Trump hits new poll highs with Black, Hispanic voters. What to make of it?

Either former president Donald Trump’s standing in early 2024 polls is inflated, or we are headed for a sizable realignment in how non-White voters cast their ballots.

Multiple polls in recent weeks have shown Trump performing historically well among Black and Hispanic voters in head-to-head matchups with President Biden, helping put him neck-and-neck with Biden in a way he rarely was during their 2020 matchup.

Across five high-quality polls that have broken out non-White voters in the past month, Trump is averaging 20 percent of Black voters and 42 percent of Hispanic voters.

Actually it is only prudish white women who watch mainstream media. Those knotheads think everything they hear on TV News shows is all true and official.

Many don’t even tweet. But GMA tells them all about mean tweets and Trump has a wife who isn’t ugly and a prude like they are. Jealousy plays into this.

They can like Jill because she dresses like they do and she is a doctor. Hah haha!

What to make of it? Blacks and Hispanics have a front row seat to demonrat insanity.

He’s not going to win the black vote.

But it looks pretty clear he is going to carve slices of it out of the Dems.

The 2016 election had Trump with 8% of the black vote. The 2020 election, same. Biden got an extra 2% over Hillary — 90 vs 88.

Stop thinking traditional politics. These gains have nothing to do with black voters deciding they want lower spending and taxes. These gains are STRICTLY about the prosecutions brought against Trump. The black vote switching their votes are enraged about this.

As for Hispanics, Trump won 29% of their vote in 2016. In 2020 it was 32%. Hispanics are now 10% of the national electorate. They are very regional. Whereas black voters are somewhat homogenous across regions, Hispanics concentrate and that 32% was a national number. Trump did worse with them in Arizona and better in Florida, where “Hispanics” mean Cuban generations. This is not new.

So the posters above saying Trump will NEVER win the black vote and should concentrate on Hispanics are partly right and partly wrong. He won’t win the majority of black votes when he’s starting from 8%, but lifting that number to 20% is a huge piece of the total pie he denies Democrats.

Conclusion — blacks are a bit enraged at the prosecutions. It’s moving votes Hispanics are regional and there is no specific national issue that will move their votes. In general, in 2020, they gave him high marks for the economy and did not blame him for the virus killing people, but that is very regional. Having the Cubans love him doesn’t move votes in Arizona.

The black vote is the richer vein of ore to mine. 12% of electorate and not regional.

Lawfare, harassment, and the mug shot.

We’ve heard it all before. He won’t get more than 10% of black males and 4% black females.

“high quality polls”. Rich Baris of the Big Data Poll has been screaming this for quite a while.

They don't care about the prosecutions. I think it's a combination of Black men seeing Donald Trump as an Alpha Male so his unique personality appeals to them a d Joe Biden's crappy economy. We're paying $3.50 for gas. Under Trump, it was around $2.00.

Trump is doing better. Maybe 15% - 20% of the black men. But he's losing support from the Whites, especially White women. So in the end, he is losing more votes.

NO!!!

What makes America strong and wealthy is CONSTITUTIONAL FREEDOM FROM GOVERNMENT!!!!


That is your job and my job. Trump can’t do everything.

Too many people think Trump is a magic bullet. Vote for him and everything is fixed.

It is going to take YEARS to turn things around, there is much work to do.

But Trump is the START.

As he did in 2020, Trump will CRUSH the opposition. The only remaining question is whether the Delusional Lying Leftist Democrats will succeed in stealing the 2024 Election.

Uh the Jackson unhappiness index is through the roof - prices of gas and standard - not premium - steak. And don’t talk about substutes. When I want to eat cheap I used to eat chicken. Some arbitrage folks got in ahead of me and said - nope not this - bug meat for you.

Marrying a woman who shares the same values helps.

Also, second and especially third and later generations of Hispanics, are fully assimilated into the American culture.

Successful and assimilated second and third generation people with brown skin is something the racist Democrats never thought would happen.

The selfish single issue women vote is killing us. They have moved countless elections within cheat range.
