Well no you dont disagree, because I absolutely agree that people vote with their wallets first and foremost.
Black folk and Latino's are more likely to vote Democrat because the Democrats are more likely to meet their financial needs. In the 1930's-1960's the Democrats were the official party of the KKK and of the staunch racists, yet they captured the black vote by overwhelming numbers.
If the economy is booming and these demographics are doing extremely well under a Republican, the chances of them voting for that Republican in re-election are very high, the same is true for the opposite.
The U.N. cast their vote for Trump to rescind his claims that Jerusalem is the capital.... Yeah like that is going to happen.
American leads, those other countries follow. Jerusalem is the capital of Israel, and should be completely in Israeli and not terrorist control.
Americans love this kind of stuff, because prior Presidents didn't have the balls to do this.
I doubt it will. I was just pointing out that he threatened to cut off aid to countries and they still voted null and void. Doesn't seem like he has the respect of other countries
Jim thats a ridiculous over simplification of the Democratic party. during that time Blacks in the US were disproportionately poor. The New Deal policies from Democrat FDR were aimed at the poor, hence large support from blacks. Also, the Southern blur dog dems were racist, yes, but that wasn't the rest of the party.
You continually create the false narrative that the minority vote is purchased by Democrats. Yet you never suggest the Republican party purchases the white vote through the things it does.
As I said to you in an earlier discussion if you discuss the issues that people care about, you will get the minority vote because minorities have the same issues as whites , controlling for income/net worth.
If, however, the Republican party continues to focus on abortion, voter ID laws, and issues that only appeal to the base, which lacks people of color, then you can't expect minorities to vote Republican.
Speaking on NFL A huge chunk of the population does not understand this message, and harbors an animosity toward him for it. Better if he never released it.
Condemning Racists (Charlottesville) - They don't make up anywhere near your base, condemn them. The overwhelming majority of your supporters don't approve of them either.
Speaking on the NFL HAD to happen. It got way to out of control. He did what HAD to be done.
Condemning Racists - Are you saying he didn't or did?
On the bad side, you cant leave out that the country as divided as its been in a long time.
Most definitely. Controversy and conflict have surrounded Trump his whole life. Give him the biggest platform he's ever had, and he'll sure as **** stir up more controversy than ever before.
