William Barr - A New Strategy to Attract Black Voters?- SMH - I am concerned about the November Election

I am not sure if comparing the lock downs due to COVID to slavery is the right way to go...

This just tells me the executive branch must have no interest at all in attracting black voters.   Of all the things to compare it to, why pick slavery?   What the fuck is wrong with these people?  

As a developed country, we have always had a peaceful transfer of power in the US.  I have concerns about the November election, regardless of who wins.  The probability of chaos occuring after the election is getting higher by the day.  There will likely be civil unrest, no matter who wins.

I love when white SJW's try to think for black people with their savior complex.  Amid your conspiracies of Trump not transferring power or his supporters causing chaos should he lose (even though it's the left that's been rioting), his approval rating has been steadily increasing in both black and hispanic voters.  

Maybe the DNC's strategy of unleashing rabid animals in cities, bailing them out of jail or dropping charges, and then saying it'll continue if Trump wins has something to do with it.

You're cherry-picking polls - if you look at the averages Trump has not been doing well at all. 

There's really only one way for Trump to win with the current numbers - if the polls were wrong in the swing states like the way they were in 2016. The national vote was actually fairly accurate (+2.1 Actual vs +3.2 RCP Average).

If you look at the recent changes with mail-in voting in PA and in WI, including the green party getting kicked off the ballot, chances are higher than ever before for Biden to take this election. 

I'm not particularly left learning by any means but this is the general consensus at most banks (my bank is factoring in a democratic sweep). 

 

If you want to talk 2016 polls then we'll look at the only people who got it right.  Trafalgar Group currently has Trump +3.1% in Florida, +1.4% in Michigan, and +0.8% in Wisconsin.  He doesn't lose with those. 

 

Exact data aside, it is true that a lot of minority voters are turning away from the Democrats because they just don't buy the whole SJW nonsense coming from "white liberals".

Can you blame these people though? The "profressives" reneged on their promise about how "one day people won't be judged on the basis of their color but only their character". Now it's all about race.

MLK Jr once said, "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character." WTF happened to that?

 

lol yeah. Democrats have been slowly committing political suicide with all this SJW BS.

Most people don't want any "special treatment" because of their race nor judged on the basis of their race. They just want to be treated like a person and judged on the basis of their character.

If you ask me it sounds A LOT like, that whole "white men's burden" crap used to justify colonialism. Now that's called racism.

No wonder why Democrats are losing Black voters.

How is the idea of Trump not transferring power a conspiracy theory? He is already openly questioning the legitimacy of the election (he's not even questioning it really, just straight up saying it's rigged) and has told reporters "we will have to see" when asked if he would leave peacefully

 

And Democrats still haven't accepted the results of the last election, so what's your point?  

You people are just as retarded as the ones who said Obama wouldn't leave.

 

Black person says something other than agreed to being victimized and blatantly the truth regarding the left fucking encouraging absolute animals to attack society while lying to the world saying these are peaceful protests - then gets MS. Americans are the weak-minded, most gullible, and pathetic people in the world

 

This was a spontaneous post with very little thought going into it.  Out of my last 10 topics, 4 have been political.  On this site, people seem to be most interested in politics

 

Oh my, one of the 5 major liberal shills that regularly spouts garbage who then goes silent when they get buried in monkey shit and someone refutes their postulation with any actual data has made yet another contribution regarding black people in politics today. Is THIS one meaningful? Nope. Carry on. You people and your POC savior complex is disgusting and I sincerely hope you actually move to Canada or some other place that isn't here after Trump wins again.

 

You act as though there aren't millions of people both more intelligent and successful than you who also believe that Trump is the better choice and instead choose to broad brush every Trump voter as somehow less thoughtful than you. Enjoy your little ivory tower. You and your BLM/Antifa friends can go loot some more random businesses and execute/intimidate citizens based on their political affiliation in your blue states.

 

Voting for the POTUS is mostly based on emotion and not based on rational thought.   For this website, the pro- POTUS views are probably based on the fear of socialism  While the POTUS is not the next Hitler, his rise to power and views on power are not all that different from the that of fuhrer.

 

What are your thoughts about Kamala?
I don't think Harris vs. Trump is an unreasonable assumption to make. I suggest you look at the 25th Amendment (namely articles 3 and 4). 

 

Agreed - it's shocking to what lengths people will go to ensure their taxes don't go up. Also most finance jobs are in blue states, so I'd wager any tax hikes will be atleast partially offset by a SALT repeal. I'm fairly moderate on social issues and lean slightly to the right on economics, but there's no way I'm voting for Trump. The guy literally makes a mockery of America. 

 

Lol no one uses that shitty website of yours, don't kid yourself.
