Forbes: Will Surviving Gunfire Be Donald Trump’s Next Appeal To Black Voters?

[mag357]

Here we go. Bout to be another case of the Coli getting mad at shyt THAT IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING

Trump inexplicably getting the black vote is a real thing. Trump gaining appeal for being a rebel is a real thing. Sauce gardener made that post. AB called him ‘Ngga of the decade’. The 50 cent memes. These are all real things

This is a case of black folk wanting to believe there’s a secret section of the internet where ugly truths are just for black eyes, well it don’t work that way. Mfers eulogized OJ Simpson like he was MLK. Black folk mock dead white folk. Gender war, diaspora war, ‘both sides’, etc. The world sees it. Folk keep getting mad when the world reports these ugly truths, when you should be mad at the fukkery within the black monolith

You know they just skipped over your comment right bro.

This should have just ended the whole thread.

You know these MFers retarded right bro

COLI, did we read the article….?
________________

“The presumptive Republican presidential nominee has repeatedly contended that the August 2023 release of his criminal mugshot deeply resonated with Black voters because they know firsthand the unfairness of our nation’s criminal justice system. He has since relied on that narrative to persuade more Black Americans to cast votes for him this November. More Black men now than four years ago say they’re voting for Trump this time, but not many of them say they’re planning to do so because of any notion of shared kinship with judicial injustice.
Hopefully, being shot doesn’t become a similarly problematic strategy to link Trump with an experience that far too many (not all) Black people have. Instead, using his powerful platform to advocate fixing this through public policy and significant financial investments into urban Black communities is the opportunity that awaits Trump once he recovers from the tragedy that occurred at his rally. Another racially problematic kinship narrative is unlikely to make Black voters see Trump as one of them. And it most certainly won’t fix the gun violence crisis in rural, suburban, and urban places in which too many Americans are unnecessarily placed at risk of being shot.

Immediately after shots were fired, Trump fell and then secret service agents rushed to his side. He was down just over one minute. As the agents lifted him and he stood again, Trump looked into the crowd and raised his fist.

Extending gloved hands skyward in racial protest, [+]COPYRIGHT 1968 AP. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. THIS MATERIAL MAY NOT BE PUBLISHED, BROADCAST, REWRITTEN OR REDISTRIBUTED.

After winning gold and bronze medals for their spectacular performances in the men’s 200-meter race at the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City, American track athletes Tommie Smith and John Carlos raised gloved fists as they stood on the podium. The two Black men were protesting racial injustice in their home country as “The Star-Spangled Banner” began to play. The photograph of what has since become known as the “Black Power Salute” remains one of the most iconic images in global sports history. Hopefully Trump doesn’t claim that his raised fist was an homage to Smith and Carlos, two powerful Black Americans.
In June 2020, many Black Americans and supporters from other racial groups marched in cities all across the nation with their fists raised. They were protesting Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin’s murder of George Floyd, an unarmed Black man. Many outraged citizens peacefully marched outside the White House. Then-President Trump weaponized the National Guard and law enforcement against them. But now, just over four years later, there’s a chance that his raised fist at the Pennsylvania rally becomes erroneously connected to the Black people who were marching with fists raised in rallies in summer 2020 and at other moments in American history. Let’s hope not.”

Forbes didn't do themselves any favors by deleting the article altogether instead of just changing the thread title, so people could actually read what it said.

The article title alone is enough to make people want to have no part of reading it.

I couldn't think of a trifecta of 3 intellectually dumber Black men if I tried. Thats who you think represents the Black community

 

[Devil Plisken…CMS]

Damn smh

Yup as the link in the OP takes you to the main Forbes website.

So now the title of the article is floating around social media and on this site with no context of what the article actually says.

A major goof on their part.

 

[skylove4]

Yes, that is a real title.

Big time fukk up

A lot of times, people do not have time to read the whole argument presented in a op-ed, so the tone of the work is judge initially by the title. They know what they are doing, when they do that. Which annoys me, because it is not hard to make sure the tone of the title fits the writing.

Exactly why make a title like that???Clickbait???

What’s shocking about this? Black Trump supporters are a joke. They’re being racist in y’all faces but y’all still defend this neo nazi cult member.

Who is defending him? Name names. Enough with this generalized blaming of everyone, when everyone, and not even most of us, are not doing it. So be specific with your claims about members supporting a neo nazi cult member.

I am seriously tired of someone coming in and trying to blame everyone for what a minute few are doing. Like even you trying to do this in this thread, and I have not read one person in this thread taking the side of Trump.

 

[Michael's Black Son]

Sure. This will totally appeal to 70+ year old black grannies

 

[Roger king]

If you are black and you dont feel insulted by this nonsense and asinine suggestion then i dont know what to say, how lowly people think of the black voting population. Trump is a charlatan
