Dog whistling. Its not about actually wanting the candidate who elocutes the most effectively, its about telling their core audience “yeah we don’t think black people are capable of intelligence either, just like you”
Don’t forget his presidency came off the back of W. We were all sick of hearing gibberish from the president of the united states. Everyone was happy to have an articulate man in charge

Like people saying they wished Obama was “more articulate” 15 years ago. It’s nothing but racist sog whistles
Mostly people called Obama very articulate. That wasn’t so much a dogwhistle as the bigotry of lowered expectations.
But he was/is very articulate?

And honestly, he is incredibly good at giving speeches. I wish he was half as good as president as he was at inspiring people with his speeches.
Which is why he is backing … Donald Trump?
