We can, however, definitively fact-check his claim that African Americans are generally pleased with his performance.

They are not.

Facts First: African Americans are overwhelmingly unhappy with Trump's job performance, polls have consistently shown.
Exit polls of the 2016 election found that Trump received 8% of votes cast by African Americans, with 89% of them choosing Democrat Hillary Clinton. Opinion polls in the subsequent two-and-a-half years have found that he remains highly unpopular among African Americans.

Aside from a small segment of the population, most of us hate Trump’s racist guts. It’s really insulting and irritating when Trump tries to insist otherwise. He does not need us to get re-elected, so I wish he would just leave us the f**k alone if he can’t tell the truth.

African Americans overwhelminlgy vote democrat regardless of who is the republican contender. Blacks have voted 85% or more Democratic in every presidential election since 1964. 93% of blacks voted for Obama over Romney. the overwhelming majority of blacks voted for obama over hillary.

democrats know they have a tight grip on them, and no longe rhave any motivation to woo them, especially since their birth rates are going down, their new base is the endless supply of immigrants from latin America who are used to socialism/communism being the norm and have no problem voting for them in exchange for the promise of free shit and entry into the country. hence why they keep moving further and further to the left. its easy to convince a bunch of people who have no loyalty to the nation or the constitution our founding fathers wrote to throw it in the garbage and start fresh with a big government socialist nightmare.

the interests of illegal immigrants are the dems #1 priority now.

I agree the numbers support what you're saying. it is very interesting the way you naturally refer to your racial group as a monolith. this is so foreign to white people and in fact demonized when people just perceive that white people are banding together for their own group identity's interests.

unfortunately for you, there are some black supporters and he would be an asshole to not work for them too. his support went up with black people. as much as you hate it, they have the choice to align with him.

I will never understand why white people vote democrat when white people are overwhelminlgy the tax payers of this nation and democrats just keep raising taxes, all the while constantly attacking white people as racist horrible colonizers, never the less, trump doesn't own the loyalty of white people as a group anymore than democrats own the loyalty of black people.

You can’t possibly think that taxes are everything when it comes to voting. That’s bullshit. Reagan raised taxes in 1982 with his plan, Bush Sr raised taxes with his omnibus budget plan. Clinton raised taxes. Bush jr cut taxes and destroyed our economy with the Great Recession of 2007. Obama extended some of bush’s Tax cuts and raised taxes on cigarettes and health care. Trump cut taxes mostly for businesses whose cuts are permanent, and the super wealthy. Middle class tax cuts will expire in 2025 (once he’s gone).

Don’t let facts get in your way.

Cute try Wine ....but unfortunately for you, I did not say a negative damn word about the small segment of the Black population that supports Trump. I simply said “aside from” because a lot of them don’t feel he is racist and shouldn’t be included in my comments.


Yes, minorities...a lot of us classify ourselves as a group or community and share similar interest. I personally give a shit less if White people feel it’s a
foreign concept and I personally wouldn’t demonize them if they did the same. So you’d have to ask someone who would.

Have you ever been open to actually listening to why a lot of Black people vote democrat without being negative or condescending? You always seem
upset about that.

There are some near Cincinnati, or they are just using him to make money. We saw a booth by a parking lot with Trump flags, hats and t-shirts for sale. The people running the booth was a group of 5 black men. Trump is having a rally in Cincinnati Thursday night so we’ve seen 3 different booths over the past week.
