Reuters Poll: Black Male Approval For Trump Doubles In One Week
Daily Caller ^ | 5/2/2018 | AMBER ATHEY

Posted on 05/02/2018 4:58:03 PM PDT by grayboots

Black male support for President Donald Trump doubled in just one week, according to a Reuters poll on presidential approval.

A poll taken on April 22, 2018 had Trump’s approval rating among black men at 11 percent, while the same poll on April 29, 2018 pegged the approval rating at 22 percent. It should be noted that Reuters only sampled slightly under 200 black males each week and slightly under 3,000 people overall.

Trump experienced a similar jump in approval among black people overall, spiking from 8.9 percent on April 22 to 16.5 percent on April 29.

Black males were also far more likely to say that they had “mixed feelings” about the president. On the 22nd, 1.5 percent said they had mixed feelings, while 7.1 percent said the same on the 29th.

The results are interesting given the recent transformation of Kanye West, who posted a picture of himself wearing a Make America Great Again hat on his Twitter account last week.

I personally don’t think any of us should approve of blackmail.

Wow - and all without one bottle of hot sauce.

If Trump, or the gop-e, could garner 22% of the black vote, hold what happened in 2016, the dims are out of business.

Could be why we're seeing them push so hard for amnesty.

Things must be getting testy on the dimocrat plantation.

I can’t imagine many Black Men are too happy with how the media treated Kanye even if they don’t agree with what he said. The liberal news grotesque over reaction should at the very least work as a wake up call to every black person to what these elites really think of them.

There’s no hope for the women. Doesn’t matter.

Of course it matters. (Why wouldn't it?)

“Sounds too good to be true.”

I agree with that. If it is only a 4% increase that is big trouble for the dimoKKKRATS. I can see why they are going full bore in trying to take down Kanye.

Didn’t they used to lynch blacks for that?

I guess not that much has changed...

I'd never heard of this Kanye West person until the many recent FR posts.

Question.. What is he? A sports guy? TV and or movies? Singer? Why is he well known to folks who pay attention to pop culture?

Just think what would happen if Trump invited the Rev. Jesse J. to join him at the White House for some basketball.

Black women are WOMEN first. They’ll always pick the government over the louse they married. At least the black men can appreciate more the beer and football game on the tube after a hard days work. The women just don’t get it.

He'd be accused of racism, because assuming all black males play basketball is stereotyping.

The taste of freedom is very powerful.

The knowledge that freedom is worth dying for is both liberating and empowering, and the foundation for happiness. The day I realized that changed me forever.
