What are the percentages of:

Plan to pick up a new tv at the late night protest?

Plan to burn down their own neighborhood?

Hate whitey because they were told to do so?

BLEXIT needs conservative, patriot support.

PDJT needs to get Candace Owens out front a LOT.

“Say the Democratic Party is welcoming to Black Americans 47%, Say the Republican Party is welcoming to Black Americans 28%, View the Democratic Party as more welcoming than the Republican Party 51%, Trust Democrats in Congress to do what’s best for Black Americans 44%, Trust Republicans in Congress to do what’s best for Black Americans 29%, Trust Democrats more than Republicans to do what’s best for Black Americans 48%”

I wonder if these sort of numbers were that good bit higher for the Dems a few years back (and lower for the Republicans, of course)? If so, this really not a good thing for the Democrats.

Go figure. The Democratic party & their academic & media mouthpieces spend the last couple decades demonizing “old white men” as the problem, and then they expect enthusiasm among their base for electing the whitest, most geriatric guy imaginable? As Slow Joe says, come on, man!

The best that can be hoped for is young black Americans decide to not vote due to low enthusiasm. Trump got 8% of the black vote in 2016 (13% with black males, 4% with black females). The black male percentage may go up for Trump, but the black female percentage won't. Wouldn't surprise me to see Trump get *less* than 4% with black females this time around.

As such, Trump tops out at 10%, depending on black voter turnout. If they get enthused about the DEM VP candidate or black sentiment across all blacks in the US takes a further move that is anti-white, Trump will be lucky to get 8% again.

5% had something positive to say about Trump. 5%. It’s the same old garbage every 4 years. Lots of articles on how blacks have changed but they never do and never will.

perhaps the men will go 20% or even 25% for Trump because they think he’s a tough guy

But for black woman, the government is their kids’ father and their husband. We will never get them

“But for black woman, the government is their kids’ father and their husband. We will never get them.”

Except that for most moms, security and safety is big, naturally. These BLM riots are disturbing to them, their local pols aren’t stopping it (they’re even reducing police) and they know that Trump is for law and order, for safety.

Soon as Biden’s black VP is announced, they’ll be back onboard.

President Trump needs to introduce Anthony Brian Logan at a rally. The guy is great. Watch him on YouTube.

“They’ve seen the election of Black mayors, they’ve seen the election of the first Black president, and they’ve also seen that their lives have not changed.”

Young blacks have nothing to lose - it's time to give Trump a chance...
