LOL at the OP regarding minorities and especially black Americans backing of Trump. How many black people did they poll and where were the callers living? Also, the only thing I saw on the "Clout" website was that "444 likely Republican" voters were contacted. Of course black people who are Republicans will support a Republican candidate and FWIW, I am black and I know quite a few very conservative Christians who would vote for Ben Carson due to his reputation amongst black Americans as being a godly man. Most non-republican/conservative black people will support neither Carson or Trump.

This was not a random sampling including an equal amount of likely GOP, Dem, and independent voters.

If you all think that Trump or any GOP candidate will get more than 10% of the black vote, you are smoking something that causes hallucinations lol.

Agree with the above. 90% plus of America's black population is monolithic and some might say brainwashed. That will never change, which we know by looking at large urban hellholes that continue to reelect the same Democrat politicians notwithstanding the downward spiral in living conditions there.

This was just a Primary poll, not even a General Election poll and the amount of blacks in the poll was 10. The OP took a Primary poll of TEN people and tried to suggest it meant something for the General LMAO

It worked when we said "Trump needs points. Trump needs Points, Trump needs Points." Thanks.

I bet most everyone here would like to "Fail" like he has, and end up with the measly Billions that his failure produced. You must have never failed as bad as he did, so how is your fortune doing?

Please link to a speech where Trump has advocated repealing the minimum wage (or rolling it back to $3/hour). Or link to an issues paper on his website that outlines this.

If by success you mean inheriting millions, and making less money then if he had simply invested them in index funds......that seems to be somewhat of a failure.

1:18 mark, our wages are too high. He won't repeal it, however he thinks its already too high.

Read what you just wrote. Good, now read it again. Ok now, do you see how ridiculous you come across? Hopefully one of your resolutions for 2016 is to fix that jealousy, it's not healthy.
