I voted for that.

I heard a guy on YT say that these black politicians aren't fighting for their black constituents. They are fighting for their jobs. And that is so true. 90% of them are from shitty districts that have not improved one iota, even though they have been in office for 30+ years in some cases(Clyburn). What would these clowns be doing if they didn't have a political job?

The average black voter should actually be happy. They have a chance for their vote to not only matter but get better representation.

That won’t work because many of the Blue states don’t have a black population and this that do have any appreciable number have them all densely compacted into the cities. Of course that didn’t stop the Democrats from chopping Chicago up into tiny pieces for lockout Republicans.

I’ve been waiting for this. Hispanics have a larger population and the dems aren’t sucking their dicks. It’s very bizarre they use this one group who we, like idiots allow them to do what they do.

Now, thanks to a Supreme Court redistricting ruling that’s expected to dramatically diminish Democrat Black representation on Capitol Hill, the CBC is fighting a five-alarm fire that could devastate its membership.

Looks like it’s time for their “Leaders” to suggest that African Americans that are worried about all this nonsense to assimilate into regular society like all other cultures do, and then there will be nothing to worry about.

All this coddling and special treatment has done absolutely nothing for the Black communities, absolutely nothing good anyway.
Can’t evolve that way.

Maybe.

It may result in conservative blacks being elected. CBC excludes them from membership.

Thus, the Congressional Black Caucus is a misnomer. It is the Congressional Black Democrat Caucus.

I looked at the betting markets, and it seemed that they are still showing about a 70% chance the democrats retake the House. Am I misunderstanding it?

Even their leaders appear to be "lighter". Why is that?

No. You’re just falling for the weird narrative that a handful of seats in the South will be determinative going forward.

As if I didn't already want the Democrat's stupid gerrymandering tactics to be eliminated enough already.

Those glasses are popular among older black women. I hate the look.

They’ll be lucky to be welcomed back at this point.

We all got a front row view of how racist the blacks are. It’s actually incredible. I never thought this was the case. It’s a little shocking to me.

I can’t wait to dismantle each and everyone of their “hero’s” who in fact did nothing lol.

The one man that was doing right (Malcom x) was made to be a bad guy to the whites LOL

I’m certainly not falling for that because I’ve never heard of it. Are yo saying the betting odds, which is the conventional wisdom, is wrong. If so, what do you think is the reason. Also, why didn’t the betting odds change when the Virginia redistricting was struck down?
