I don't know, maybe because she's one of Trump's biggest mouthpieces??

No, the topic is who's who of people endorsed Trump, including Azealia Banks.

Whether or not you voted for her is irrelevant, because what was wished upon her was disgusting. However, I understand you are willing to overlook and deflect from it, simply because she's endorsing Trump.

Lord knows if she endorsed Hillary after saying this, you would start yet another thread on this forum about it.

Rapper Azealia Banks Endorses Trump - Says Hillary Talks to Black People "Like We're Pets"

What a stand up young lady Azealia is.

'You're a p**i and a f****t!' Rapper Azealia Banks launches vile racist and homophobic Twitter tirade against Zayn Malik... as she is dropped from UK festival


How fitting. This should appease the non-PC, say what's on your mind, crowd.

Now, before people get in their attack mode here, this thread is not about Rick Perry, Trump, or the phase of the moon. It's about these simple words he said:

"He is not a perfect man. But what I do believe is that he loves this country and he will surround himself with capable, experienced people and he will listen to them," Perry said Thursday.


"He wasn't my first choice, wasn't my second choice, but he is the people's choice," Perry added."

Again, what I feel the most important words are here:

"He wasn't my first choice, wasn't my second choice, but he is the people's choice," Perry added.

Those 6 words are the beginning and end in my view on what's most important.

Paul Ryan and others, take note.
This quote is from what Perry was thinking:

"OK, I need to say something positive about Donald, to justify an endorsement. Here it goes, 'he is not a perfect man but one who does crazy stuff. But what I do believe is that he loves this country and he will surround himself with capable, experienced people that will stop him from doing really crazy things.' Nah, take out the 'crazy things.'


"He wasn't my first choice, wasn't my second choice, but I need a job."

Nobody is suggesting that Trump will get zero black votes -- even George Wallace got some black votes. What people like me are saying is that Trump will get fewer black votes than Romney.

Romney only got 6% of the black vote. I don't think Trump is going to get a huge percentage, but I would put money on it that he gets more than 6%.

I keep hearing that Trump has significantly higher black voters than Romney did in many categories, such as states and party lines.


Not to discredit Trump or black voters to support him, but just look at the surface. Trump's personality and style alone make him better than Romney for black votes. I know that sounds simplistic and rude, but I think I am being honest. Even before talking about policies and what not, I think it is obvious Trump will do better than Romney did.
