Progressives, part 3...

He is now garnering 36% support from the black community; triple what any other republican has ever received.  Another reason why liberal hysteria is skyrocketing.

 

He absolutely does not have 36% of the black community vote

Well, it was one poll, granted it was Rassmussen, which typically leans very R.

Also, that poll results was very outside the traditional poll numbers

Well, it seems he does; similarly he had large support among latinos as well.  Frankly, given the historic low unemployment among blacks and latinos he should have over 60% at least.  Anyone trying to lead the way off the liberal government plantation of dependency should have 100%.

Yea I saw that poll I just don’t see how it could be true. And it was the only poll that said that. It doesn’t pass the smell test for me. But I also didn’t believe polls that said trump could win either. Cutting welfare isn’t leading anyone off of a plantation. I don’t see a direct link between any policy he has put in place that is responsible for black unemployment rates. I don’t know how anyone can vote for someone who wants to cut your social security and Medicare while letting the rich cash out. I’m In STRS so I’m not sure how it will affect me but it just doesn’t make sense to me. I feel like it’s like watching helmuth play poker and tell the guy “ I’ll take this one, you take the next one” trickle down   Economics rarely benefits the  middle class in my opinion but I guess time will tell.                                                                                                           

Trump was 100% elected by racists.  

Racists blacks in Detroit, Philadelphia, Milwaukee, Columbus and Cleveland that showed up in record numbers to vote for Obama but wouldn't do the same for a white woman.  Those votes made the difference in 2016.

Lol what made them racist? But I agree less blacks showed up to vote after Obama and likely won’t show up again in those numbers unless agitated to do so

They only voted because of the color of someone's skin. That's textbook racism.

Meh that is more bias than racism. America has spent 100 years trying to subvert the black vote. And still kinda does. Black people have never voted with good reason. They don’t trust either party. That doesn’t make them racist. Why would they trust either party as u guys say the dems are so bad. Of course they would show up for someone who they can relay to. Def doesn’t make them racist 

Obama didn’t win because of the black vote

The fact that black people vote for someone black because it feels like it’s familiar and someone they can trust just solidifies my point about job hiring and the opportunity to get credit or housing ect.. it’s not racism but bias. We all have bias. Including myself. People relate and trust someone who looks like them and linguistically sounds like them. This is what helps u be successful in America. Not welfare. 

If u really cared about helping black people u would vote to help the education system. Everyone wants black people to move out the hood and get in good schools as long as it’s not their neighborhood and not their kids school and that is a fact

It probably is fact in some areas. In this example I would think it would depend on where you live. I would think the vast majority of communities aren't like this at all. Where there are communities and such like this, probably places that don't have a lot of people to begin with and very backwards. And those places are becoming fewer and fewer as the world gets smaller and smaller.

I’m sure you’re really tapped in to the views of black citizens.

and also have black friends and family members lol.

There is a reason white people who are not at all racist feel the need to bring this up.  It's to placate the race hustlers who want to use race to taint their ideological beliefs.  A true racist would not have black friends by that I mean not black associates but true friends.  A true racist would disown black family members not love them. 

Well, we can't pretend that interracial marriages or even hookups are uncommon hah!

But on a serious note, we need the Tariq Nasheed's of the world, too. If it weren't for that, there wouldn't be much of a conversation.

I don’t know about this. My football coach in high school was like a second father to me. When I wrecked my car and was too scared to call my dad my coach came and towed me out. We spent many hours together just talking. I loved him. He died while I was in college trying to clean out his pool and suck some leaves out of the pool hose and the pump kicked in and he drowned. His daughter later told me that he was and extreme racist and told her that he would disown her if she dated me. So I think there are people perfectly fine to hang out and socialize and work with black people but wouldn’t want there daughter to marry one or want one to move next door. And this goes for any race not just black in my op

By that standard, the only white Rs who aren't racist are the ones who voted for Ben Carson to win the primary. And they'd be sexist because they didn't go for Fiorina.

Jebus, had to double-check to make sure it wasn't CC making that post, with its ginormous logic-fail.

Ummmm, I think that was the point.  Because the above "standard" actually is promoted daily by the liberal media.
