Which tells me this "journalist" is full of crap. Black females are the most monolithic block for dems that exists. There will be no shift, and they will turn out and vote the same as they have for the past 3 elections. Black males may shift to Trump in a small way, maybe 5% more than 2016, but not a significant move. The group with potential to shift right are legal Latino immigrants. The group likely to add votes to the left are illegal Latino immigrants, and today SCOTUS gave them the sign to go ahead and vote. But as always, it's all about getting YOUR side to the polls by exciting and motivating them.
The black women vote, and black male vote for that matter is going to vote overwhelmingly D in the general, so for the general election who cares.
Where AA votes matter, are during D primaries. Since the 1970s when they started tracking this stuff, no D has won the D nomination without also winning the black vote.. So, that’s the truth... during primary season they will fall all over themselves to win their support, because unless they are stupid, they know they have to win the black vote to win the nomination.
This is why Powder Puff Pete is a non starter... For all their crying over christian white men, you will not see a more anti homosexual block than african americans as a whole.
