'comfy racists busily assuming' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'power? some would say that's the maga way' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'power?' could be 'p' (symbol in physics) and 'p' is located in the answer.
'some' could be 'a' and 'a' is found within the answer.
'that's' could be 'sc' (short for Latin scilicet- 'it follows' or 'that is) and 'sc' is located in the answer.
'the' could be 't' (the is pronounced as a 't' sound in some dialects) and 't' is found within the answer.
'way' could be 's' (Compass direction - South) and 's' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
