According to Rasmussen, President Trump’s approval rating among black voters is 31%.
And that my friends is exactly why the media is hopping on the Omarosa bandwagon.
Sure, they know her book is about as credible as an email from a Nigerian prince.
But they don’t care.
They need to ratchet up the “Trump is a racist” meme because the Democrat Party is hemorrhaging black voters.
The media believe that Omarosa and her over-the-top, fact-free accusations are just the ticket to turn blacks against the President.
What’s odd — and what these idiots in the news media fail to grasp — is this strategy isn’t working.
Ten days ago, Rasmussen reported Trump’s approval among black voters was 29%.
And after ten days of “Trump is a racist for calling Don Lemon dumb” and “Trump is a racist for insulting LeBron” and “Omarosa says Trump used the N-word on a tape she has yet to produce” and “Trump is a racist for calling Omarosa a dog,” that number went up to 31%.
But you know the definition of insanity.
They really believe that this time, the Trump is a Racist card will work.
Here’s the problem for the news media. For most Americans, having a job and more money in your pocket is vastly more important than the accusations from an unhinged, increasingly delusional bitter chick with a grudge.
But what else can they do?
The media can’t promote all the wonderful things Democrats have done to lift minorities out of poverty – mostly because Democrats haven’t done squat.
In fact, for 2018 Democrats are running on the exact opposite:
They’re campaigning for unfettered illegal immigration which drives down wages among the poor.
And they’re proudly campaigning on repealing the tax cuts and deregulation that have helped unleash this booming job market.
So what is the media to do?
Well, they play the race card.
“Sure, your life is better. But Trump is a racist who may or may not have, at one time, used the N-word on a tape that nobody can produce. And this bitter chick with a grudge says it exists even though she claims she never heard it but she heard it and it exists but nobody seems to know where it is.”
Gosh, I can’t imagine why that’s not working.
That’s precisely why they aren’t bothering to fact check Omarosa’s book before posting screaming headlines and chyron crawls promoting her increasingly wild accusations.
Common sense tells me that if in fact such a tape existed, it would have been released in the fall of 2016.
Does anybody believe for one microsecond that any person in possession of this elusive tape would have thought, “Boy, this tape would really kill Trump’s chances of beating Hillary. But you know what? On the slim chance he wins, let’s hang on to it for two years and release it before the Midterm elections.”
Come on.
Democrats and the media always push too hard and too far. There’s no way anybody would sit on that supposed tape before the 2016 election.
But no matter.
The media is desperately hoping that just hinting at the existence of such a tape will be enough to stop black voters from approving of the President’s job.
And they have good reason to be desperate.
If the Democrat Party loses 31% of black voters, the Red Wave this November will be more of a bloodbath.
But this tried and true racist smear that so effectively neutered previous Republican Presidents slides off of Trump like he’s been Scotch-Guarded for one obvious reason.
His actions as President do not support the accusation.
And when it comes to your own economic security, actions speak louder than Omarosa – no matter how big of a bullhorn the news media give her.
UPDATE It ain’t 31% anymore…
Today’s @realDonaldTrump approval ratings among black voters: 36%
This day last year: 19% https://t.co/mazBCWoIMy @POTUS @realDonaldTrump pic.twitter.com/uIqYxoBn6w

And every time that dog Omarosa shows her face on TV, I’ll bet Trump’s approval numbers go up among black MEN.
736% is even better. I’m glad the black community is waking up. It’s the only way to solve problems like Chicago, Detroit etc. let’s make sure all Americans are safe and prosperous.
This midterm election is going to be overrun with voter fraud...Probably the most ever...
We NEED to saturate the polls with conservative/Republican/Trump voters!!!!!!
36%
Dems to be permanent minority? Black support for POTUS Trump scales 36 percent

Delivering: The more successful POTUS Donald Trump and the GOP-controlled Congress are when it comes to reducing burdensome, costly regulations and promoting pro-growth policies that lift all boats in America, the more support they get from the black community, which is currently experiencing it’s lowest unemployment level in decades.
On Wednesday Rassmussen Reports noted that black support for POTUS Trump had doubled since last year to 31 percent.
Today that support has risen to an astounding 36 percent.

I was in a McDonalds and they had CNN on, it was muted but in big block letters on the bottom of the screen it said “Trump has a history of disparaging Blacks”. no matter what the story was they kept it posted on the bottom of the screen. This was on millions of TV’s all over the world stated as fact.

Not just among the black men, there are plenty of other black women who are just as put off by Omarosa. She is single-handedly promoting the very worst stereotype of the angry black woman, and it does not put anyone of African descent in a good light.
Her antics play well only among the BLM and SJW types, not among the now-employed and off-welfare individuals who have been emerging from their ghettos and semi-segregated communities, to become full-fledged American citizens.
Omarosa was at the top of the American Dream, rising on a remarkable talent of being in the right place at the right time, but she has squandered a tremendous advantage by indulging in a vindictive outburst that has little rationale, and many black people see this as an inexcusable fit of pique, not at all admirable.
Wow, he’s getting into Democrat numbers there . . .Sorry, couldn’t resist - I know you corrected it the best you could.
The target audience for the media must have joined #WalkAway
As does her bank account. Someone is paying her, follow the money.
It’s hard to have much credibility in someone who wrote a book named “The Bitch Switch: Knowing How to Turn it On and Off”
Darn keys are too close together....especially early in the morning
Yes I saw 39% the other day, not 36.
If so think about it. In wall street parlance a banger is doubling your money.
Going from 8% GOP norms in 16' as a candidate to 39% is 1% shy of a 5 banger.
Imagine if Trump was stock and you Quintupled your money in 18 months.
The e-GOPer's all need to get on their knees and pray that this man came and saved their sorry butts and their sorry party.
First the GOP came for the Blacks, when will it come for the Jews?
Both groups need to wake up about their loyalty to the Democratic Party, which has no principles except the acquisition of political power.
What do they suppose omarosa’s shrewish behavior as an employee will do for the prospects of black ladies ever being hired to work in high-prestige office situations ever again? Hmmmm?
You know what? They don’t care about black people; they only care about hating Trump.
31% is great but the latest number 36% is better.
The media is a thug arm of the Democrat Party.
