It’s real! A third poll reveals 33% nonwhite support for Trump
American Thinker ^ | 12/02/2019 | Thomas Lifson

This seems almost too good to be true….

p>A few days ago, two polls—Rasmussen and Emerson -- came out showing that black approval for Trump had reached 34%. Now comes confirmation from another poll NPR/PBS Marist, this time aggregating blacks with other racial minorities, and finding an almost identical rate of support of 33%. Sundance provides the results of the poll in a chart:

As he notes, “…the Marist poll was 1,224 voters with a 26 percent minority (black and Hispanic) share of the poll – so that’s a significant poll of minority voters.

While the Trump economy has dramatically improved wages and employment opportunities for minorities who are disproportionately found in lower wage occupations, that has been true for at least a couple of years. Why are 3 polls now shoring a dramatically higher level of support than polls only a few months ago?

One possible answer that occurs to me is that the spectacle of the kangaroo court House hearings aimed at impeaching President Trump has resonated with blacks and other minorities who feel that the criminal justice system is biased against them, generating sympathy for a many they see being railroaded by “the system” (in this case House Democrats).

Whatever the cause in the surge of approval for Trump, this may be part of a historic realignment, one that could destroy the coalition that has kept the Democrats viable at a national level.

This isn’t dumb luck. It has been PDJT strategy since day 1. PDJT has also been courting Jewish voters. He has one chance to win a majority of course, and so his dim witted adversaries claim that he is wasting his political capital. But if he flips even 5-10% of these demographics he gets > 50.1% of the popular vote and wins an electoral college landslide.

He also puts these groups indefinitely into play going forward and destroy the Dems whole narrative around having a popular vote mandate.

Then, all of a sudden, the Voting Rights Act of 1965 didn't seem like such a good idea.

And we have a year before the election.

It’ll be above 50% by then.

And keep in mind key battleground states such as Florida, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Michigan. All of these states have big black population.

The most the kangaroo court goes on the more blacks see Trump as one of them. Abused by the courts. They love the employment opportunities however seeing Trump as suffering the same treatment in the courts as they bonds them to him. This is why MO enters the race at the convention to pull black voters from him.

Exactly! Trump doesn’t need to win a “majority” of minority votes. He just has to “TAKE AWAY” a small percentage from the Democrats.

The Democrats RELY on a YUGE percentage of that vote to average in with their other voters who have lower percentages. They can’t afford to lose another 10 % or 15 % of the minority vote.

They didn’t show up in the Louisiana, Kentucky, Virginia elections, despite Trump’s heavy campaigning. Waste of time trying to court these people while ignoring the base.

Prez Trump then candidate, told Blacks “Vote for me. What the hell do you have to lose?” Looks like they are taking him up on it.

The “Orange man bad” meme was quite less than genius.

They gave Trump a color, said that color of a man is bad and have been inescapably, meanly persecuting him continuously.

Ahh, the unintended negative consequences for proggies. But, they’re such smart people. ROTFLMAO!

This poll is one of my two biggest arguments as to why Michelle is in the race.

The other is the ‘what do they have to lose’ argument, meaning the Dems.

Interesting, but if you're reading this, just show up in November 2020.

It just proves for many decades the professional politicians were little more than corrupt professional con-men who did little but line their own pockets with cash and power. It took an outsider, a non-government hack to show America how to get things done and expose all these rotten insider political posers.

Even 25% support in swing states...the states that DJT wasn’t expected to carry in ‘16...will mean lights out for whoever the Rats send to the slaughter.

Don’t know if this translates to votes. History says otherwise. Blacks are sensitive to unfair treatment and any foll can see the Schiff circus is anything but fair. It does put the rats in a box. An old white guy or Poofter Pete won’t cut it with the brothers.

I think their vote for Trump will be higher than normal but I don’t see it spilling anywhere into other Republican races.

There’s no sign of it and they do not see Trump as a Republican.

Heck I don’t even see Trump as a republican sometimes because he shows a backbone so often :-)

Traditional groups considered minorities as voting blocks, created by dems to enable finger pointing and accusations while giving away free shit for votes, thus creating the actual minority classes.

Decades of this, and when President Trump comes along, willing to fight for the USA, actually making life better for all who wish to participate in the dream, and are willing to work for it, they, the people, are starting to realize the actual gains, in economics, in self reliance, self esteem, and the bull they had been spoon fed for the same decades.

These polls are tip of the proverbial iceberg.
