After all, blacks are doing very well under him, with low unemployment and increased wages.


You don't actually think that black people would admit to the likes of YOU that they are voting for Trump, do you? Just look at how liberals pounce on black conservatives! It's horrible. Anyone who doesn't stick with liberalism is demonized.
Lol...so blacks are scared to admit that they’re voting for Trump?

Based on what evidence?

Uh huh. More regurgitated talking points that you can't actually support.

Well, people are going to look out for themselves first. People are going to assess what is the most important to them. Just because it's because for the country as a whole doesn't mean it's good for me. Blacks constantly come in last anywhere, so I look at it like this: Who cares who Blacks vote for?

You're kidding me, right? They rake any black conservative over the coals. (Well, they rake ANY conservative over the coals, but I think they're harder on blacks.)

But why are you assuming that what's better for the country isn't better for blacks, also? Aren't they part of the country?

Lol... When have Republicans every looked out for the country? Everyone of the policies you support is about giving those with power and access, more power and access. The only thing that motivates you more than carrying water for the powerful is spiting Liberals.

Everything you guys believe in, is some form of Darwinism for the sake of Darwinism, not for the sake of the country.

Just because you're part of the country, and a citizen, doesn't mean you're always treated as such. I don't trust the GOP to address things like police brutality, job discrimination, voter suppression (I saw that crap going on in Georgia). This is the thing. Fixing the tax codes for businessmen won't do any good if an employer prefers not to hire Blacks. Ever wonder why so many Blacks work in government positions? Less discrimination there than in the private sector.

I thought this was pretty funny, and it had an authentic tone.

Host talks to six black people to see where they are for the election.

5 of 6 voted for Obama. Now they are supporting various people - and 1 guy is totally on board for Trump.

Hopefully you can get a laugh out of it. It's a holiday week - relax a bit.


Darn funny. Thanks for posting it.

Roy Wood Jr should be more famous.

How would you know that? You’ve been there when black liberals and black conservatives have shared political discussions?

And no...I’m not kidding you. I think you’re the one doing the kidding.

First of all, we don’t believe the Republican Party works for the betterment of the country. I think they work hard for the deterioration of it.

Of course, what’s better for the country is better for every race of people. But Republicans aren’t the advocates of that betterment.
