Oye. Another liberal who is quick to believe a leftist site, but not a rightist site. Why not stick with something balanced? (I read neither, by the way.)

OK. Got a good one: This is an article printed in The Huffington Post (a Libbie site) in which LBJ's anti-black remarks are quoted, including the one I mentioned. (Another is how he complained about the blacks getting "uppity these days.") LBJ was a racist Democrat who believed in anti-poverty programs because it kept blacks in their place and dependent on Dems for more, more, more:

7%. Seven. 7 out of every 100 black people in America voted for Donald Trump in 2016.

Less than 10%. That is really, really bad.

Don't expect that number to go up, either. Not after Trump called the black parts of Baltimore a "rat-infested mess" and said that "countries with black leaders are s-hole countries."

Trump doesn't give a crap about minorities, unless it could benefit him in some way.

Like I said, you know the black community so intimately that I must start deferring to you on all topics concerning African Americans.

OF COURSE, LBJ made that remark about keeping blacks voting Democrat for 200 years. It's been widely reported. But because it reveals how Democrats are only into hand-outs for blacks for the votes, naturally you try to squelch it.
Where are your "facts" that Snopes is a biased site? And how has this quote been widely reported? If you read the article, it will explain why LBJ never actually said this quote.

I do. Do YOU? Surely not, or you wouldn't be so brainwashed into thinking Democrats give blacks hand-outs due to the nature of their good hearts. IT'S ABOUT THE VOTES.

That’s the new conservative trope since Snopes catches them lying so damn much.

It's funny that Hasidic Jews (you know the only actual Jews who vote heavily Republican) are some of the biggest welfare moochers in this country. I wonder when Rachel is going to post about them.

Am I supposed to feel guilty about handouts? Do you feel guilty about the handouts YOU get?

My country just gave Ukraine hundreds of millions in handouts. So I’ll gladly take mine just like you happily take yours. Okay?

Even if LBJ did say it, OH WELL!! We’re still gonna refuse to vote Republican regardless.
Yes, we know you'll do as the DNC tells you.
