Yes—in a recent poll, The Donald garners 20-plus versus Hillary, against all of them. Why? For starters, he’s not against us. Yet.
Last week, Survey USA released an eye-catching poll showing how Donald Trump would fare in head-to-head match ups against potential Democratic nominees Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders, Joe Biden, and Al Gore. The most shocking result was not that he beat all four of the candidates. What made everyone’s jaw hit the floor is that he received more than 20 percent support among African American voters in every match up.

Very interesting.
I have no doubt that We Be Sisters has helped him. They are pretty funny.
I’m just saying.
Trump is saying America, needs to be for America once again.
That is a very powerful message.
Anyone who is ascendant, anyone who loves America, anyone who doesn't want to condemn himself and his children to the hellhole towards which the Left is leading the world--supports Trump.
Nobody wants to be on a sinking ship.
It’s not just the left.
A majority of the GOP candidates, are also for globalization.
Is it safe to assume that if The Donald steals a few percentage points away from the black, hispanic, women and jewish voters that he wins? The college age leftist brainwashed crowd might not sway from their DemRat leanings.
For years the “smart operators” have been telling the GOP contenders that they should “do more” to appeal to the black vote, or to the Hispanic vote, or the female vote, as if these were each some kind of monolithic voting bloc in and of themselves. And they have been wrong, taking the Republican party as a whole and the Presidential contender for that cycle down the tubes, first in denying them a decent majority of the vote, then of watering down policy once elected, to “reach out” to the sometimes entirely bogus “concerns” (as defined by some esoteric focus group) of the various minorities. Sorry, this franchise was already taken over by the Democrats.
What The Donald does, is appeal to the better self-interest of the INDIVIDUAL, a refreshing turnaround from the thinking of people as herds of cattle to be shifted from one lot to another. This has been a paradigm shift, of a magnitude neither major party will feel the full effects of for years to come.
I spoke with a black friend of mine who told me she supports Donald Trump fully. She actually probed me over the phone, asking me my opinion of him, and when I answered positively she came out of the closet, so to speak. She actually said she was afraid to publicly talk about it! This woman actually voted for Obama previously.
I watched the speech in Alabama and somehow missed this part.
“How does a candidate who holds political rallies in Alabama with supporters screaming “white power”
Anybody else hear it? I sure as hell did not.
Wow, more Blacks like Trump than people who work at Fox News.
Pray America is waking
ONE SPEECH where Trump says “The demcraps have been promising you things for 50 years, and where are you?”
And it would be all over...
This election has two possible outcomes, Trump or a democrat as president.
If Trump wins the nomination, he will win president.
If Trump loses the nomination, Hillary or any one of the other rats will win president.
The reason for this will be because the GOP will find a way to get jebbie nominated or they will work 24x7 to sabotage any non establishment nominee. If Cruz or Walker through some miracle got the nomination, they would NEVER be allowed to finish. If the GOP gets jebbie or another preferred establishment candidate nominated, they will be the candidate that stands for nothing and they will LOSE big time.
There is a long time Saturday political breakfast meeting every week where I live, nominally nonpartisan but actually very Republican. 3-4 weeks ago I was talking to one of the black regulars afterwards, and he said that he has lots of family in NY and Chicago who are traditional Democrats, and that several of them had told him they were voting for Trump. It surprised the heck out of him.
Just a little anecdotal backup for these poll results.
I (still) haven’t watched Fox News since that disasterous “debate”.
They are partisans. Completely wrong at the moment.
Not too surprising. Trump’s big issue is immigration, something that affects Blacks at least as much as Whites. I have long suspected that immigration restriction was the ticket to Republican outreach to Blacks, not enterprise zones, or even drug law easing.
The other issue is the Donald’s whole persona. He is the big man on campus, such exuberant, brash confidence is more appealing to Black sensibilities than the usual earnest policy wonk (he is almost the anti-White guy). With his 757,helicopter, and love of gold-plating he is probably what a young Black man would imagine he would be if he were a rich white guy. Ben Carson is probably too Oreo for most Blacks.
More anecdotal backup for these poll results. See my previous post.
Anyone taking a strong anti-illegal immigration stance will get similar results.
Power corrupts, in proportion to its magnitude.
However, everything revealed about Trump so far causes me to support him enthusiastically.
He is already very powerful, and, as far as I can tell, he has not been corrupted. That's encouraging.
His brash honesty is also encouraging. He's unguarded in what he says. He appears to be transparent and self-revealing--certainly far more than most people in the public spotlight.
I think the way he cuts through all the murky complications of contemporary decadence shows a rare intellectual brilliance and clarity. It also exposes, by juxtaposition, the mediocrity of the self-appointed "intelligentsia"--the intellectual and moral mediocrity--exposes small-minded men, politicians and those who present themselves as TV "journalists" for example, for the intellectual and moral dwarfs that they are--and this is delightful though also disarming.
These intellectual and moral midgets can only cringe in awe and envy beside a man who intellect, moral clarity, wealth, and power tower over them--beside whom they are exposed as vacuous, clichéd, and confused. No wonder they fear him! No wonder their hatred of him is so visceral!
He speaks the truth as well as he can see it unconcerned about the consequences. That's very unusual in the mendacious world of Western decadence. It's also refreshing.
He could disappoint us. I hope he won't.
He's the best hope we've got right now.
