Stockholm Syndrome. Hard breaking the mental chains and getting off the ‘Rat Plantation to real freedom and opportunity. Many have done it, some just can’t.

So let ‘em sit on their stoops and go on being dupes.

With their three or four street murders a week, just to keep the numbers down.

A “Progressive” branding campaign with these successful Ten Minutes of Hate routines

The article is written from the perspective of the left, to rally their troops. However, it notes that “A 77 percent majority of black Americans say Trump deserves “only some” or “hardly any” credit for the 5.5 percent unemployment rate among black adults compared with 20 percent who say Trump deserves significant credit.”. If 20% of the black vote goes for Trump, the Dems will lose. They are terrified of this. They need at least 90% support to be comfortable. President Trump only received 8% of the black vote in 2016 - https://www.mic.com/articles/159402/here-s-a-break-down-of-how-african-americans-voted-in-the-2016-election

It’s a WAPO/DNC poll written by the DNC’s personal hack.

Very successful hate routines. It’s time for republicans to tell personal stories of people who have benefitted from opportunity zones. Most people, especially the easily brainwashed, do not understand statistics. Tell them a story. Don’t just tell them over and over about what is highest and lowest. Lowest probably sounds bad to many math-challenged people, even if it is lowest UNemployment.

I don’t believe this for a minute; the dirty secret is that blacks are aware of their displacement by Hispanics in many sectors of American life, and they resent it - A LOT.

Expect these pieces to run until election day, in the hopes of returning the blacks to the Dem column; I’m surprised at how many blacks I know are supportive of Trump.

Just like there was a reformation of the Church there needs to be a reformation of the American black narrative of victomology.

Obviously a biased poll.

My experience is telling me that black people are turning to Trump in record numbers, especially the young, and especially those who use the Internet (but I’m being redundant).

If you interact with your information, you are exercising more of your God-given talents than when you go comatose in front of a TV set. It’s the coldness of the TV medium that is the problem. Force-feeding. (McLuhan was a little off about that one, but he was living in a time of primitive TV technology.)

I don’t believe it either. I think a lot of black people will vote for him in 2020 even if they do lie in polls and in public.

Narrative crap, but what do the D-party coalition of POCs think about African Americans because supposedly whitey is dying and no longer relevant.

Such a long article to reinforce what everyone is supposed to know, president Trump is racist and all black people know it. Wonder why they feel this bs polls needs all this explaining?

They should resent it if you are talking about the millions of illegals. Black Americans and their ancestors have been in this country for hundreds of years and they shouldn’t allow themselves to be pushed aside or taken advantage of as taxpayers by illegals.

If a person remains chained to their past they will never be able to move forward.

Yellow journalism the Democrat Klan has never liked the prospect of black people voting Republican. Going back to the founding of the KKK.
