If they're business owners, they do. Business owners do better by going to Republicans, without all that needless regulations. (And news flash: most business owners are from from rich. The majority are 1- or 2-person operations, making an OK living.)
Unless you're saying that black people don't own businesses?

It's more about class than race, wake up. The majority of Americans are not rich, therefore the majority of Americans would not be Republicans if they kept up on issues and knew what was good for them! (Note: Democrats at the federal level haven't been that much better, but still better)
Why? If you aren't rich, or a member of the Southern Baptist Church, the Republicans don't give a $#!+ about you
Yep. There’s no way in hell that black Georgians are gonna go vote Republican. Hell no. Vote for your own destruction by voting in two Republican Senators who would rather see you at the bottom of a river?
when my parents immigrated to this country “legally” I may add. They were dirt poor! They had nothing! They had very little education and didn’t speak a word of English. However they didn’t go on welfare..they didn’t join gangs...they didn’t do drugs..they didn’t go robbing and shooting people. They busted their butts working two or three jobs to raise a family. And If they could make it this country and “dealing with bigotry as well” so can African Americans. There’s something fundamentally wrong with the black community and it’s not poverty!
Which country did you come from? It will make a world of difference to understand your mentality and background.

That's the myth the liberal media feeds you. Expand your reading.
Under Trump, and before the virus WHICH WAS NOT HIS FAULT, we had 50-year record low unemployment for all, with record low for minorities. On top of that, low-income wages were rising in the first time in....forever. That was due to Trump's pro-business policies, which trickled down to both middle-income stockholders (like me, mostly in my IRA) and low-income employees.

Lolz
Record low unemployment doesn't mean all those people who got jobs actually got good jobs with good wages. And further, say every worker hypothetically got a 15% raise across the board. A worker who just went from $9/hr to $10.35/hr; yeah, they got a 15% raise, but are they really any better off?......
I grew up a poor white child in rural America..... We thought we had gangs but my Mom would laugh at us saying we were the Pamida pounders vs the Kmart killers......LOL
It all comes down to one thing: no fathers in the house
The out of wedlock birthrate for us blacks is like 80%+. You could lock up thousands of blacks and it wouldn’t change the crime rate because everyday someone is born without a father.
When Democrats started paying poor people to have kids without a father, with the New Deal and Great Society programs of the 1960s, that’s exactly what they did.
Name one other race in the US that has been so targeted then the AA community? The justice system has systematically gone after young black men, at a MUCH MUCH higher rate then other demographics!!!
Young black men faces harder and longer jail time for offenses that they commit at the same numbers as white or hispanics!!
Jailing two generations of young black men and all the ramifications that creates on their lives going forward has had a deep and traumatic consequences in their societies!!
Strangely funny watching White persons now, after Five decades of targeted action against the black citizens and claim they are just like that. No.. the system that went after young black men 50 years ago until now, has created the current mess!!

All of what you described can be explained by legally relevant factors. Not racism.

So...how many black people do you know? Are real friends with? Don't say "I am not a racist! My (insert) (friend, sister-in-law, dog-walker, the guy who makes my coffee) is black!"
Unless you have been in their shoes, you have no say in this.
And by the way, there are more white people on welfare than black people.
It just happens more black people are not given a pass because of the color of their skin. White criminals and losers are.
So you claiming that blacks do all those and use your family as an example, failing to take into account of all whites, and not doing research, makes you the racist.
Most likely you won't read the links, saying "fake news!"
