Color me skeptical that 22% of Black men are headed over to the GOP. I mean, maybe. But Republicans are pretty bald about the fact that they don’t think Black people are human.
This is such garbage and I hope that one day you realize that your "I like you black people, regardless of what the right wing says about you guys" routine is actually incredibly racist. Its gross that you even say these vile sentiments out loud, claiming you're just paraphrasing the other guys.
You know many of us know Republicans in real life, right? And we can see the way you act? It’s not a secret that the GOP collectively hates Black people.
Which is why these dumb articles are wrong every 4 years. But Rs love to point to them, and then they get disappointed. Hilarious.
The problem is not that black people will support Trump, they won't. The problem is they may not vote at all. My son won't vote for anyone who supports the war in Israel. He's pissed with Biden. We are black. He definitely won't vote R.

So how is any of that somehow a big decision point item?
Age - Trump is almost as old as Biden and in worse physical and mental shape
Immigration - Trump doesn't have any legitimate working solutions either
Support for Israel - Trump was buddy-buddy with Bibi Netanyahu
Sexual identity - what do you think Trump is going to do? Maybe mock people over their sexual identity, but certainly won't have any kind of coherent policy
Homelessness - The GOP doesn't give a single crap about the homeless
Access to healthcare - from the Republicans who take massive donations from big pharma and the health insurance industry, they want to kill medicare, defund NIH and medical research, make you leave the state in order to get a medically necessary abortion even when your life is in danger, get rid of vaccines and all kinds of crazy shit.
Housing - Republicans have ZERO solutions on housing and are propped up by real estate speculators who've caused the cost of housing to spike
Crime - Republicans don't have any answers on crime, just more of the same old failed war on drugs, mass incarceration of blacks, more racial profiling, and everything else
There's no fear mongering needed. This is their actual track record. This is reality. This is fact.
You wanna be mad that Democrats haven't done enough to fix any of this - but Republicans are the ones breaking everything and making it so that it needs to be fixed in the first place.
Pardon me for expecting the man I voted for in 2020 to actual fix some of the problems that concern some of his constituents. Didn't Biden promise to clean up this mess? In some instances he's doing the same thing Trump did and has made other things worse.
That’s ridiculous.
Which part is ridiculous?
Blaming the President for not magically making all your dreams come true when almost every other government, public, and private institution in the country is controlled by obstructionists. Biden is doing as much as any President can do on the issues you complain about.
+1000
Biden was handed a shit sandwich of a broken economy by Trump, and a country ravaged by over a million dead from COVID, broken supply chain, massive debt with nothing to show for it, more than 75% of Americans living paycheck to paycheck, and turned America around to where unemployment dropped back down to record lows including for African-Americans, made much needed investments in American infrastructure and industry, IN SPITE of a completely dysfunctional GOP-run House of Representatives.
Unemployment depends on how you count it. If people just retire and you stop counting them, then of course you're going to have low unemployment rates.
What exactly would you like the House to do? Just keep passing spending bills of every social program and handout you want because "you want"? Well F no. Your whole outlook on budgets is screwed up. You think everyone is owed by the tax payer. They aren't. Half the country doesn' even pay any income taxes b/c of a HIGHLY progressive tax system (more progressive than many countries in Europe BTW), and your democrat party champions importing even more poverty from central and south America. Why? Becausd it makes you feel better I guess. It's INSANE.
Are you admitting to Cloward and Piven as a strategy? Is that the plan??

Do you understand how government works? He can not do much -even many- of what you want without Congress. And the House can’t even keep a Leader. So. . . Why is this on Biden?
I hope you understand that you were lead to this conclusion because that's how a lot of black voters feel - why vote (for Biden) when he "can't do much" because his hands are tied. It's seems like an exercise in futility.
So, just let chaos reign?
That doesn’t seem like a reasonable solution at all
Work our tails off together to elect Ds so we can actually get things done rather than have the party of no do their damage
Ds are the party of damage. They're insane.

The economy was going to be crap regardless because of the pandemic. Maybe you think Biden would have done a better job but there's no way to tell. That said, we have record homelessness, record debts and empty food banks despite your rosy view of the economy from your Bethesda bubble.

Cast your eyes on Chicago NYC, Baltimore and San Fran and show me the esteemed Republicans in charge of these messy cities. Mayor Adams is about to jump out of a window from the daily busloads on illegals. Why isn't Biden doing more to stop these invaders?

Let’s roll the Mitch McConnell tapes, shall we…
“We paid for the sin of slavery by electing Barack Obama.”
“My top goal is to make sure Obama is a one-term President.”
“On that sad day when we lost Justice Scalia, I made another pledge that Obama would not fill this seat, That honor will go to Donald Trump next year.”
And that kids is how McConnell solidified a conservative Supreme Court Justice and the election of Trump. Now he gazes into the abyss of nothingness after doing as much earthly damage as possible.
