A generational and structural shift is decoupling Black identity from Democratic Party loyalty, transforming a once-reliable voting bloc into a cohort of "political free agents" that the GOP is uniquely positioned to exploit.

Stop capitalizing “black.”
We only have to ‘peel’ a few percentage of them. How many would be success?
I think is capitalized because it’s in the title, and you have to copy it exactly. Ditto for the first paragraph. Dems da rules.
We did great with them in 2024. Best since around 1950. Then the dingbat at 1600 came out against the new Juneteenth holiday and said people would rather work. Then wrecked the economy. Then last week put out a tweet of Candace Owens as a crackhead with an aunt Jemimah dew rag on and with giant lips.
Did they pounce?
No, it was decided for whatever reason a few years ago that racial terms should be capitalized as a proper term.
Let me fix that.
Every American love Trump and has voted for him in 3 elections now.
GOP. … where the sun don’t shine.
"political free agents"
🤣🤣
The "good news" - is old news, and references polling data from well over a year ago, pre-ICE rolling out in the heartland and building very unpopular detention centers, and pre-USSC VRA decision.
After making measurable gains among African-American and Hispanic voters during the last ten years, the Republicans have, in 16 months, burned the bridges that connected them with these voters.
It's doubtful that the all-white vote is going to propel R's into national office in future elections.
Maybe the purpose of this article is to calm rank and file Republicans who might be wondering why their party seems to be shooting itself in the foot - trying to present an upside to what have become unpopular actions.
“No, it was decided for whatever reason a few years ago that racial terms should be capitalized as a proper term.”
I think “they” decided black was not so much a color as a culture, a mindset, a way of thinking.
And everyone in that culture is being pressured to think alike and act alike and vote alike - and if someone tries to leave the culture that person is then stigmatized as a traitor.
In other words, don’t even think of leaving the plantation.
Delusional...
Trump got 13% of the Black vote against Kamala Harris in 2024.
Black women have the highest turn out, and they are 90% Democrat, or higher.
Obama got 99% of college educated Black women, two elections in a row.
The Hispanic vote for Trump in 2024 was a one time 46%.
Texas Hispanics turned out BIG for Trump in 2024 because of the insane Open Border policy under Biden.
“’IT’ was decided”. By woke freaks. I don’t have to submit.
