To be fair, Trump could have been much clearer

According to Scott Adams, this is by design. It moves the discussion beyond "is he a member of La Raza" which we now accept, and then the argument is about whether it's racist. Which the media will argue on and on, but anyone who actually looks at what was said will likely disagree with that. And that adds to the list of "media lies" he can use. Since it's easier on the internet to go and see when the media lies, you now have a percentage of people who will go and look, and some that won't bother and will happily accept what they're told on TV. The ones that won't bother, well they were probably against Trump, and they were going to vote against him or not at all. The ones that will - even if they don't necessarily like what he said - can still see the media manipulations and that still works to his favor.
