    If there are any of you on here tell me, but I have guesses.
    If you ask them if they think Trump is a racist they would say he sure is, but a brother's gotta eat. They believe without evidence that Trump will be better for the economy despite threatened tariffs and Musk saying the populous will have to tighten their belts.
    The other thing is little preference for a Black female president. Black women are doing much better than Black men. They make more money, more are employed and at historically Black colleges male enrollment is down to almost 25%. I think there is an undercurrent of resentment against Black women leaving Black men behind and they are not going to help one to get ahead.

    Without evidence? There is a 4 year sample from Trump's first term.

    Black worker participation rates went down under Biden. Maybe start there.

    My own unprovable, subjective opinion is that the Democrat Party tried to promote Kammy as being "Black" -- and that therefore American Negroes should stampede to vote for her.

    Well, by any logical measure of "blackness", she is actually probably no more than 25% Black (examine her father closely). But worse for the Democrats was the assumption that 95% of American Negroes are so easily misled and stupid that they'd willingly be herded along with this kind of nonsense! Although we haven't yet seen exactly which ethnic groups voted, in what kind of "tonnage", or for who, it seems obvious that not nearly so many voted for Kammy as Democrats assumed would do so. :lonely:

    *** Afterthought: interestingly, not even Barack Obama (himself only 50% Black) was able to 'sell' the concept of Kammy's "blackness" and, therefore, her desirability.... **** :spin:

    Trump loves tariffs is the evidence.
    That's not a thing. Everyone took a hit during Covid.

    Red Chinese are also buying up huge swathes of our farmland, so it's not just offshoring that is a national security threat.Our business and govt. elites are absolutely nuts and completely oblivious to our national security.

    Some blacks and latinos hve finally figured out who the illegal aliens are really meant to replace. is all.

    Believing the Democratic party is the racist party is delusional.

    You have no credibility if you think "democrats love goods manufactured using slave labor," that is partisan ignorance.
    Any tariff 10 to 20% will be passed along to the consumer. It can stimulate US manufacturing eventually but the prices will not come down because US labor is more expensive, so whoever runs next will be asking were you better off four years ago?

    And why did they vote for a racist?

    Pretty graph....leaves out most of 2023 and all of 2024 though where black unemployment is now 5.7%. 1.7% higher than the entire labor force, and the overall worker participation rate fell 4/10ths last month....

    If 'race' is unimportant to the Democrat Party then why does it put such unendingly hyper-excessive importance on it? Why do they push "DEI"? Why do they push "reparations" for slavery that ENDED 157 years ago? Why do they push "affirmative action" (reverse discrimination)? Why do they restrict recruitment for positions like that of a SUPREME COURT JUSTICE to include only some BLACK woman -- and no one else? On and on and on.... :lonely:

    Truth? The Democrat Party absolutely STINKS of racism... and they think that nobody sees it?! Now, that surely is utterly delusional!

    Okay so we have for the reason that black men didn't vote for the half Indian half Jamaican woman....

    They either don't care or are too stupid to realize that Trump is a racist.... And they are misogynist who hate black women.

    Where do these so-called progressives come up with these ideas?

    And progressive is a very deceptive term because progressive doesn't necessarily mean things are progressing in a positive direction.

    Cancer and alcoholism are just two examples of things that can get progressively worse.

    Under progressive misleadership, America is something that has certainly gotten progressively worse

    Yeah I remember that time as it conservative racist that I voted for a president that said that he didn't want his children growing up in a racial jungle and fought against the desegregation of public schools. Extreme sarcasm alert in case anyone needs it......

    But thank God we have the white liberal to tell the black man when they should be offended by perceived racism. Those poor black guys wouldn't know if they should be offended without some white liberal telling them to be offended.

    They probably also need some white liberal explaining to them how they are misogynistic against women of their own race

    The record low Black unemployment and poverty rate were set under Biden, so its still not a thing.

    You don't get it. Blacks are important members of the Democratic party. There are 56 Black members of Congress. 53 are Democrat. They help decide policy and their input is taken seriously, unlike the GOP. Something or someone does stink of racism but its not the Democratic party.

    I bet your clue is even slighter.
    Well, Mr. Hyperbole, what's the right-winger theory as to why some Black men are drawn to Trump?

    Real unemployment has been hovering near 24%. Both Democrats and Republicans routinely lie about that as well as inflation rates. Most people aren't fooled by either.

    they are going to be replaced by the Biden administration importing illegal aliens, at least until Trump is sworn in. there is already a street war between blacks and latino gangs being fought over the drug trade and cheap housing. A lot of former black neighborhoods have already been turning brown in LA and New York and Dallas. Some black males are bright enough to notice, most aren't.

    Why don't you ask the black man? There are plenty of video interviews out there where they speak for themselves.

    But don't let that stop you you get out there and you round them up and you put them back on that plantation.

    A certain amount of black men connected with Trumps message.

    Are black men allowed to think on their own? Or is diverse thinking only ok for white men.

    This is extremely bigoted and misandrist. It is the type of post that belongs on a white supremacist forum, not here. I think Democrats have been taking certain demographics for granted, as evidenced by bigoted/misandrist Internet posts from people who are irate that black men think for themselves.

    That's a social justice warrior for you.

    They can spot racism everywhere except for right where it actually exists.

    It's like no one notified her that the Democrats are not allowed to own black men anymore

    You'd have to ask the 21% who supported Trump why they voted that way.

    Do you know why 37% of white men voted for Harris? No, - you don't know. People have their reasons. The OP tried to make it sound like all, or most, black men pulled for Trump, so I showed the truth, - that very few of them did.

    Taking almost 2% of blacks out of the workforce in the stats to create the illusion of record low kind of creates smoke. Either way, blacks moved toward Trump again so either 1) Trump is doing something right or 2) Biden/Harris is doing something wrong. Which is it?

    Trump is an obese male, guess he could be an obese female too
