NY Gov. Kathy Hochul exposes her contempt for Americans, calling Trump supporters ‘clowns’
American Thinker ^ | 05/24/2024 | Andrea Widburg

Yesterday, Donald Trump had an epic rally in the Bronx, a mainly-minority Democrat enclave in New York. Not only was the attendance off the charts, but it also rattled New York’s Democrat establishment. We know that because NY’s Democrat Governor Kathy Hochul lost control of herself and called Trump supporters “clowns.”

The Bronx is one of New York City’s five boroughs. As of 2021, it was only 14.3% white. Mostly, the Bronx is Hispanic (56.4%) and black (33.8%), along with a handful of Asians. This visualizes the Bronx population:

The Bronx has long been an unabashedly Democrat stronghold. In 1980, even as New York state broke with its long Democrat-voting history and went all in for Ronald Reagan, the Bronx supported Jimmy Carter (64%). The same thing happened in 1984, as New York again voted for Reagan and the Bronx backed Mondale (66%).

The Bronx’s Democrat loyalty has continued unabated since then. In the list below, you can see how the intensity of support for Democrats hasn’t just been stable but has grown over the decades:

Didn’t Reagan campaign in the Bronx back in the day?

The Dems forced Trump to campaign in NYC.
It would be fun if NY State votes Trump.
Since upstate NY is quite Republican, Trump just need pretty respectable showing in NYC to win the state.

We are already aware of that. It no longer affects us, because they prove on a daily basis who the real clowns are, and it’s them. Let them all talk away. Laugh at them. Nothing makes them madder and more prone to make mistakes than to laugh off their name calling, as you throw their insult right back at them.

Trump supporters should start wearing clown noses. Embrace it like “deplorables”.

Kathy Hoch-a-loogie is Shrillary with a fraction of the political sense, and Shrillary obviously doesn’t have much of that.

A large group of Black and minority Trump supporters should put out a video immediately explaining to the public that the racist Hochul thinks that they are clowns- and hochul’s opponent should run the ad non stop next election

By Trump campaigning in NYC the fire has been lit. I predict the minorities will want to ride the wave in greater numbers. If Trump flips NY Red I just may melt with happiness come Election Day.

I think the Bronx rally was a watershed moment in the campaign.

Exactly. This is big picture stuff.

What do you think the talk on the street in NYC is today? It’s all Trump. Engaging the minority community is something the Stupid Party (Republicans) have been afraid to do for decades.

He had neighborhood influencers there. He spent a ton of time talking about his various huge projects in New York that everyone there was familiar with but may not have known that he had spent his entire life making New York City better for them.

A friend of mine is heavily involved in Republican politics in Michigan. He’s become an advisor to many candidates and he’s new to the game. He’s been working strongly on ethnic engagement. Too many Stupidicans aren’t taking his advice.
