Simple question ^^

The black caucus refusing to meet with him is legit like the scene from House of Cards when they are completely unreceptive and hostile to Conway, the Republican candidate.

Here's the scene in reference. "You prop up the status quo"

edit: serious question guys...

It will go down in history as The Bling Act of 2018.

If he "tried to court the black vote" he would no longer court my vote!

Not a damned thing! 'courting' = pandering. It is way past time to end pandering and identity politics. Like Ben Carson said during his confirmation hearings, they're people. They have the same rights as all other people. And nothing extra.

It's really this simple. If he pushed for legalization of marijuana along with some sort of inner city jobs program, he might be able to start chipping away at the black vote. He actually got 8% the first time around, which is quite a lot for a republican.

Ignore the black caucus and get some more community leaders in and start actually implementing some ideas.

I agree. Something along these lines.

Money talks, as they like to say. Give people a stable source of income (jobs), and they will like you.

The difficult part is fixing our broken welfare system where able-bodied folk get free money for doing jack shite. Even more difficult than that is eradicating the attitude that this broken welfare system has created. Nothing more sad than people who think "the man" is keeping them down, and the only life there is to live is collecting free money each month to indulge in creature comforts.
