I play hoops over the noon hour. Today’s discussion among three of my teammates (twenty-something black fairly recent transplants from CA, NJ, and IL —they work retail and light industrial up here to the northern plains) revolved around the election.
One indicated they were going to vote independent because there needs to be a wake up call. The most passionate (from LA) emphatically told him that was a waste and that they gotta choose between Lucifer and Satan and that damn sure he was voting Trump and that was a real wakeup.
The third thought trump would be better for jobs and that at least he was talking to blacks and that he wasn’t making empty promises. The second jumped back in saying that Clinton and the Dems don’t talk to them for four years and then booty call them at 2AM.
Said “no shit” that black people aren’t getting in line to vote for Clinton because she ain’t Obama. The other tagged in that they wouldn’t for Obama either— more black men died under his term and he’s just screwed things up and that talk about his legacy was crap. Obama care sucks and that it was cheaper back when you just went to the doctor and paid for it.
This isn’t the first time I’ve heard them say these type of things but was a little surprised at the passion and how they were paying attention. Wish I would have asked where they got their news— esp when they went on to call ‘Lil Wayne a fool and that he’s got too much money to worry about social issues and that Cliven Bundy got off because he’s a white supremacist and that if black people were out there they’d be running them down with tanks like they are doing to the pipeline protesters...
That might be what I watched..for several hours...pretty sure I was c;lose ti the end...
His long sermon in Chicago gave lots of detail on that and many other things!
fyi
Thanks for that info. good to read that.
