Here’s what blacks are hearing:
From establishment Republicans: nothing
From any Democrat: You poor things, we’ll try get you a bit more free money.
From Trump: I’ll bring good jobs back for every citizen, and prevent illegals from getting those jobs.
That last message is very attractive to many blacks, the ones who (like most other folks) want to join the middle class. Trump would do well to keep hammering that point home.
Not only is it attractive to blacks, it’s attractive to legal latino’s, as well.
Both groups have seen their jobs go to illegals.
I suspect most latinos that are here legally will vote for him as well.
As long as he does good in the debates. Which he will, he really doesn’t give a sh(* about PC nonsense, or toeing the line, people like that.
Bernie Sanders has now taken up that message as well. I am sure the Dems from their own polls see how that message is resonating.
In South Los Angeles, the Illegal Invaders are squeezing out the Blacks, and the Illegals are taking Money out of the same EBT Pot and the available Jobs for those Blacks who actually still have some Pride in Working for a Living.
The increase in the Minimum Wage that Los Angeles just passed will only make the situation worse for Blacks.
The Illegal Invader Cartel is running the City now.
Maybe Ferguson and Baltimore back to back was too much even for the Blacks. They sense that they are being used.
You are exactly right...i never understood why the Republicans would place their bets with the Latino community on the issue of illegals and amnesty. I’m in NY/NJ and the plain fact is that unemployment in the black community is abysmal as it is everywhere, and those that have jobs typically have low skilled low wage jobs that are competing directly with illegals. Why the Republicans never stood up for American workers and American jobs is beyond me, it is a tailor made issue to increase the black vote and Trump has figured that out. Incidentally, jobs are colorblind which is why he is doing well with Latinos too.
Similar for Hispanics...From establishment Republicans: coming here is an act of love... we don't care if you're legal or not ... it's LUV... From democrats: You poor things - you can be the next blacks. Vote as a resented block like blacks do and we'll try to get you freeies. From Trump: Illegals make Hispanic living here look bad and subject them to resentment for added crime and for keeping wages low all other racial groups. I'll send them home.
YOU struck it with that one! I know Black Americans were thrilled to be respected by Trump enough to be brought into the fold of ALL Americans crying for jobs, fathers and graduates of all colors and stripes needing work.
He just must have thrilled them by issuing a promise of a better tomorrow for Black Americans who are not the fascist thugs paid off by Soros, but probably fine Baptists who are paid off by jobs and capitalism!
Pray God that America proves to be a harder nut to crack than Soros/Obama/Clintonistas/COCommerce/Wall Street globalists ever thought we would be. God be with us.
onyx, what a marvelous post! It lifts us, moves us to keep our hope in God, and to keep our prayers for our father land close to Him and His marvelous works.
