Trump got exposed heavily on that with ONLY one small page that was supposed to address Cube's concerns and yet TLR still pretends that Cube didn't get played like a PS5 by Trump with the Platinum Plan BS.Lol didn't Trump meet with Ice cube and promise that platinum plan for black people or whatever the fukk it was called. How did that turn out?
Overall, regardless of how you feel about Democrats, I don't know what the GOP even has to offer Black people that would even be better.
Republican states like Alabama, Louisiana, and Mississippi have done a WORSE job at resolving Black poverty, miseducation, gun violence, health problems, and illiteracy than most Blue States. New York, Maryland, and California have much stronger Black middle class communities than them. It's not even close. Queens has had Black people having a higher median household income than White people since the 90's. Name me ONE Red State where that's happened.
Even Atlanta, Charlotte, and Houston which do have Black middle classes are basically the Blue oasis of their states. All 3 are basically the most liberal cities in the whole South but I'm supposed to give the GOP credit for the rising Black middle class there? Nah.
Trickle down economics, banned abortions, banned Black history in schools, reduced tangibles, reduced government aid, militarized police, loose gun laws, limited public transit, mass incarceration, softened stances on White supremacist groups/activity, etc. doesn't seem any more alluring that what we have now.
Could there be better Democrats to represent? Absolutely. I would've taken Bernie, Warren, Williamson(pro reparations candidate), etc. over Biden any day of the week but I still would rather deal with Biden than whatever the GOP is proposing. Even Trump's immigration crackdown wasn't any stronger than Obama's. People just fell for the lie that Trump was so anti-amnesty and pro-American worker even though the record doesn't even show him to be all that hardlined in that field.
Seriously, though, I genuinely don't see what the GOP has to offer to us that's actually viable. COVID f*cked up the job market and inflation more than Biden ever did and, if you think Trump's going to snap his finger like Thanos and bring us back to pre-COVID times, then you might as well believe in the Tooth Fairy and Santa Claus......
