Donald Trump beats Hillary Clinton in poll --- and gets 25 percent among blacks | Washington Examiner!

Against Trump Clinton carries non-whites — but by less than impressive margins. Trump's name is supposed to be mud among Hispanics, but he gets 31 percent of their votes — more than Mitt Romney in 2012, the same as John McCain in 2008 — and Clinton gets only a bare 50 percent. Among Asians, Trump actually has a (statistically insignificant) lead of 41 to 39 percent, echoing the 50 to 49 percent Asian margin for Republicans in the 2014 vote for House of Representatives. And among blacks Clinton leads Trump by 59 to 25 percent. That's a huge contrast with Barack Obama's margins of 95 to 4 percent in 2008 and 93 to 6 percent in 2012.

Thats a NATIONAL poll..

That is a year old poll - September 2015 - and...

"3) The SurveyUSA results for blacks and Hispanics are out of line with those in recent national polls by Public Polling Polling, Quinnipiac, and CNN/ORC. PPP has Clinton getting 83 percent from blacks, 65 percent from Hispanics and 53 percent from Asians — the first two numbers being fairly close to Obama's 2012 performance, the Asian numbers being significantly lower (see my next caveat). Quinnipiac has Clinton getting 91 percent from blacks and 67 percent from Hispanics — below Obama's 2012 percentages by statistically insignificant amounts. CNN/ORC has Clinton getting 72 percent from "non-whites" — ditto."

But Democratic policies are to promote welfare as an economic stimulus, and people wonder why blacks are associated with welfare, despite more whites etc being on it..

shocking

This is nuts. The poll also reports that 12% of Progressive Democrats are voting for Trump.

Because trump and his political goons are not doing anything to appeal to us. His policies will hurt us. Why would I or any minority support him? To do so is to commit economic suicide. And that other little detail about trump being woefully unqualified to be president has something to do with it as well.

Can you tell me how Trump's policies would hurt the black community specifically?
