wrong.I don't think anyone has ever denied there are black Trump supporters. I know a couple in real life.
I think what is far-fetched is the insinuation that Trump will somehow out perform a generic Republican with black voters.
Nothing points to him exciting new black conservatives to come to the polls to swing the numbers, nothing points to him flipping enough black voters that vote Dem. He polls terribly with black voters.
I mean he will make his pitch about how great he has been for black people, cite the same **** Fox News peddles, and pray he can hit Bush Jr. numbers. But Bush Jr. Numbers are still around 12-15 percent.
But he knows he is not in a good place with most of them. That's why the GOP actively tries to suppress black voters. Because if black voters had great universal access to the polls, they would destroy Trump's path to reelection, lock the GOP out of the house, and hand the Senate to the Dems.
So it is kinda wild to me that anyone would make that argument about Trump's chances with black voters. Like there is this silent majority, or sizable minority, ready to insure a Trump reelection, yet the GOP makes it harder for them to vote. Like what level of idiot do right wingers think people are to believe that mess.
edit:
I want to let them slide for this... They got to dance their New Orleans song in the White House and that's cool, I guess. But... you gotta be aware of the optics. Whatever their intentions, this will be associated with Trump's WH, and as a bonus it's being sold as a pro-2A dance....
