African-Americans increasingly associate GOP with Trump, racist rhetoric

Democratic wins in the 2018 midterms were driven largely by African American voters — particularly black women — who increasingly associate the GOP with President Trump’s perceived hostility toward people of color and immigrants, according to an analysis released Monday.

The report by the NAACP, the racial justice nonprofit Advancement Project, and the political action group African American Research Collaborative found that across competitive elections 90 percent of black voters supported Democratic House candidates, compared to 53 percent of voters overall. It also found 91 percent of black women, 86 percent of black men and 50 percent of white voters believe Trump and the GOP are using toxic rhetoric to divide the nation.

“This poll dispels the myth of black voter apathy,” said Judith Browne Dianis, Advancement Project executive director. “Clearly black voters are not only engaged, but they are central to the resistance against Trumpism.”

Several years on a talk radio show (might have been the Lars Larson show - not sure) a caller who identified himself as a black man was clearly upset over the Democrats. He said many blacks don’t support Democrat positions on abortion and homosexuality. The host asked if he had voted for Obama. The caller replied “yes”. The host asked why. The caller responded “because he is one of us”.

So there you go.

It’s different because recently it has been around 96-97%. 86-90% is a notable improvement.

There is also no difference in athletic ability between the races either. Soon all the latinos will flood the NBA, and Football fields because all races are equal at all things.

I am not a racist, I simply spoke the truth. Look up the studies, Somalians and Australian Aborigine

[Alas Babylon!]

Because I am a white person who ALWAYS votes, and votes conservatives.

But the idiots are dragging me down WITH them.

I’m fighting as best I can.

Please suggest what else to do, short of giving up!

I agree with you. Every time I see a black person on TV or hear one on the radio complaining about discrimination it all sounds like blah, blah, blah to me now. If they can’t see how badly they’re being used by the white liberal hierarchy that’s their problem now. Our side has shone the light on their Democrat masters, but they still refuse to leave the plantation!

You're wrong and statistics show it is an uneven race in intelligence. Ashkenazim Jews are the highest. But it is Thanksgiving so we will avoid exposing your ignorance.
