<< approval numbers at 25 percent among African-American voters and 50 percent among Hispanic voters. >>
If those percentages are even close to accurate, the Dems don’t have a prayer in 2020. I’d guess that the numbers are attributable to 1) record low unemployment numbers for both groups; 2) Trump’s strong stance on border security; 3) the fact that Trump doesn’t shamelessly and insultingly pander to them, which they no doubt find refreshing.
I think the power of this is underestimated. When you listen to Trump at his rallies, he unabashedly talks about the values that all real Americans share - pride in country, the ability of everybody to succeed, a growing economy, God, family, creating a vibrant land we want to live in, military, veterans, and police. I don't think I've ever heard him pander once to any balkanized group.
This is indeed very refreshing not just for minorities, but for all Americans, especially those of us who have been yearning for this for over 35 years.
“1) record low unemployment numbers for both groups; 2) Trump’s strong stance on border security; 3) the fact that Trump doesn’t shamelessly and insultingly pander to them, which they no doubt find refreshing.”
4.) speaks in plain ordinary language, and not the BS political euphemisms we’ve all heard from all politicians all of our lives
5.) Is an anti-establishment rebel and disrupter who fearlessly takes on massive establishment forces and WINS
And the cool thing about all of that is that those five Trump characteristics appeal to ALL of us, not JUST folks of color, but to to all stripes of folks regardless of creed, color, gender, ethnicity, or socio-economic status ... because basically people are people regardless of how the leftists try to slice and dice us into identity groups to try to pit us against each other ...
if the polls are correct, then Trump will indeed become the great unifier, something that’s truly going to drive the left insane ...
