Lynne Patton: African-Americans Will ‘Finally Vote Republican’ and Swing Election to Trump

Sure hope this is true. I see a lot of good signs out there.

Lynne Patton: African-Americans Will ‘Finally Vote Republican’ and Swing Election to Trump

Trump is the first candidate I've ever heard address inner-city violence. Our minorities live in a war zone in the inner-city. They literally grow up around murder. Yet no one speaks out for them. The dems spend their time defending thugs that attack police officers and most republicans just ignore the problem, thinking there's no votes there for them.

Trump has boldly gone there, and I believe he's changing a lot of minds. God bless him for this.

Trump's sales pitch to blacks is to detail their plight and then end with: "vote for me, what have you got to lose?" Really, is this pitch going to convince anyone?

Well, if any group of people know what they've got to lose it's African Americans.

Yet another prediction based on demographics but I seriously doubt the GOP will come anywhere close to winning the black vote for Trump - what you could have here is a doubling or more of what Romney got in 2012 - that was around 6% IIRC.

The black vote is 22% of the total Democrat vote, any inroads in that cripples Hillary. About hispanics, latnos, I have heard the argument that these groups are too "macho" to ever go for Hillary and they will vote Trump or stay home. Again, we'll see soon.

He won't get a majority, but he'll at least double Romney. If he triples Romney it's over.

Hispanics voting for Trump? Not going to happen. Any battleground state with a significant Hispanic population will likely go Clinton. That includes Nevada, Colorado, and yes, Florida.

C'mon 777, the election is tomorrow. Time to start making predictions!

 

[Calminian]

Wow, Zaac now with a racist gesture. You're staring to lose it man. You're exposing yourself. Just for the record, Zaac is anti-Trump pro-Hillary.

Some it has . Some it hasn't. Blacks have been voting against their own self interest for decades. It won't change overnight. But some of them are beginning to realize democrats have sold them a bill of goods and then sold them out and taken them for granted. Democrats neverr feel they have to deliver on their promises to blacks and Obama's performance for blacks has been abyssmal. They'll get the black vote anyhow. Republicans on the other hand have sometimes ignored them because they know they won't vope for them no matter what thjey do.

So Trump is right. What have they got to lose?

 

[Squire Robertsson]

Actually he's anti-both. It's unknown specifically who he is for. Zaac laid out a lot of what he expects from the candidate he'd vote for. But, he hasn't named who meets his criteria.

Wow, Zaac now with a racist gesture. You're staring to lose it man. You're exposing yourself. Just for the record, Zaac is anti-Trump pro-Hillary.

 

[777]

Who really cares what he does, he's in Georgia and that is a Trump state.

There are some signs that Hillary is in trouble with the black vote, especially with black men:

C'mon 777, the election is tomorrow. Time to start making predictions!

Not so much as going to vote for Trump, more like not voting for Hillary. Texas will go Trump, California will go Clinton, AZ will "come home", NV will probably go to Hillary, NM will be very close as well, he's got Florida and Colorado. What I find even worse for Hillary is this:

her internal polling probably looks awful

...her internal polling probably looks awful

There are definitely a lot of reports on internal polling favorable to Trump.

Po' thang. This is the process that folks go through when they lie to themselves.

I do not know where you live, which state or community. Wherever. It is you must be very insulated from reality in the African-American community. I live in a predominately African-American county and have quite a number of friends and acquaintances who are African American. I have yet to hear one African-American person say they are going to vote for Trump. IMHO very few African-Americans will vote for Trump.

The percentage would be small. If Trump gets 12-20% that would be huge and very encouraging to me. Black Americans are much more conservative than the vote.

I know several that have said they will vote for Trump.
