Wish we could say the same about poor, uneducated "whites" with multiple kids to multiple baby mamas/ daddies, addictions out the wazoo (leading the way in the opioid epidemic), and collecting various forms of social assistance. I deal with them all the time.
Overwhelmingly, they voted for Trump, because they disapprove of the direction our country is going in. They yearn for the days when people had good family values, and Trump, of course, personifies those values.
Heh, they voted for Trump because they are grasping for what little social status being white still gets them in this country.
Those who claim that the Republicans are better than Democrats, I disagree. I have links and statements below to show you why. And this is just from the last 2-3 years.
Miami Republican Sen. Frank Artiles dropped the n-word to a pair of African-American colleagues in private conversation Monday night — after calling one of them a “****ing *******,” a “*****” and a “girl,” the two senators said.
Over drinks after 10 p.m. at the members-only Governors Club just steps from the state Capitol, Artiles told Sens. Audrey Gibson of Jacksonville and Perry Thurston of Fort Lauderdale that Senate President Joe Negron of Stuart had risen to his powerful GOP leadership role because “six ******s” in the Republican caucus had elected him.
Artiles later told Gibson and Thurston that he’d used the word “*****s,” suggesting the slang term was not meant to be insulting, Gibson and Thurston said. It’s unclear whom Artiles was referring to, since the only black senators in the state Senate are all Democrats — and none of them backed Negron’s bid to lead the chamber.
A longtime Douglas County commissioner, under fire over a video recording of him making disparaging comments about black candidates and leaders, is being pressured to resign and end his bid for re-election.
Commission Chairman Tom Worthan was secretly taped at a public county festival two weeks ago.
Facing competition from a black woman, Worthan said governments run by blacks “bankrupt you,” and that if African-American sheriff candidate Tim Pounds were elected, “he would put a bunch of blacks in leadership positions.”
He later adds: “I’d be afraid he’d put his black brothers in positions that maybe they’re not qualified to be in.”
After the tape surfaced, Worthan, who has been elected five times as county commissioner and the past three as chairman, went on Fox 5 Atlanta and apologized.
"Basically any way you say it, marijuana is an entry drug into the higher drugs. What you really need to do is go back in the '30s, when they outlawed all types of drugs in Kansas and across the United States. What was the reason why they did that? One of the reasons why, I hate to say it, was that the African-Americans, they were basically users and they basically responded the worst to those drugs just because of their character makeup, their genetics and that. And so basically what we’re trying to do is we’re trying to do a complete reverse, with people not remembering what has happened in the past."
Whenever I hear "Democratic plantation", I understand what this is about. They are not really coming from a perspective of "we want what's best for Black people".
How do you know it's not coming from that perspective??? Just a convenient assumption. You put just enough energy into the analysis to get to your preconception. Just horrible thinking. Don't be so certain of yourself. That is the trap!

Wow, that's harsh.
