The black dudes I know in their mid 40's are voting for Trump. They aren't scared to say it either.

This is true in my area as well. I'm skeptical of Blexit and most notions that there will a paradigm shift in political allegiance with minority groups, but my personal experiences tell me that black men under the age of 50 are much more pro-Trump than the polls will show. They hate the gay stuff, the trans stuff, the illegals and now the lawfare bs and his trials have shown them Democrats don't give a hoot about any issues that are important to them.

Had a conversation about Obama with good friend of mine who is black. We occasionally hunt together, so he's not your average inner city black guy, but he tells me... the way the Dems switched from all race issues under Obama to the gay trans stuff shows how fake they are in the eyes of black people. He said it's all bullshite and people are struggling now.

Why? It would make sense if everyone within the black community was basically sitting at the bottom of the socioeconomic rung of society, but they’re not. There are more and more college educated, middle class black Americans joining the economy every year. They want the same things as everyone else. They want good schools for their kids, safe neighborhoods and a good economy to provide for their families. That in and of itself is a much more sophisticated voter than in the past. It makes sense that significant percentages of the black electorate identifies with policies that benefit them.

For the working and non-welfare people, jobs under Trump were the best opportunities seen in 50 years. Now, everyone is saddled with a massive regressive tax in the form of inflation.
