New York Post’s Friday cover: “Who wants to lose the election?”

1. Based on the #DemocraticDebate2020 the dems are in bad shape. The level of contempt for their most loyal base (Black Americans) is going to be the reason why Trump is re-elected. They think we are bulls**ting about our reparations, and we are NOT.

2. The benign neglect policy that the democrats have used to undermine Black Americans for the last 50 years will no longer be tolerated. If Black Americans do NOT get reparations, we simply won't vote for them. What the hell do we have to lose NOT voting for them?
#DemDebate2020
3. Not only are the #DemDebate2020 ignoring Black issues, they are actually prioritizing policies that are extremely detrimental to Black Americans. The main two are immigration & white LGBT issues
4. Immigration issues undermine Foundational Black Americans, because different groups of people are allowed to come to the US and bring their own brand of anti-Black hostilities and compound that with the anti-Black hatred of white supremacist society.
5. When immigrants are allowed over they are usually placed in positions where Black communities provide the economic base for these immigrant communities. After Black people build up these other groups economically, oftentimes they turn on Black Americans
6. Also the #DemDebate2020 are using policies that were specifically designed for Black Americans like 14th amendment and the 1964 civil rights act, to neglect Black Americans and prioritize protections for the white LGBT community OVER Black ppl INCLUDING Black LGBT (hi Ed Buck)

Sad reality, but US politics is not bipartisan nor representational. Obscenely well funded lobby groups, themselves representing serious banking concerns, "determine" rep/dem fiscal, national & foreign policies. Congress & WH long ago prostituted themselves to these $ interests.
2. Obama, as amenable, pioneering & "yes we can" as he was, did not stand or defend the interests of African Americans as one might reasonably expected him to have done. He hedged, shuffled & mumbled when questioned directly but always played the black vote: "yo, what's up y"all"

Tariq, why are African🇺🇸 issues completely ignored. It’s as if Latinos are the only minorities in this country? Does the black vote even count? I ask because with so many Latinos already here and thousands more poring in everyday, it seems that Latinos replaced the black vote.

Might we already be seeing the early stages of another rigged democrat primary?
Dems will surely take action to minimize the number of blacks escaping the plantation.
Will there be a big power play to get Kamala Harris or another black on the ticket?
That would be the most obvious way to minimize black vote loss.
They will also want to protect their women's vote by making sure a female is on, or leading, the ticket.
I suspect many smart women will set their improved economic well-being under president Trump as a higher priority than any flaky social justice concerns.
