This is the message that the DNC doesn’t hear or quite honesty they don’t care because they are replacing you and I with new voters (illegals, getting college kids out to vote). Their focus has been on Trump and not on policy to gather votes from middle of the road folks that aren’t in line with the Dem vocal far left. And then the extreme opinion calling some of them deplorables or racists.
What policy has Trump advocated that attracts 'middle of the road' folks? Cutting Social Security, ending the ACA with no replacement, more tax cuts for the wealthy?
Don’t kid yourself. I watch CSpan often in the morning and have heard this numerous times. Democrats claiming they no longer relate to the party policies and will vote Trump because the like what he’s done. This includes black callers.
Make no mistake - I'm not seeing a black wave. BUT. This time around I'm seeing there are many more black Americans who are voting for Trump ..
I went to school in a fairly diverse environment and have friends across all political spectrums, creeds and colors. I am seeing more and more pro Trump black friends (truthfully - more friends of friends who comment on their posts) this time around. I'm not sure if they were Trump voters in 2016, are recent Trump voters or are just owning up to how they voted now.
As a side note, there's a core group of middle aged white women who lose their ever lovin' minds when someone posts a Leo Terrell or Larry Elder quote, speech or interview - or God forbid, Candace Owens. They will come out swinging that NO BLACKS IN AMERICA SUPPORT THESE TRAITORS. (That's a fairly direct quote right there from a Floridian blond haired, blue eyed, pro BLM, lunatic.)
I didn't watch it, none of my Democratic friends or family members watched it, and the claim that a lifelong Democrat would vote for Trump after that is quite frankly laughable.
There is no possible way that you could possibly hate Trump as much as I hate Biden and obama, but even I watched the DMC circus last week.
One has to be open minded if you want to learn and make an intelligent selection when you enter the voting booth. Being stubborn gets you nowhere, or perhaps in this case, by remained close minded and voting for Biden/Harris, it will get you standing in bread lines in a communist America, that is what the left is striving for...
Open your eyes and your mind, the truth shall set you free...!!
One guy who loves big daddy government who then switched sides to someone who still is a fan of big daddy government (Trump).
End of the day, we know Trump was a former Democrat who is selling Democratic policies to the GOP base. Nothing new to see here.
I know, isn’t it great that some populism is making its way into the Republican Party and the tent is expanding lol. I like so see some pro worker policies and socially liberal policies make their way into the Republican Party. I hope the party gets more diverse and starts to have a wider array of ideas and stances on how to best run our society.
A lot of the policies being sold are policies that the Democrats have abandoned. Now, if the GOP can start to give some way as to the tax cuts for the wealthy. Renegotiating trade deals is a good thing though.

A couple right off the top of my head...
He supports job growth in America. I have many middle America friends that are thriving in this economy due to leveling the playing field globally.
I actually work in Govt. and We would probably have better support financially long term with a democratic president. However, personally I’ve fared well during tax time as have my friends and family pretty much everyone I’ve talked about the subject with. Most of which are democratic suppprters.
I like that he doesn’t turn a blind eye to law enforcement like someone else did. I have family members in that line of work.
Even if the GOP is pretty racist and embracing socialism? I don't think you are smart on your choices, sir.
There is nothing racist about Trump or the GOP, that is another democrat lie who believe if you repeat it often enough some ignorant people might stat to believe the lie. Open you eyes and you mind, it's costing you.
I met more Black Trump supporters who only vote for the man, not for the party. They aren't voting for free markets, they are voting for strong government intervention of the free market. The fact is most voters now are socialist, including the GOP ones.
That’s fine, some government intervention in the free market isn’t a bad thing. This can lead to some better outcomes for all of society. We have had a mixed economy for some time. Finding the right mix and ratio for the betterment of society is a good thing. I’m not afraid of the s-word being inappropriately used lol.
