Crawled into bed in the raygun days in order to win. And as others have noted, the bloc of voters is dying off, likely faster than I can type. The days of speaking in code (welfare queen) and dog whistles are over. Caucasians are a dying bloc of voters, barely the majority these days. What are states like texasistan going to do when the 95% of their population growth gets to be of voting age? Gonna be hard to suppress those that "don't vote right".
