The thought of killing potential babies started in the mind of one woman and look where we are today. How'd that work out for your race?

If trump wants to really make the Democrats sweat over the black vote. He should tweet his disgust of the Breonna Taylor situation and call for a federal investigation.


I’d pay to see that & the reaction on this board.

A guy I went to HS with who works in the oilfield as an operator posted he was thinking about voting for Trump. Of course, he was met with laughing emoji’s and other fricked up comments. I explained to him and others that a vote for Biden from an oilfield worker was a vote against their own best interest and explained Biden’s Green New Deal. After a conversation, OP plus 2 other oilfield workers all were firmly aboard the Trump Train!


Unfortunately, I've found that Black Americans are most uninformed of our electorate. As a whole, the only reason they vote the way they do, is because that is what their pastor, community organizer, or Grandma told them to do. They do not search out or pay any attention to the candidates or their platforms. An informed Black American will not usually agree with the Democrat platform, on a myriad of issues.

Ummm, yes.

I challenge you this. Ask people you know to name 1 Biden and 1 Trump policy. I will bet that if you ask 10 people, 7 wouldn’t be able to tell you a Biden policy.

The majority of Americans don’t Follow politics even relatively closely. They vote for a name they recognize or a party


This is spot on! To expand further, there is a very popular misconception that Trump is a racist. Most black people will regurgitate this. But when asked to provide an example, they have a very hard time coming up with an answer. The most common answer you will find is Trump's comments concerning Charlottesville that were taken out of context. But remember, Trump was called a racist long before Charlottesville.

Every time Trump criticizes the left he should use the words "white liberals."

Every time.

It would work.

Eh, considering 2 of the 3 personally inboxed me to find out more, I don’t think they were just being humorous. Btw, I’m black, and the OP and I played high school ball together. They are just what you call, some baws who learned today that a Biden presidency means they would have to find a new career.

I wonder where they were getting their information from before you talked to them? Seriously.

This is quite often true. Many black folks don't agree with many parts of the Democratic platform. But nevertheless, the overwhelming majority of black people rich or poor, liberal moderate or conservative, rural or urban, male or female vote Democrat or not at all.

This is why. This is you telling black people to vote Democrat. I say this all time. There are tons of black conservatives or conservative leaning voters, There are vanishingly few black Republicans and it is entirely about them not feeling welcome in that party.
