The black voters are starting to wake up. When the votes are counted later this year compare the number of Black votes for Republicans Vs Democrats, percentage or otherwise, from 2016.
If you believe 90 pct of black voters are voting against their interest because they are being told to do so and therefore lack the intellectual capacity to choose their preferred candidate like you do, you have a lot of racism within you to work on. Why do you expect black people would vote with you if you espouse these beleiefs ?I wish you luck

Did I say all 90%? Read my post again. Reading for comprehension is the first step in creating a knowledgeable electorate. It is people who twist other people's statements that are the ones who are trying to brainwash the masses. Welcome to your club.

I think that the ones who work so hard to keep blacks "on the plantation" are the ones who should have shame.

So Maine guy it is your assertion that black people are not voting republican ... Because they are being told not to? And absent of these explicit directions, they would?

Or is it your assertion that they lack the ability to make a choice that corresponds best to their desires ?

Which is it

They don't lack the ability as much as they just don't choose to make use of it. This could be a result of peer pressure more than anything else. See many black people in Baltimore wearing a MAGA hat lately? I mean the one's not laying on the sidewalk with a bullet hole in them.

I don't think the sales pitch is working. And with comments like the ones in this post, who can guess why ?

Here's the thing. What random people say on a website or in a political ad or even in person shouldn't be the basis for how someone votes.

I don't see how anyone of any color who has lived in Baltimore for any amount of time can say that the Democrats have done one single thing to improve the lives of blacks, whites, or anyone else. But black Baltimore continues to pick the same poison year after year after year. So, people with brains who care about quality of life issues are leaving. I hope the people who did this to Baltimore reap their just desserts including more crime, higher taxes, and endless corruption. It's what they want based on their voting history.

"8 in 10 blacks think Trump is a Racist", but I am willing to bet that more than 50% of them (4 in 10 overall) can't describe a racist act that trump has demonstrated. That link did not describe one.
