You make some good points, but just because Trump doesn't give a crap about anyone but himself doesn't mean he isn't consciously a bigot and racist. And even if his racism is subconscious, it's still racism. But it's not.  Trump is a knowing and deliberate racist, as you point out in your commentary; just because his use of racism is sometimes primarily opportunistic doesn't mean it isn't genuine racism. The fact that Trump can put on a sincere front about whatever subject at hand at the drop of a hat is evidence only of his ability to compartmentalize his psychopathy.
