You are so deep into the cult that you cannot or will not see it. But ordinary Americans do. Trump is starting to sink in the polls because people have grown weary of his knuckle-dragging lout act. It was amusing for a while, but it has more than run its course.

But I have no doubt that you will never acknowledge that. Brainwashed people rarely are able to see the level of their own indoctrination. Those in the Trump cult obviously cannot.
Yeah, you're wasting your time.

You're talking about people who (not all) are so miserable in their unfulfilled lives, that's they're so desperate for anyone, ANYONE to save them and "their country". They have to blame any problem they have or anyone else has on someone else, and they're so mentally weak, that they envision Trump as some sort of savior who's going to make America into this perfect utopia with less brown people and more jobs, in under 8 years. They believe he's going to fix all their woes, instead of being like adults and making their own lives happy and successful, regardless of who is POTUS.

They're easy to spot, based on their crass, classless attitudes towards other Americans, xenophobia, bigotry, hypochondriac-tin foil hat attitude and their hilariously disturbing belief that all of this country's problems started 8 years ago and things were always so peachy before Obama.

I'd feel bad for them, if they weren't so nasty towards others.

There, see what I did? I fixed your paragraph for ya!!!

Does obama have a separate energy policy for whites, then another for blacks, one fort latinos, and another for women?

Does obama have a separate trade policy for blacks, one for whites, another for latinos, etc?

Does obama have a different environmental policy for each group? How about a different set of health policies, water safety policies, transportation policies?



No, i won't read this crap because it a bunch of lies., half-truths, fabrications and distortions.




Uh, he's president of the united states, not mayor of chicago.



Which clearly excludes you because a rational person would not be trafficking in the filth you president as "proof."

polling of blacks shows obama to have a seven year average of about 85-90% approval by blacks. As people tend to support those who they feel helps them, how do you explain this? Oh! I know, blacks are too stupid to think for themselves -- got it!

So yes, why doesn't he promise better days for EVERYONE, not address just blacks or whatever group? Back on you.....you tell me? He should be addressing Americans, not this/that/the other group making promises. See, we agree!




You won't open your mind to read it yet you define statistics from the gov led by the great one as "crap", like the big increase in welfare/assistance of blacks under obama's reign?

Is this comedy hour alfie?






Last I knew, chicago(in theory anyways) is part of the US, correct? And the gov at the fed level can't push federal resources to help in the matter in chicago?




I know what the polling shows. The latest gallup polling has him 90%+ approval among blacks and that's where my confusion sits. Can you tell me which part about him that they like based on his poor performance?

Unemployment: Black voters Suffer Under Obama
"
  • U.S. labor force participation has dropped during that same period, from 65.7 to 62.7 percent. For blacks in general, the damage was a bit lighter, dipping from 63.2 to 61.0 percent of available employees in the work pool. For black teenagers, however, this number cratered — from 29.6 to 25.7 percent
  • The percentage of Americans below the poverty line inched up, the latest available Census Bureau data found, from 14.3 to 14.5 percent overall — between 2009 and 2013. For black Americans, that climb was steeper: The 25.8 percent in poverty rose to 27.2 percent.
  • Real median household incomes across America retreated across those years, from $54,059 to $51,939. Though less pronounced, such finances also reversed for black Americans, from $35,387 to $34,598.
  • Food Stamp recipients between 2009 and 2013, the most recent Department of Agriculture figures show, rose from 32.9 million to 47.1 million Americans. Meanwhile, the equivalent number of blacks soared from 7.4 million to 12.2 million.
  • Home ownership slipped from 67.3 percent of Americans in the first quarter of 2009 to 64.0 in the fourth quarter of 2014. For blacks, that figure slid from 46.1 to 42.1 percent."

Perhaps he's liked because he's the most polarizing president in modern history?

Obama most polarizing president in modern history - CNNPolitics.com

That sounds frankly horrible to me and shows a poor leader who can't bring EVERYONE together and goes against your point of this guy making everyone equal. Ain't working out that way! So how can someone who is so polarizing be someone you support since this is an important thing for you?

Help me out there alfieboy where the appeal is and I'd like specific examples as I gave to you. It helps to make a point other than "I like him!" instead of stating an ideal that you want that doesn't exist in reality....actually quite the opposite environment exists with the unfortunate great division/polarization he's responsible for(he's the main leader, right?) since he's taken over yet you rave about him. And the fact that hillary to me is 4 more years of obama and talk about a lady who in my view/the view of many has been pandering to blacks in a most embarrassing/condescending/degrading way. Hot sauce? A skit many felt was racist with the mayor of NYC? The 2008 election:

Hillary Clinton needs to address the racist undertones of her 2008 campaign

Come on. I agree with you! So why in the world do blacks support clinton in such large numbers with her condescending pandering talk and after seeing the obama record?

Your a prime Example why they won't Vote for a republican

We don't carry a "chip" among friends.(So glad I grew up in a place that was integrated well before I was born.) A racist would NEVER EVER say what Trump did. Racists will never get it.
In other words, Trump believes that the entire population of Blacks in this country are his 'friends'.

Makes sense for an egomaniac like him!

My daughter just married a Black man a couple of weeks ago. I've known him for 15 years, when they both were still in high school.

I know him very well and never thought about 'joking around' with him over his race. In fact, I don't see him as a Black man, but as a man.

The fact that you 'joke around' with others of different races ultimately means that you view those people as different, and have the need to bring that to the forefront via 'jokes'. The same would apply to those Blacks who 'joke around' with you over your race.

I present facts and you present no facts to back up your view/respond to my specific points except this is "why they won't Vote for a republican"?

And by reading more than a few posts on these forums, including your post above, I think shows a "prime example" why I'm in favor of requiring IQ tests for voters. I don't care if someone disagrees with me/wants to vote for a rock but when people can't express a valid argument/another view with solid examples other than 1 line non-sequitur statements to someone else's points, I don't think such people should be voting.

btw, I trust neither party, especially the establishment clowns and that includes clinton.
