Before Trump took office, conventional wisdom was that American blacks would never vote Republican. As Lyndon Johnson reputedly said after passing the Civil Rights Act, “I’ll have those n****** voting Democratic for the next 200 years.” (snip) All of the prominent blacks who have transferred their allegiance to Trump have gotten grief for doing so. Nevertheless, most of them are sticking to their guns and every day more join in. This is a preference cascade in action.
Pair the preference cascade with the news that, after the last debate, 46% of black voters support Trump
Poor Joe, everyone on the Left will for losing the black vote. Not that Joe will understand anyway...

Loved the film of Harry(?), the American (who happened to be black) in the car eating, and proclaiming support for the President!

I see where L'il Wayne met with President Trump. Heads exploded all over but L'il Wayne is not budging. Good for you sir. Black people who look at how their lives were before Trump and how much better off they are now will vote for him,

A person can say anything they want in public (in theory) but when they are in the ballot booth they are anonymous. There is a lot of pressure for blacks to stay dimocrat but in the booth they can do what they want.

I do not have much faith in the Blacks voting for trump.
When I ride through the black neighborhoods in my part of the country all i see are Biden signs.

We are about to witness a tsunami coming from the young black voter. Once this starts, it's over for the dem's. Do not underestimate this voting block. What happens with social media, word gets out that there is a protest, before you know it, there is a massive movement to show up at the protest or riot and they start doing their thing (looting, burning and beating).
You know what happens when there is a new MJ Nike sneaker about to be released, these people go insane, words gets out and they show up ready to fight to get their pair. Now take that laser focus and apply it to the next latest and greatest trend that is is about to take place .................."you ain't sh#%^$t if you ain't vot'n Trump!!!
Trump is the next Michael Jordan and will be the hip thing in black community, pushed hard by the black youth. They won't know why they are supposed to like Trump, it's just that Lil' Wayne says to like Trump so they will go out of their minds to vote for Trump. Similar to what has happened to the black athlete, "yo, you in for BLM right, not knowing what BLM really stands for, the peer pressure is to much to bear for these young pampered black men and they just go with the flow, "yeah, I'm in". This is how the black vote will turn republican, the young black thug, go figure!!

Heard yesterday that a Rasmussen poll shows 31% of blacks support Trump. The common wisdom has been, for the last several decades, that if the Republicans got more than 15% of the black vote, the demonrats were finished. PDT now has double that number. Blacks are waking up, seeing that things are much better for them under PDT and participating in Candace Owens’ BLEXIT movement. And Finger’s “you ain’t black” comment sealed the deal.
The same poll shows Hispanic support for PDT in the mid 40% range.
MAGA!

Let's hope that this shift adds to the momentum for the President.
The polls are, I am convinced, very much part of the larger propaganda operation. That and some significant incompetence and error, too, as people have become harder to reach (intentionally, due to incessant phone solicitation) and more willing to lie to pollsters, with the threats to Trump's supporters being made known.

Slightly off topic, but how did 1994 Crime Bill send "generations of black sons, brothers, and fathers to prison"? Conrad Black makes the same argument in his column here: https://outline.com/wHx5Rv
Are both writers desiring 'equality of incarceration'? If bLACKS didn't commit a disproportionate number of crimes, then the sons, brothers, and fathers wouldn't wear stripes.

I tend to agree, #10.
The only issue that I see as potentially legitimate is extremely harsh sentences for small drug crimes. Some being sent to prison for life for certain drugs seems wrong. Drugs are harmful, I never used them, never will, don't even drink, but life for having some drugs? I have trouble supporting that.
I have no trouble supporting harsh sentences for violence, that seems like a good thing to me. Non-violent crimes should be deterred, but not on the same level as violent crimes.
