Keep on pretending like
Trump's 50-year history of racism against the Black community isn't public knowledge, Trumpset.
shyt, even a majority of the black vote going to Hillary would be understandable, but 99%
? Those are some North Korean election numbers
. No demographic should be that beholden to one party, especially one as diverse and numerous as African-Americans. Gays, Hispanics, the poor, the rich, the educated, the uneducated, women, the young, the old, etc. None of them are voting for one party in those numbers. Something stinks here
.
You didn't even read the article. Clinton is only getting 91% of the Black vote. It's just that Trump is only getting 1% because he is ACTIVELY GOING AFTER WHITE SUPREMACISTS AS HIS BASE. The other 8% of the Black community is looking at other candidates or saying, "none of the above".
Seriously, can you provide a logical reason why black people's are against Trump more than any other demographic in the United States, including the Hispanics and women he supposedly insulted directly? Does that make sense to you?
Because more than any other demographic in this nation, Black people have intimate knowledge of what the full-blown racist White Supremacists of the South are capable of when they get political power? A lot of Hispanics ignore the racist narrative as a less important issue than the other stuff, a lot of women just do whatever the men in their life say is the right thing to do (and know that even if Trump doesn't like women, he'll still prop up the White men they're married to). But 99% of the Black community knows that the kind of White Supremacists that Trump has been going after at the core of his base will throw away EVERYTHING else in order to hold onto White Supremacy. That's how you get Mississippi.
The one candidate in my lifetime from either party to propose systemic shifts to the US economic system that
are designed to alleviate the chronic underemployment of the black community, and he gets 1%
You couldn't make this stuff up
You can't be that stupid.
No, seriously, no one is that stupid.
There are brothers in here who can see Trump has receipts of hating on the Black community his entire life, of having billions of dollars yet not doing shyt for the Black community his entire life, of purposely trying to attract the White Supremacist vote harder than any president in our lifetimes while throwing the Black vote in the trash....and you believe that this man is going to make an economic policy DESIGNED to alleviate chronic unemployment in the Black community???
No one is really that stupid.
Oh by the way, you know the 12 million people illegally residing in the country that are competing with you for your jobs and lowering your wages? Yeah, we're gonna legalize them."
I ain't voting for Clinton and don't think her shyt will help the Black community, but she's not actively propping up the White Supremacists either. And if those 12 million people are already competing with the Black community and lowering wages, then won't legalizing them remove a competitive advantage and lead to the raising of wages? Half the reason they depress wages is because employers know they can screw them over as much as they want and they won't raise a peep or risk getting deported....illegal immigrants depress wages more than legalized ones do.
I love watching Trump supporters use shyt like this to shame people for not choosing to vote their way. I mean, you're voting for Trump and the goddamn regressive republican party.
In their warped logic built up on far-right and white supremacist internet sites, they think that Malcolm would be up there campaigning alongside the White Southerners for their boy.
y'all keep trotting out this line like it's supposed to be some silver bullet. Warren Buffett is constantly railing against US tax code allowing him to pay less than his secretary, but do you consider what he's saying invalid because he's still abiding by the fukked up system? There is no successful businessperson in the United States that would forego legally obtainable profits because it's "good for the public".
I love it when Republicans in one conversation claim that businessmen have absolutely no moral bounds and will do ANYTHING to screw over the public in order to make their own profits.
Then, in another thread, they'll tell us why deregulation is a good thing and corporations can police themselves.
There is no doubt Trump is a huge narcissist, but I think if Trump ever gets in the white house his narcissism would make him want to actually go down as a great president. Continuing the corporate rape of the country wouldn't do anything to further that goal. It's not like he launched his campaign as a get rich quick scheme, he was already wealthy beforehand and was one of the most famous businessmen in the world. If more money was his goal he'd have continued to do the Apprentice, not run the most divisive campaign in modern political history. If he loses, his businesses are totally shot. His brand is now toxic as hell. He seems to have lost most of his friendships and connections over this campaign.
First off, you're assuming that he would even be capable of making a great president. EVERY indication I've seen shows that he doesn't know anything about any of the issues, makes decisions on a whim, has a terrible attention span that keeps him from thinking about any particular problem in depth, trusts in bad people to run his crap as long as they kiss his ass, has a hell of a temper and is vengeful on anyone who he feels disrespects him, and cares about his own bank account more than anything else.
Oh, hell yeah, that'll make a great president.
But he's amazing at PR and marketing though!
His brand was already toxic as hell. There wasn't a single bank the USA that would finance him after he pulled off 6 bankruptcies and had literally thousands of lawsuits against him for failing to pay workers and debts. The only reason why he even stayed propped up was due to financing from Putin's people in Russia. You've read that thread, right?
He doesn't even own hardly anything now except for some money-losing golf courses and that one club. The money he makes is primarily off of selling his brand name. And the people who buy shyt because of the Trump brand name are the same 40% idiots who are still supporting him right now and calling him a hero. He's fine with them.
Besides, Trump has directed 20% of his campaign spending towards his own businesses. He's eating off of this election. More proof that he'll always prioritize his own bank account over anything else he does.
IF THAT'S TRUE, WHY DIDN'T HE APPEAL TO ECONOMIC REFORM STANS INSTEAD OF NEO NAZIS, BROTHER?
Do you think Trump makes it out of the crowded Republican primary and gets 2 billion dollars of free media coverage with "No TPP!" alone? The Republican base didn't even know what TPP was before Trump. The bombastic performance that carried him through the primary needed an equally coarse rallying call. It's a sad indictment on the state of American society, but gutter controversy sells, and Trump would not be here if he didn't appeal to that.
Support Trump! It's not his fault he's sided with the White Supremacists, they're the only ones who ever would have voted for him!
This is one of your most pathetic
for Trump yet, Hope. Extreme narcissists don't feel shame and have a cognitive distortion of reality in their minds that leads to the conclusion that they're always perfect.
If Trump has a shytty presidency, he'll still think he did a great job and everyone who thinks he didn't is wrong and he wouldn't give a fukk.
This is true.
Clinton is an actual racist, go look at the picture of her kissing a KLAN MEMBER
People are so blinded by their irrational hatred for Donald when he's never done anything near as damning. I wonder why the media won't bring up that picture
Why does every Trump supporter on here has a fake-European-sounding name? I mean, what's all this German and Italian stuff? Is this a thing with your people?
Wait a minute....they're not picking countries that have a documented history of hard-core racist totalitarian dictators, are they?
Are you unaware that Trump's own DAD was a klan member?
He ain't never repudiated that, but is still trying to attract those same guys TODAY.
Yet your indictment of Clinton is that she happened to be in the same Senate as a guy who had been in the Klan in the 1940s and publicly repudiated it in the 1950s.
