Are you another black head counter? Can't talk to blacks unless you can herd a large group of them together? Assume all whites care nothing about their fellow citizens?
They aren't even paying attention my friend. That is my point here. What incentive do you think the average black voter that voters 90 percent Democrat has to turn on CNN and watch Donald Trump wax the poetic? I'm sure many people in his crowds to care about them but he is aiming a message to a group that isn't even there. It serves no purpose other than to make the nervous white people believe that he really isn't racist.
Let me offer an explanation to those on the Left that want to keep American Blacks in tow solely for their votes.
Blacks have been played for decades by the Democrats. I would think by now they as a bloc wouldn't fall for it any more.
They are promised a place at the table if they deliver the votes to keep these Washington royals in power.
But after the balloon-drop, and the confetti gets swept up, Blacks find themselves in the same predicament.
Decade after decade, since Lyndon Johnson, the joke has been on them.
They indeed have nothing to lose by voting for a political outsider. The future will tell.
They have nothing to gain either. Trump hasn't even said what he would do for them as a group. Just the same message he gives everyone else "I will make it better, believe me."

All Trump can do is address their issues. Black issues are something that will need to be fixed by all people...all voters, governement, corporations, Wall Street. Talking to a group of 50 blacks doesn't automatically fix everything. The fact that people even care what the crowd looks like just goes to show how racially divisive people's minds have become. Does Trump turn away blacks at the gate? Nope, anyone that wants to listen can come.
When Trump promised to help blacks, his supporters, didnt know how to react. They arent at Trump rallies to hear that.
TRUTH! Trump is simply using blacks as a way to push his anti-immigrant stance. His claim is immigrants are taking your jobs. He is pitting one group against another. Game recognize game.
The irony of people who know absolutely nothing of the Black community discussing what is best for the Black community is comical to me. Black people are not voting for Trump for quite a few reasons. I can speak for myself and and all of the college educated, well employed Black people that I know when I say this...the primary reason Trump will never get more than a handful of Black votes is: We know bigots when we see them. The Trump campaign and those who support it are infected with it and blinded by it. Not all...but what I've seen, heard, and read here is all the evidence I need to support that assertion.
Why would Black people vote alongside a block of people who we know good and well would not lose a wink of sleep if we all dropped off of the face of the Earth? The same people who would ask for Black support of Trump, are the same folks who would argue that a Black 12 year old playing with a toy gun deserved to die because he "looked like a thug".

See that's the thing. He isn't addressing their issues. All he is doing is saying "Things are bad so you need to vote for me." That isn't addressing any issues. I don't think you Trump supporters understand just how disliked this guy is in the African American community. It also doesn't help the fact that he has bashed Obama for years when he has 90 some percent approval rating among them. Add all his statements to the mix and you can see where this is headed. Maybe he isn't even interested in them either. Perhaps he simply wants to make the voters who are turned off on him feel like he isn't a bigot. I really don't know. What I do know is that he is going to get creamed by minority voters in November.
Trump just gave Clinton another ad. I expect the Clinton campaign and black leaders to emphatically address Trump's question.
