The left is going to have a meltdown if more black celebrities say things like this.

There are plenty of whites who believe voting Republican is “racist” by definition because that is what they are taught. If they start seeing more things like these comments, and more candidates running like John James in Michigan, that will make them have to think.

It is not just about one race in particular that this false narrative effects. The narrative may disproportionally affect the black community but there a lot of people across the board that believe these lies.

“Well, welcome to what it’s like to be a conservative :-)”

Honestly, I know the venom afforded anybody conservative, but multiply the hate and vitriol by a factor of 911 times a thousand and that is what blacks receive from other blacks and all liberals if they are ever outed. They can and do lose freinds and family and even jobs and careers for being conservative. It does make me grind my teeth when liberals crow about how there is no “diversity” in conservative movement...when its like gee...you guys are absolutely effective in making anybody who even slightly questions liberal dogma into an instant pariah with all of their freinds and neighbors heaping scorn and threatening (and acting out) violence upon them...but yeah, its values that frighten them off (right)

I have tickets, and I might go to the Rallye on 4/28 here in MI.

So what if PDJT brings John James up on stage and endorses him?

What if he brings Kanye on this trip?

The reason I say this is I got nothing but $h!+ here on FR when I brought up either James or Judge Young running for the Conyers seat. Well laddefreakinda, after all the tweets today by all the rappers that (including Obama did nothing in 8 yrs ) it looks like I wasn't crazy after all.

It is happening and it is beyond huge..

The demonrats see the handwriting on the wall...a lot of blacks are becoming woke...that’s the reason the rats want open borders to replenish their ranks with new voters flocking to the US for free stuff, The ‘free’ stuff only cost them their humanity, their dignity, and their family.....

Bottom line.......

Conservatives want to see everyone successful

Liberals want to see everyone dependent

More and more blacks are seeing that the democrat party is not really interested in them achieving the American Dream. That party only wants them hooked on empty promises and a dependable voting block. It’s the biggest scam in American history.

if there ever was a time to revolt, it was when Joe biden claimed the GOP’ll ‘put you back in chains’.
and yet they took it

More and more black people are waking up and realizing that the Democratic Party just uses and abuses them. Their grasp on almost an entire race is slipping. And none too soon.

This question is decided at the margins. There were a significant number of blacks out there in 2016 willing to buy Trump’s comment of, “what have you got to lose?” I believe it to be the case in fact that the difference between Obama’s black votes and Hillary’s was bigger than Trump’s margin of victory in Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, etc., Hillary would be President right now. The GOP doesn’t need “the black vote”, they just need the black vote to be a little less monolithic. Anything that just even opens up the question as debatable is a huge win.

“If the GOP were to get as little as 15% the Democrats would be in very serious trouble. That should be doable.”

Agree. Would like to be wrong on this one.

Splitting with the left is the ultimate act of defiance for young blacks today. It also takes courage, as there is a price to be paid for breaking out of group-think.

I know this on an all too personal level.

He is getting so much crap. It divides the other tweets, which are 10% “people should be able to have different opinions” and 90% “the other side are monsters.”

They don’t understand how Nazi-like (and I HATE TO USE THAT REFERENCE BUT IT WORKS HERE, HOLD ON) their fight is. Either people can differ and still be respected, or one side (usually the “in power” side because they don’t need courage, they are fully protected) simply dehumanizes the other side so they can kill them like cockroaches.

You Trump-hating black people don’t consider the Trump supporters to be of different mind, or even misguided. You instead characterize them as less than human. That is what the Nazis did to the Jews. My great grandparents were “vernichtet.” Not killed by the state, EXTERMINATED by the state. Like pests.

Be careful with your not simply allowing people to have differing views. If you are correct about Trump, let both sides speak. You will be proven right, won’t you? So let your opinion stand with that of another. Stop dehumanizing your opponent. It’s not a good trait on you.
