Also vows that after four years in office, he'll get 95 percent of the black vote
One of the most common knocks against Donald Trump is actually one of the things I like most about him. Whereas some find fault in Trump for not being sufficiently indoctrinated to the conventional wisdom of politics, I see a refreshing refusal to be a slave to it. A few things are more established as conventional wisdom than the idea that the black vote will always go overwhelmingly Democratic, because . . . well, because it does!
In an appearance on Friday in Dimondale, Michigan (just outside Lansing), Trump aimed comments directly at black voters and trained his sights squarely on that conventional wisdom. Conservatives have long believed the black community does itself a disservice by slavishly (yeah, I used the word) giving its votes to Democrats, who consequently take them for granted and do nothing to make their lot in life any better.
‘What the hell do you have to lose?’
I thought his appeal to them was genius... Who can argue with “...what have you got to lose?” ?
Lots of blacks appear to cherish their wretched existence, here is Detroit for example.

Wouldn’t it be hilarious if this was going on:
1. Everybody knows that minorities hate republicans.
2. Trump ran and won as an outsider to the republicans.
3. Republican party is trying to get him out of the race STILL, making him, in many people’s eyes, not really a republican.
4. Minorities say the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
5. Hillary sucks, and everyone knows it.
6. Trump courts minorities and even says, “what have you got to lose?” to blacks, and it nails precisely the problem they have after 8 years of Obama.
7. Blacks vote for the “what have you got to lose?” republican because the alternative is stupid, and the R party hates him and he just might do what Obama didn’t.
Seriously, it’s almost as though the R establishment is against him because it will INCREASE his strength with blacks.
Just a thought. :-)
Perhaps blacks will begin to wonder why the liberals situate their abortion clinics in black neighborhoods. Perhaps it may occur to them that liberals are able to “choose” the best public or private schools for their kids while blacks are herded into horrible union controlled schools where they fail miserably. They may begin to reflect on what fifty years of devotion to the Democratic Party has correlated to their social disintegration and economic collapse. No doubt their so called leaders Sharpton and Jackson and numerous others have been well paid and live well. Hillary no doubt will pay whatever their price to maintain their “support”. However maybe, just maybe, some blacks might want to reconsider their political behavior.
THIS! Going to an 8 to 5 , M-F to support pets of the government is BOR-ING— why not just enjoy life as a pet of the gov’t?

West Bend, outside of Milwaukee (urban area)
Dimondale, out side of Lansing (urban area)
I hope everyone realizes that this “outreach” to blacks is a request to involve the white suburbanites.
I’ll bet that the crowd in West Bend and Dimondale (I know both cities very well) reflected the demographics of America: 13% Black 10% Hispanic and 77% white.
Trump was telling the 77% to get on-board.
Exactly the right thing to say. Perfect.
“Our weave. I don’t wear it, but we need it.”
Democrats pay off the black preachers, who then deliver their congregation’s vote to the genocidal babykillers.
“I’ll be the sabotage in the White Devil Machine (even if it means sabotaging my own nest, too)”
This is what Donald is asking them to lose.
God can, er, trump that.
The catch is, that these preachers need to be willing to listen to this.
Hell is, in fact, what they have to lose (politically, if not also theologically). They’re in an embrace with a political and social hell.
They would lose the Demonrat promises of federal largess.They will not go for anyone who doesn't even promise such largess. Promises of real jobs will not woo them, conditioned as they have by the Dems to demand handouts. I do believe Trump will increase present predictions of 1% support of blacks. He may crack 3%.
I agree, and I’ve been around a long time. I’m also proud to be a Trump Republican.
I also have been waiting for a Republican to make the case for our values and system of economic growth that benefits all of society. Trump is the first to do this and in his own way! Go Trump.
On another note, what would they loose?
1. Free Obama phones
2. Free stuff
3. Will have to work (four letter word) for their stuff
4. wont be able to blame republicans/or Whites for their plight.
CD
For all the sarcasm that they will lose phones, etc, they aren’t mostly in that camp.
Most want to lose utterly crappy schools, violent neighborhoods, dope infestations, and nearly zero chances for normal missile America blue collar manufacturing jobs.
A lot of blacks are already supporting him. More than Bush, Romney, or McCain ever dreamed of. And it isn’t just the Thomas Sowells and Herman Cains and Condeleezas of the world. It’s young, normal, fun and cool people in that community. Being for Trump is way more common than you think. There’s a sense Trump “gets it” and they like success and his stand up for himself attitude.
This election is going to surprise a lot of people.
