clinton, especially Clinton. She was ridiculously qualified be be president and she should have been the 1st female president in US history. But reprobate Republican voters couldn't have that. And unfortunately, the media and left-wingers unwittingly assisted them, which is why we've been plagued by Trump since 2016.
