Donald Trump plans minority voter outreach

I agree, Trump should go to urban areas (with as much careful planning and security as feasible), and give the same outreach speech that he gave in Michigan, over and over (with minor variations to keep it fresh). If the audience is disruptive, it will simply reinforce the impression that the radical elements are too extreme to even allow Trump to make his case, and some of the more moderate voters who are there will give Trump credit for at least trying (as will many other voters nationwide).

Yes...Well said.............

I hope Trump doesn’t try to appeal to BLM, NAACP, Welfare Rights advocates or Mothers Who Raised Criminals. There are so many terrific African-Americans like Ben Carson, Thomas Sowell, Larry Elder, and the most pro-Constitution Justice on the Supreme Court.

Anti-Business, Anti-Police, pro-Big Labor Democrat policies like raising the minimum wage will lead to more poverty and unemployment. Racial preferences were wrong in the 1950s and they are wrong today.

Better economy is better for everyone.

True but that is not what they want to hear

Trump is wasting time and energy

“Trump is wasting time and energy “

Actually he is making excellent use of his time & resources. He is not following the establishment’s way of campaigning. Thousands of people come see him as he does 2 events almost daily. Trump has thousands of people watching his rallies online & millions of followers on social media who see his adds & speeches. Donald Trump is kicking ass & he is going to be our next president.

Vote Trump 2016

“Trump is wasting time and energy”

Probably. But he can still cut into the minority support. If he can pull in 15% of the black vote and 35% of the Hispanic vote, it will hurt Hillary.

[Snowybear]

Trump is pulling 20% of the black vote in a recent FL poll. Multiply that nation-wide.

Going to urban centers will be...interesting.

[TexasCruzin]

And in that same poll besides 20% of blacks, Trump is getting 40% of Hispanics. Hillary gets 50% Hispanics and Trump 40%.

[Snowybear]

If that translates nation wide, which it will for the most part, the election is over.

[bray]

Every black vote he gets means Harpy has to find 2 more. It is a brilliant strategy.

Pray America wakes

[uncbob]

I doubt it
Come election day the black vote will be 99% democrat as usual

Only thing that can help the culture is internal change which at this point is probably impossible

No government OUTREACH ( whatever that means )is going to work

[Harpotoo]

Planning???

He’s already started!!! Blind-eyed ignorant MSM!

Go Trump Go!

[hinckley buzzard]

In 2004 Bush got 16% of the black vote in Ohio, insuring his victory in the general election. Your fatalistic attitude is a major source of republican failure for the last 40 years or so. Many FReepers have adopted a similar negative attitude toward winning. I have never understood the virtue of conceding 12% of the vote. But hey if it makes you feel better to lose than to win, who am I to judge.
