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.
1 out of 6 in THAT video. Outside of that video, it's more like 1 out of 10. Most of the Black people I know and talk to do not support Trump. Most Black people who are doing well, they don't credit Trump for that. You act like you know Black people better than Black people know themselves.

1/6th is 16%. Thats not impossible.

No he doesnt.

Its far more complicated than that.

Trump winning 16% of the black vote, but losing 1% more of the white vote would actually result in an electoral landslide for Dems if those gains happened in the right states.

I'll call it as I see it. Some people tell themselves "Blacks like Trump" or "Blacks who don't support the GOP are stupid" to make themselves feel better. What they really want is for the GOP, and only the GOP to maintain power. Said persons don't care about Blacks much at all. Not as much as they care about making sure a Republican is in office. The obsession over who Blacks vote for is mainly fear and resentment. It is an attitude of "I want Blacks to vote GOP because it helps ME, not because it helps them".

I think that is totally on the money.

It's what comedy used to be.
Yeah, that was well done. Thanks for posting it.

Question is, will he get 1 out of 6 Black votes? Can you truly answer that, or will you just tell yourself what you hope will happen?

Not in my lifetime, not with this crop of Conservatives. At the end of the day, they enjoy being hostile to Black voters. A Republican who jeopardizes that risks losing more voters than he'd gain.

I want blacks to vote for the Republicans because their policies are better for the country than the ones the leftists are pushing. What's wrong with wanting people, regardless of color, to vote for the better party?

Honestly....how could I possibly know that? It is what I HOPE will happen, yes. And Larry Elder was just on talking about the increase in black support, so it's quite possible. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
