Look, you can argue all you want with the tropes in your echo chamber, but African Americans have, since the Reagan era, gone overwhelmingly for the Democratic Party. Trump's latest isn't going to change that at all.
Now if you want to change that, why don't you advocate for the Republican Party on why they're better for black people, in terms of concrete policies, instead of the tired old insults?
of course you can't argue the points just attack it because it comes from the National Review.
Quote:
Lyndon Baines Johnson 1963... "These Negroes, they're getting pretty uppity these days and that's a problem for us since they've got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we've got to do something about this, we've got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference... I'll have them ******s voting Democratic for the next two hundred years".
if that isn't an insult for blacks I don't know what it.....but so far LBJ was right, he got blacks voting Democrat under his watch and ever since with a big welfare state.

Let's see, the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Voting Rights Act of 1965, are a couple of pretty good reasons why black folks voted for Democrats ever since. Medicare.
And what do today's Republicans do? They dismantle civil rights laws, or water down enforcement, since the Reagan Administration. They go for voter suppression laws to make it harder for people to vote. They won't expand health care.
These are just three areas.
Not to mention dog whistle political memes such as "welfare queens".
In any case, history (no matter what you say or believe) and going forward, the vast majority of African Americans are not going to vote for Trump.

Stop with the nonsense, please.
so basically you are admitting that blacks vote for the Democrat Party for a big welfare federal government....o.k....how is that working out?
you mean the Civil Rights Act of 1957 that Eisenhower tried to pass and LBJ and the Democrats stopped and killed it????? ok...funny how LBJ had a change of heart in just 7 years....lol
funny, The Civil Rights Act of 1964 passed with 79% of Republicans and 63% of Democrats voted yes. The Senate vote was 73 to 27, with 21 Democrats and only 6 Republicans voting no.
but don't let the facts mess up with your argument.....continue.....lol
The bill passed the House with a vote of 285 to 126 (Republicans 167–19 for, Democrats 118–107 for) and the Senate 72 to 18 (Republicans 43–0 for, Democrats 29–18 for). President Eisenhower signed it on September 9, 1957.
Republicans started the Civil Rights Act way before Democrats.........the reason Blacks turned Democrat in the 60's in large % was because of LBJ's massive welfare handouts in his GREAT SOCIETY programs. That's what you call buying votes in any country,,,,,,Hugo Chavez did the same thing in Venezuela and locked in the poor vote in high %.......these programs doesn't get most out of poverty but it sure gets the vote out.
She'd get 99.99 of the AA vote in a hypothetical matchup with Clown Trump. You can rest assured of that now..
Ahh so you make claim that African Americans ALL think and act exactly alike. If so, and they are 13% of the population located mostly in red states, then their vote is irrelevant. Can't imagine why a demographic would proudly marginalize themselves like this, but it is what it is. People have a habit of voting against their interests.
BTW, King Hilarious doesn't care about African Americans beyond their lemming votes. That much was demonstrated in 2008.
Trump claims he can get the Black vote. So far, I'm not convinced. How does he expect to get the Black vote with a mouth like his?
