This guy is much more electable than Clinton though. Because he wears a bolo tie.

Damn right.

I suggest you look into the history of the American populist movement.  These sorts of comments go hand-in-hand with the populist tradition.  I'm not saying that's a good thing, but it has always been the case.  And more to the point, is there really anyone who hasn't had this thought about say, Lindsay Graham?  Lastly, he may still be more electable than Hillary in a GE, idk.  However, I do know that she's certainly not the strongest candidate, regardless of Schweitzer's electability.

This sort of behavior might not be incompatible with left-wing populism, but it's not exactly required by it either. And if he wants to be a viable candidate, Schweitzer must understand that being offensive toward oppressed groups is a no-goer for modern progressivism.
