Former NFL player Jack Brewer once raised campaign money for President Obama, but now hes among the increasing number of black voters who support President Trump.
There is an awakening going on right now in the country, Mr. Brewer said of black voters who traditionally support Democrats. Im going to take the guy whos actually putting in the policies that are going to make life better for my young black son and my young black daughter, versus somebody who gives me lip service like, unfortunately, the Democrats have done for our community for years.
Mr. Trump and his reelection team are aggressively courting black voters amid a strong economy that has reduced black unemployment to 5.5%, lowest in history. The Trump campaign launched its Black Voices for Trump coalition in Atlanta last month.
The Democrats have let you down, Mr. Trump told black supporters at the time. Theyve dismissed you. Theyve hurt you. Theyve sabotaged you for far too long.
The campaign also has paid for full-page, full-color advertisements promoting Mr. Trump in 11 local black newspapers across the nation, and radio spots on urban radio stations nationwide.
Theres some evidence that the presidents policies and campaign outreach are making inroads with black voters. Three polls in November showed Mr. Trumps job-approval rating among black voters in the 30% to 35% range, a significant increase over other surveys that have generally shown black voter support of less than 10%.
Ill remind you, the president received 8% of the black vote in 2016, said a senior Trump campaign official.
The president and his campaign advisers know that poll numbers and approval ratings dont always translate into votes, but they think Mr. Trump has a good chance to significantly increase the level of support he receives from black voters in 2020.

Nothing ever stopped Blacks from leaving the LBJs Plantation. It was and still is a way life the vast majority embrace.
I dont buy the notion that Blacks are too ignorant to know better. Instead, I believe were seeing a cultural shift that stems from greater self-confidence and individualism a willingness to leave the old & hopeless LBJ culture.
Blacks are also conservative. And the Dems gender terrorism agenda isnt making a positive impression.
President Trump has released the kraken! God bless the black community and their economic progress.
For example In Philly they will only get 102% of the vote instead of the 115% Obama received this time - sad trombone sound
“While I dont expect the GOP to ever get a significant number of Black voters I think the Democrat share of that voting bloc will begin to drop below 90%. Even the loss of 10% of the Black vote is dangerous to the RATS!”
And that’s why the Dimocratz want to allow in every Thomaso, Ricardo and Geraldo; to try to win the numbers game since they know they’re losing blacks.
I think there may be more or less swing depending on the Dem ticket; when Deval Patrick entered the race, I assumed he just wanted to be someone’s VP pick - because they have to have a black face on that ticket.
Most educated blacks figured out the Kenyan brother shafted them for their support
I’ll believe this when I actually see the Blacks leave the plantation.
This is one American who happens to be black that will never vote for another Democrat as long as they pursue their current policies. Their policies have not only enslaved black people to government dependence, but also genocide from organizations like Planned Parenthood who have supported abortion particularly in black communities. Margaret Sanger, who helped organize Planned Parenthood what is frequently a guest at Ku Klux Klan meetings. No way will I vote for another Democrat.
He'll get 25% of the male vote, but only 6% of the female vote. That still puts him over the top for 2020.
Well said and true, FRiend.
Merry Christmas!
