Another indicator to me is that blacks are attending his rallies in higher numbers, many with “Blacks for Trump” type of sings. Democrats have only promised jobs for jobs, but Trump has delivered.

“In the 2015 primary for Governor, 1.14 million (or 39%) turned out to vote. Last night, turnout increased to 45%, for a total turnout of 1.34 million voters. This was a conservative turnout: while 25% of the early vote was black, JMC estimates that due to 35% Election Day turnout in white precincts and 28% Election Day turnout in the black precincts, 27% of last night’s electorate was black. In other words, an estimated total electorate that was 26.5% black, which is on the low side in Louisiana in terms of base Democratic voter intensity.”

I would argue with no real facts to back it up, that there is actually no “black” vote. I argue that there is the black vote of the deep blue big cities and the black vote of the urban smaller cities.

It is the black voters in the later group that are voting for Trump. Taken as a percentage of that small city group of black voters, the percentage is actually greater.

Anecdotal, but my husband and I were surprised to see a black man wearing a Blexit teeshirt Thurs evening at the local brewery. We live in a small town in a gerrymandered predominately black Democrat Congressional district in NC. It is a true blue Dem district. I am now mildly optimistic that Blexit may be real and eyes are opening.

Black and hispanic males love Alpha males, and Donald J. Trump is the Ultimate Big Dawg Alpha Male.

Combine that with a bunch of beta-weasels trying to take him down....and failing miserably, Big Daddy Trump could get up to 20% of the admitted black vote (and probably 60% of the black male vote if you could see who was voting the privacy of the voting booth).

“Louisiana is already red. No big deal”.

It’s no big deal that more Blacks are rejecting the Democrats?

You don’t get it.

It IS a big deal.

More and more Blacks are walking off the Plantation.

I hope blacks are waking up to the fact that the Democrats are abandoning them just like they turned on white, blue-collar workers. They want to replace them with illegal aliens.

I read thru #29 and was amazed. No mention of TBN or the integration of churches. The Black voting population is spread between all Black churches, integrated churches and no church. Guess which group has the most Conservatives or Republicans.

The Black voting population is spread between all Black poor communities, all Black middle class communitites and integrated communities that are neither Black or white.
Guess which is most Republican.

The Black voting population is spread between those on welfare, those who work (or used to work) in the government and government funded agency sector and those who work in the voluntary private sector. Guess which is most Republican.

The Black voting population is spread among those who tune in Christian TV/radio, BET and Black TV/radio and those who tune in mass media NBC,ABC,CBS. Guess which is most Republican.

From the Black perspective there is identity politics and those who are obsessed with it. There is issue politics and those who are obsessed with it. There is friendship politics and those who practice what MLK preached. Man looks on outward appearance. God looks on the heart. Guess which is more Republican.

The message needs to be that illegal immigrants are stealing jobs from blacks.

Full stop.

No pandering, no promises, just that simple message.

Treat black men with respect—and they will respect you.

When Black America en masse returns to the Republican Party--i.e. the true Republican Party: the Trump Republican Party--we will know that America's headlong plunge into the abyss of decadence has been reversed and that America is soaring into a new era of ascendency.

If the “black vote” goes towards President Trump in 2020 by 20% or more .... it will be an election landslide.

zero attribution in that tweet by some random dude ... no confirmation using all search engines ... would be nice if this is true, but so far, no reason to believe that it is ... will reserve judgement until/if some actual facts emerge ...

Will some African Americans who can’t bring themselves to vote Republican stay home? The answer is a clear resounding YES!! In 2016 Trump won Michigan purely on the strength of African Americans in Detroit’s Wayne County staying home. He won by the state by just 13,000 votes.

The fall off of voters from 2012 to 2016 in Wayne County, which is 38% African American with most living in Detroit, was 37,364. More than enough for Clinton to have won a close election if just half of these ALWAYS VOTE DEMOCRAT voters turned out; but they didn’t. When people or groups change parties especially from Democrat to Republican it is not uncommon for them to sit out the first election. Now that Trump has delivered for African Americans it is not a stretch to say he will get 15 to 18% of that vote and further benefit from a similar stay home group. In the zero sum game the Democrats themselves have created, that 15 to 18% will come directly out of the Democrat column. Game over.

The stay at homes were the black males that would not vote for a white woman even if the alternative was satan himself...

The dems still have not learned their lesson, which can be seen by Chief Fauxcahontas leading in the polls. Now, if the dems do what I think they will do and get Big Mike the Wookie to run against Trump, the Black vote will break 95% dem yet again. There is the double edged sword of identity politics and why more and more, the dems are willing to throw the Blacks under the bus in favor of women, gays, and hispanics. You gotta keep enough of a herd in the victim category to come up with your electoral margins and energizing outrages d’jure...

This is the end of the Dems. They took blacks for rubes, and they are not.

“surprised to see a black man wearing a Blexit teeshirt”

Candace Owens has been bold in her Blexit movement. I don’t see as much of her as I used to (after she left Turning Point). I hope and assume she’s spending time and energy in areas where Blexit is more important than it is in TN.

There’s more to it. Black people have a perception that Trump cares about them. This makes black women very reachable.
