I’m very aware of most of the great black conservatives you list. I consider them to be some of the most standout human beings in the country for their courage to buck the group, take the slings and arrows, and for their insight to see wiser, better solutions

On my comment about the military, I listed the demographic because someone seemed surprised that military votes may not break significantly in Trump’s favor, but more 50:50. My point was it seems military leanings are likely proportionate tp those in civilian society—and in that, Trump does not get a large % of black support ( I think unfairly so, with all that he’s focused on for the black community.)

You don't know what's in the hearts and minds of those 'statistics' that you reference.

You especially don't know what may have been experienced in those hearts and minds over the past four years.

Someone very wise once suggested that it's a bad idea to bet that precedent predicts future possibilities. Literally, he said:

“Relying on the maxim that Principle is not bound by Precedent we should not limit our expectations of the future."
