Young Black Voters No Longer Loyal to the Democrat Party

More and more, Gen Z black voters are questioning why blacks should be loyal to the Democrat Party that they see as severely lacking in appeal.

==========================================================================

According to a report at Politico, many of these young blacks born after 1990 are wondering just why they should be all fired up about the Democrats when every single Democrat-run city in America is an absolute, bankrupt mess.

Certainly, blacks in the U.S. are still holding onto the outmoded idea that the Democrat Party is the “party of civil rights,” a false notion that gained steam in the 1970s. But things seem to be on the verge of changing.

A 2019 Pew Research Center study, for instance, found that liberals make up a majority of the Democratic voting bloc, but blacks are not so ready to claim to be liberal. 43 percent of them said they identified as moderate and 25 percent even identified as conservative.

Some of these blacks who consider themselves more conservative are realizing that the Democrat Party stands against families, for one. And that activism against traditional marriage and families is detrimental to the black community.

Many of these young black conservatives are organizing and talking amongst themselves about how bad the Democrat agenda has been for them.

As Fox News noted:

For example, Congress’ 1994 Crime Bill is being scrutinized anew by Gen Zers across the country. Many feel the bill, which Biden co-authored, disproportionately affects Black communities — even though the ban on assault weapons was popular among Black lawmakers almost 30 years ago.

Young Black conservatives say their support for Trump is based on policies that work for them: the First Step Act, the FUTURE Act and economic success leading to historically low Black unemployment numbers.

This growing movement is important for Republicans. Because, even though the Democrats have been able to count on the near total, blind support of blacks in the past, with elections often as close as they have been recently, even if 10 to 30 percent of blacks stray from the Democrats, it could hurt the leftist party’s chances of winning elections.

The dims have done a good job of radicalizing young blacks. They don’t like Biden because he is White.

Young, upwardly mobile blacks with college degrees and high paying jobs, and even athletes with 6 and 7 figure salaries, know that the Dems will take everything they have rightfully earned and they don’t like it...................

Dems have a token black woman for VP candidate. Seems that should be enough to keep them happy. LOL!

Until the scourge of unconstitutional Affirmative Action is done away then the “earned” part will always be in question.

There is absolutely no chance of young black voters no longer being loyal to the Democrat party. As Ol’ Joe explained a few months ago, if you aren’t going to vote for him, “you ain’t black.”.

Therefore whoever these young people are who aren’t voting for Biden, we can be certain that they ain’t black.

So what is the Democrat party so concerned about?

He would not have said that IF he didn’t have some clue as to whether the blacks are leaving the Democrat Plantation in droves.

IF things were as they have been for 60+ years he’d have ignored them as per usual SOP.............

The bubble of 90% of the votes going to the Dems has to burst at some point, although it took a while for it to happen.

American minorities have nothing to expect from Liberalism.

Hand-outs were always a bad idea and now, more than ever, are not going to take minorities where they want to be...

I think that lots of minorities are increasingly dissatisfied with and offended BY the patronizing rhetoric and with the dehumanizing Liberal 'premise' behind it.
