Black voters pushing Trump to victory, with support for Biden 15 points down
Wash. Examiner ^ | 8/31/2020 | Paul Bedard

President Trump’s support from likely black voters is nearly twice what campaign officials believe is needed to win reelection and 15 points under the level Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden needs, according to a new survey.

The latest John Zogby Strategies/EMI Research Solutions poll, which was taken after last week’s Republican National Convention that featured several minority speakers, put Trump’s support from black voters at 20%. For Biden, it is at 75%.

For Trump, that is 12 points more than he received in 2016 and 9 points more than campaign officials believe he needs to keep the White House. One senior official recently told Secrets, “If it’s at 11%, then we win.”

The polling analysis suggested that the rioting in cities and Trump’s law and order stance could be driving more black voters into his camp and robbing Biden of votes from the Democratic Party’s most loyal base.

The analysis said, “Biden should be pleased with his support among Democrats, women, and Hispanics but a lead of 75%-20% among blacks can spell real trouble. A Democrat needs 90%+ and a high turnout among blacks. Could it be that Trump’s law and order message is hitting home among blacks who are worried about demonstrations getting out of control? Biden holds 52%-35% among 18-29-year-olds but Barack Obama won with 66% in 2008 and 61% in 2012 among this young cohort.”

Paris Dennard, the campaign’s senior communications adviser for black media affairs, told Secrets, “It is not surprising to see numerous polls showing President Trump’s approval with black voters increasing. After watching both political conventions make their best case, black Americans are giving President Trump a second look, and many a first look, because they are learning more about his record of achievement and Joe Biden’s old and new policies that work against the black community coupled with Biden’s consistently offensive bigoted comments.”

Several other recent polls have found steady support for Trump from black voters.

The poll also found Biden leading Trump, but the lead shrank after the Republican convention.

In a two-way race, Biden leads Trump, 48% to 42%. In a four-way race that includes two independents, who are pulling votes away from Biden, the Democrat leads 45% to 42%.

black people are sick and tired of being kept on the Democratic Party Plantation
fed welfare payments and milked for their votes like cows

many black people have seen these last couple of years, experienced how a free economy affords everybody.. including black folks...jobs and opportunities

they want real lives for themselves, they are tired of being Democrat Party plantation slaves

We are looking at a Trump landslide that is going to sweep the Democrats out of offices. The People are anti-Democrat Party, not just anti-Biden.

Hillary didn’t get the support that Obama got and Biden won’t get the votes that Hillary got. We are on the verge of an electoral college landslide.

The big story still is the mailed ballot fraud.

The two questions are how many will vote and how those votes will split. I’m very curious how those will be answered this year.

The number of votes for Trump/Republicans in the House and Senate, will overwhelm their efforts to steal the election...

Praying this happens.

Welcome to the party. You can still be black - we aren’t Joe Biden, but we consider you long missed fellow Americans.

[[Black voters pushing Trump to victory]]

Gee I can’t imagine why:

“...poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids.”

“I was in a caucus with James O. Eastland,” the former vice president said while putting on a Southern drawl. “He never called me boy, he always called me son.”

“You cannot go into a 7-11 or a Dunkin Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I’m not joking.”

“They’re going to put y’all back in chains,”

“I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy,”

Biden, “I got a lot, I got hairy legs that, that, that, that turn blonde in the sun, and the kids used to come up and reach in the pool and rub my leg down so it was straight and then watch the hair come back up again. They’d look at it. I learned about roaches, I learned about kids jumping on my lap” (Roaches is a derogatory term used to insult black people according to some sites)

“You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I’m not joking”.

“People would come to him and talk about what was happening to them at home in terms of foreclosures, in terms of bad loans that were being — I mean, these Shylocks who took advantage of these women and men while overseas” (Shylocks is a derogatory term meant to insult Jews)

“I think the concept of busing … that we are going to integrate people so that they all have the same access and they learn to grow up with one another and all the rest, is a rejection of the whole movement of black pride is a rejection of the entire black awareness concept, where black is beautiful, black culture should be studied and the cultural awareness of the importance of their own identity”.

Yes, mail in ballots are an issue in certain states like Nevada where the race is close.

This is why we have an Electoral College. We know Trump will lose in CA, HI, RI, VT, MA, etc. IF those states have mail in voting, who cares except for the Senate/Congressional races.

What is important is mail in voting in Nevada, AZ, NH(we do not), WI, MI, OH, FL, PA and any other swing state.

Actually, Biden will get 100% of the black vote. Any black person who votes for Trump “ain’t black.” Biden said so himself.

I hate to be negative here - but I’m not gonna totally believe this until I see it in exit polling and election results.

Saying you like Trump and actually doing something about it (as it relates to minority voters) are two different things.

Blacks giving up on dems is the sweetest news I’ve heard in years.
For years dems have deliberately kept blacks down and miserable, and denied them jobs, purposely making them dependent. Then every year at election time, dems want to blacks and asked for money and votes and promised they would make evil whitey pay for his misdeeds.

Next year at election time blacks are just as poor and miserable.

Along came Trump who brought back jobs for blacks. Then dems saw the success and deliberately and intentionally brought the economy down to where it was before.

Blacks have seen what dems are doing and are not going to take it any more.

I can hardly wait for the delicious pleasure of blacks rejecting the party that destroyed cities and put blacks out of work.

Yes, we must continue to pray and pray.

Prayer for the safety and health of President Trump is critical/imperative.
