Better get on that word-of-mouth advertising. She did great with black women at the beginning of her campaign. She shouldn't have let up.

Facts. My mom, whose in SC, learned of Liz from some of her earlier outreach with black panels.

But Biden owns the black vote in SC... And there's a chance he goes 0fer, team Big Joker clearly has picked up on that. Cats will stay home if they aren't energized to vote. Literally all I'm saying...

At least you see it. I think at this point Trump's a favorite and the Dem nom is a heavy underdog. I'd be worried.

this is exactly how it is economys too good, its as good as its been in 20 years

i mean seriously, you probably have to go back to the 90s to pick a better year

The Dallas Cowboys theory. I dig it. And they still America's team.

Probably the dotcom bs

The lower income brackets arent seeing much though as usual. Im making more money because im working harder not because my rate increased. and its harder for me because my service fees are going up so its passed to the consumer just for me to see the same income per customer

Black folk would be mothafukkin fools to accept an invitation from trump and the gop after the shyt they have shown these past 3 years

8%, to them, only leaves room for growth... And non-voter activity amongst a Dem candidate only heightens that number.

Trump is a terrible orator wtf is this shyt

Look at the reviews. We're in a real life Idiocracy

All he had to say was, "African-Americans were treated so wrong. So so wrong. By the Demonic Democrats in the 90s. Just ask Bernie Sanders, Joe Biden, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton. That's why. I will ask Congress. To pass a bill. So African-Americans can open marijuana shops and farms with free licensing and no fees.".

It don't matter whether that's bullshyt or not. That would have locked up Trump 2020 for sure.

Doesn’t matter what Trump says at a speech if his Republican governors and foot soldiers on the daily are shutting down polling places so they can win local. Letting local cops get away with killing their kids. Not to mention the Africa bans.

Too many old black people alive lived through the marches to know platitudes and actions are two different things.

Well the last 50 years are arguable. But ok.

 

[goatmane]

Well put, he is going to keep hammering away at this and I honestly seeing getting some traction and spooky shyt.

Post some examples

My humble take from the SOTU, we saw Trump the showman, but what grinded my gears was how the Big Joker clearly highlighted a potential poach: black votes.

He (and/or) his staff clearly feel there isn't a Dem. Candidate who can maximize the enthusiasm or respect of the overall black vote. So big up Tim Scott, bring up the now-clean ex-Army contractor, the former Tuskegee airman (and make him a brigadier general to boot while next to his grandson), "give" a scholarship to the daughter of the single mother from Philly... Etc.

All this tangible talk and it's application to Nov, team 45 tipped their hat. They as of now think Bernie or Biden, and they addressed both tonight, in terms of a poach.

Need more time to process, but I don't feel any of these dem candidates understand the challenge they face with this cat, envelopes of cash aside.

Dems are playing checkers.

Dems are in no danger of losing black votes to Trump

Post examples of him hammering away at trying to get black voters to vote for him?
What are you asking me?

The economy is an illusion. Poor people are still poor. Working class are still seeing price hikes across the board for living expenses and their pay raises aren't countering it effectively.

Healthcare is still a mess too. Some of y'all sounding like Trump supporters in here. Most Americans are still struggling and are not seeing the benefits of this "great economy"
