It’s a fact that a huge percentage of black people will vote based on skin color. Fortunately the Dems are running a bunch of wypipo, so Trump probably get a record percentage of their votes.

If I were to speculate my prediction will be that President Trump will get pretty much the exact same percentage of the African-American vote as he got in 2016 perhaps a smidge higher maybe.

God willing, if he wins the election I expect him at that point to scale back the outreach in his second term to the African-American community if he doesn’t make any headway this time and focus on more national generic things such as the wall and tax cuts, education system, trade.

He would correctly assume that there’s nothing that he’s going to do will improve his standing and instead of all his resources to other areas

The African-American community has a real once in a millennium shot this election of an executive who is making a tangible effort to improve their lives. I hope the opportunity is not missed

Voting for someone the same skin color as yourself is a universal principle throughout elections around the world. You should listen to the lectures given by the leader of Singapore as to why he doesn’t allow democratic elections. And how democratic elections are pretty much would be the end of Singapore. The large Hindu majority would never in 1 million years vote for a Chinese guy to run the country and that’ll be that for Singapore

Ive said it here before but I have a black friend who says Trump is racist. When I asked him how, he said he is racist towards Mexicans because of the wall.

This is all I needed to hear to know Trump is not a racist

I chalked it up to the years of brainwashing that unfortunately seems to happen in the black community. He backpedaled a bit when I challenged him but didn't come off it completely.
worked with a sweet black lady for 10+ years.

when presidential campaign was underway with Hitlery & Trump she slowly started insinuating that Trump was bad for the black community.
she watched/listened to many social media clips and formed her opinion from these sites. all left leaning socialist propaganda.
major media included.
claimed our taxes would be going up and blah blah...
Trumps a racist, blah blah...

all this before election results.

people choose where to get their news & opinions.
everyone hears and comprehends on different wavelengths.
the education system has done a great disservice to our country and the effects of it are staggering.

hence; MAGA. Bless God America.

Yes, it's a generalization, but my grandfather once told me that a lot of white southerners don't like the black race but they love black individuals. In the north white people claim they love the black race but they don't like black individuals.


Interesting and I've never heard that but makes sense.

I've learned that racism is a diminishing occurrence. As much as you want to make it a binary issue, either on or off, that isn't the way the world works. If you look back at each decade since slavery was ended, racism has become less and less of a definable problem. So much so that race instigators are fabricating how something is racist because it's something a minority will be harmed over, yet it isn't really geared towards any race. The rules apply universally. Wearing trashy clothes to school is a good example.

I have no idea what your comment means. Obama is the perfect example of what I said. With him getting greater than 95% of the African-American vote yet demonstrably making their lives much worse by the end of his first term

Guess you forgot that LBJ, yes that Pres. Johnson would say the N word to his advisors that as long as u gave the N s welfare you had their vote forever. And he was so right with a few exceptions, like Dr. Ben Carson, Denzel Washington, talk show host Larry Elder to name a few. Pres Trump is making the AA vote rethink their positions. Not only the black vote but Hispanics, Asian, and middle of the road Democrats.

For sure, Donald Trump may very well be recorded in history as the greatest Pres since George Washington. And King David, King Solomon. For sure the greatest pro Isreal PRES ever.

There is nothing in Trump's past that indicate he's a racist, but the lie is out there and being repeated by the parrots on the Left and in the media.

Not exactly. The AA who might vote for Obama, will stay at home and not vote...effectively giving the vote to POTUS Trump but in an indirect way.

It has been said that former AG Eric Holder carries a card in his wallet. The card reads, "Blackness Above All Else."

To some people race transcends everything.

I asked for some details as to why he thought Trump was racist and he couldn't really articulate anything of substance on that front.



because he (not trump) is the racist and he automatically judges trump (and you) by the color of your skin

hint, he thinks you are a racist too
