Maybe I live in wonderland, but I never got the Trump criminal justice reform praise.

Folks not realising that the judges he is packing the courts with will be even more likely to fukk over black people with disproportionate sentences?

What gives? What am I missing?

You're missing that American voters are by-and-large dumb and easily swayed by disingenuous talking points.

Check this map out brehs...filter it to show only the voter registrations and tell me why I shouldn't be worried...

A lot of new registrations seem to be happening in Republican areas right?

:lupe::lupe::lupe::lupe:
On quick glance it doesn’t seem you can 100% glean either way. Just looking at GA one cluster mostly Metro at Atlanta that has a fairly strong and trending stronger Dem lean. The other looks closer to Savannah which has a higher minority population and I think some demographic shift.

I have no doubt that Republicans have made more gains in certain areas but also you have to look at the totality of gains since 2016 as well so it has more context.

Registrations don’t mean new voters. Often times they are independents that always voted GOP but never registered. In the South, Dixiecrats that always vote Republican are also changing registration.

It's almost like you didn't actually read what 19 No Covid said and just posted info. You are challenging whether Sammy Davis Jr was c00ning in that pic and whether it was a better look for black people to be seen with him rather than Clinton. A quick google of Nixon brings up things like this:
New audio of Nixon speaking to then California Gov. Ronald Reagan, along with the report from Naftali, who directed the Nixon Presidential Library from 2007 to 2011, brings up comments Nixon made about race and IQ.

According to Naftali's report, Nixon believed in a "hierarchy of races" with white people at the top and people of African and Latin American descent towards the bottom.

In previously released recordings, Nixon revealed his opinions on Africans and African Americans to Harvard professor Daniel Patrick Moynihan, who had briefly served in his administration, and discussed theories by Richard Herrnstein and Arthur Jensen, which linked IQ to race. (These theories remain controversial today and Herrnstein's co-authored book 'The Bell Curve" been argued about and called "junk science" and "racist" by others in the scientific community.)
New report highlights comments Richard Nixon made in favor of a debunked racist theory

That piece of trash was the one who refined the Southern Strategy (ignoring the black vote completely and catering to white supremacists to stay in power):
Nixon's advisers recognized that they could not appeal directly to voters on issues of white supremacy or racism. White House Chief of Staff H. R. Haldeman noted that Nixon "emphasized that you have to face the fact that the whole problem is really the blacks. The key is to devise a system that recognized this while not appearing to".[46] With the aid of Harry Dent and South Carolina Senator Strom Thurmond, who had switched to the Republican Party in 1964, Nixon ran his 1968 campaign on states' rights and "law and order". Liberal Northern Democrats accused Nixon of pandering to Southern whites, especially with regard to his "states' rights" and "law and order" positions, which were widely understood by black leaders to symbolize Southern resistance to civil rights.

His VP
In the coming campaign and the years that followed, Agnew would rocket from obscurity to national prominence with scorching speeches and off-handed slurs against Japanese Americans and Polish Americans. His dismissive comment about impoverished inner-city neighborhoods — “if you’ve seen one slum you’ve seen them all” — drew harsh criticism. In office, he assailed intellectuals as “an effete corps of impudent snobs” for coddling student protesters. He labeled congressional opponents of the war in Vietnam “radic-libs” and denounced Nixon administration critics as “nattering nabobs of negativism.”

Conservatives loved him. Liberals hated him. Democrats mocked him.

On April 11, following days of rioting in Baltimore that erupted after the assassination of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., Agnew met with African American leaders and accused them of failing to stand up to militants. More than half of the audience of 50 walked out in protest as Agnew continued his remarks, which gained nationwide attention.

So yes, it is worse for a black man to be hugging Nixon

Smh. My people aren't showing up in Dade, man :snoop:


There's some argument that Biden's chances in FL aren't as bad as this one story tells, due to his unexpected strength in other demos. But yeah, this is a reason why I left FL red on my map. Dems always seem to have a death by 1000 cuts down there. Would love to be wrong.

Overall that definitely doesn’t seem good but also that doesn’t seem like a lot of people for Election Day.

Obviously they need to vote........

I don’t think he gives Bernie or Liz the jobs they want. But I hope he proves me wrong for once.

They need to work in the Senate. Dem Senators can't be lost now. AOC and others need to fall back and not fall prey to the leftist performative nonsense that is too much tactics and not enough strategy. There are plenty of other good choices a new admin can make.
