You have me mistaken with some other poster. I am white, but I'm certainly not a liberal and I've spoken to probably thousands of black people in my life.
I've talked a lot of people in the last 4 years about politics, including a lot of black people where I work downtown and also in the neighborhood. I don't know where you're getting your information from, but I'm telling you that black people can't stand Trump. A lot of people can't stand him, but I've noticed that black people are hardcore about it. I really don't know where the hate comes from, but its there. Go ask the black people you know what they think of Trump. You're in for some heat.
Despite your having "black friends" and talking politics with everyone you meet Trump is still doing better with African-Americans than any republican in over 50 years.
You think black people are a monolith because you're racist.
I'm just telling you what I'm hearing and have been hearing for several years now. Black people cannot stand Donald Trump. It's visceral. They just hear the guy's name and start trashing him, everything from his looks to his crimes to his impeachments to his mannerisms. It's deep seated dislike of the man.
And I'm not sure what your poll about other Republicans has to do with anything I said. Are you really denying your own experiences because of some media poll? We're talking reality here. What are black people telling you?
Please, please, please. Let Trump keep talking. Do not stop him. This is glorious. Birtherism 2.0 in front of the league of Black journalists. Trump is simply a genius.
Trump: "I did not know she was Black until a number of years ago, when she happened to turn Black, and now she wants to be known as Black. Is she Indian or is she Black?"
Q: You have pushed false claims about people like President Barack Obama, saying he was not born in the United States, which is not true. You have told four congresswomen, women of color who were American citizens, to go back to where they came from. You have used words like ‘animal’ to describe Black district attorneys. You've attacked Black journalists, calling them a loser, saying the questions that they ask are quote, ‘stupid and racist.’ You've had dinner with a white supremacist at Mar-a-Lago. So my question, sir, now that you are asking Black supporters to vote for you, why should Black voters trust you after you have used language like that?
Trump: Well, first of all, I don't think I've ever been asked a question in such a horrible manner
And the likes of Gary think black people are warming up to him 😆 🤣 😂
I’m a lifetime member of NABJ. But they sat up here and got COOKED by Trump today by trying to act like shills for the Democrats. If they would have been more objective, their grilling would not have backfired on them- Tariq Nasheed

after being up as much as 70-30 in favor of Trump,
the predictit betting market now has, for the first time in a year, the Dems winning the WH.
Although really it's a tossup
D:51
R:50
But point is, massive momentum shift. The problem was Joe and that impediment is gone. Remember that there are more Dems than Rs. Also remember that Rs have no strategy other than 'put DJT in front of a microphone and let him entertain the red hats.' Rs are absolutely reeling right now. And it's a one-man show so they have no backup if Trump can't figure it out.
And there really is no future for the GOP because there are no more conservatives left to pivot or rebuild. The party is just full of trumpers and none of them can replicate his success holding a solid minority based on populism. It's gonna be beautiful if the whole thing crashes down on them in Nov.

Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ), a reported contender for vice president on Kamala Harris’ ticket, responds to former President Donald Trump’s comments that targeted Harris’ race at the National Association of Black Journalists conven...
Kamala responded to Donald’s insults. She said, “it was the same old show” and:
"The divisiveness and the disrespect. The American people deserve better,"
"The American people deserve a leader who tells the truth, a leader who does not respond with hostility and anger when confronted with the facts. We deserve a leader who understands that our differences do not divide us — they are an essential source of our strength."

Anecdotal evidence is useless.
Speak for yourself. My anecdotal evidence is compelling. I use it all the time to make critical decisions.
What's your anecdotal evidence on how much blacks dislike Trump? I'll bet it's contrary to that poll you posted. Polls are pretty much useless. Sloppy.
Another day gone and another day Trump failed to slow down Kamala. More unforced errors and no answers in the pipeline.... 🍿 🤠 🇺🇸
Obama won not by having white non-college educated voters (Trump voters primarily) cross over and vote for him. He won by greatly expanding the voting base. We are seeing this happen again.
Trump can't pivot. He does not know what pivot means. If his people tell him how to pivot, he won't listen.
Trump missed an opportunity. The first 10 minutes of his RNC speech looked like he was going to possibly clean house by pivoting to collect on some national sympathy for his assassination attempt, but he couldn't do it. He returned to himself. A 78 year old weird and angry guy that people feel needs to be in the nut house.
Warnock: Trump doesn't even recognize the sad irony of his remark. In a real sense Kamala Harris's story is an iteration of the American story, the diversity that is among us and often within us and that is the American story— Out of many one, E pluribus unum. She carries that literally in her veins and in that sense, he doesn’t know who we are and if you don't know us then you can't represent us, you certainly can't lead us
As a U.S. senator, Vice President Kamala Harrishad a remarkably slim record of accomplishments, shepherding only a handful of minor resolutions across the fi...
