Disaster Looms for Democrats as Trump Goes ‘Bigly’ With Blacks....

While the media remains obsessed with an increasingly pointless impeachment by the House and the even more dubious removal of the president by the Senate, political news of genuine electoral importance has slipped in under the rug.

“Game changer” may be one of the great clichés of our time, but this would actually be one. If even remotely true, Democrats should be having a nervous breakdown. They depend more than ever on African Americans for success in elections. If Trump were to garner even 18 percent of the black vote, he would easily win in 2020. If he had anything close to the 34 percent, it would be a runaway, a disaster for the Democrats.

Polls are fickle, as we know, and are often distorted by the skewed nature of the questions; but in this case, several factors lead me to believe there is truth to this.

In the larger political schema, this is about a turning away from the “identity politics” (actually a new form of segregation) so beloved by the Democrats and back to the color-blind society envisioned by Martin Luther King Jr. Wouldn’t it be ironic if the idealism of those days was finally realized with the help of Trump or an alliance of Trump and West? Stranger things have happened.

16.5 million blacks voted in 2016, a fall-off from 2012...

I think that’s the way it’s going to go. Don’t look for black folks to vote GOP. Instead, expect them to look at the rat candidates and decide to stay home.

If black folks stay home that counts as a negative vote for the rats.

Trump campaigned in KY, LA for Republicans; Democrats won both gubernatorial races.

You are right; just because one says Trump is doing a good job does not mean they will vote for Trump. The capital “D” means so much to the American people: D’s swept the U.S. House in 2018.
