The Racist rants of the Mainstream Media and the Dems. will be ferocious over the next two and one half months. They know if they lose a considerable percentage of the Black vote, they are history.

This will be very meaningful in the senate races
Loss of black vote will really take a toll

Not so much for the house

FDR gave 31 fireside chats between 1933 & 1944. That’s only about three per year (I thought it was a weekly or monthly event until I looked it up). But the three major radio networks CBS, NBC, & Mutual rebroadcast all of his speeches that were considered newsworthy giving him far more air time than the chats alone.

But neither newspapers or radio in those days were captive to the uniformly totalitarian ideology that grips the MSM today. A newspaper that was anti-FDR or anti-New Deal reflected the views of its editor or owner rather than conformity to industry-wide groupthink.

The genie is out of the bottle nowadays as far as sources of information. Corporate attempts to suppress conservative views will IMO not effectively shut down debate. And tweeting one’s thoughts of the moment becomes part of a permanent virtual archive. All that bigwigs like Brennan can reply is “harrumph-harrumph, I am a distinguished public servant so don’t you dare criticize me, you peasants”.

BTW I hope Pres. Trump swings the hammer and yanks the clearances of those 156 critics & more. What are they going to do, REALLY condemn him now?

Yet we keep hearing that the % of black and Latino support for Trump is much higher

Good ol’ Nate gave Cankles a 95 percent chance of winning tgecwhike House also, as I recall.

Nate’s math doesn’t apply in today’s Politics.

I told a kid who works for me the glee in which I told every phone pollster that I was a deep blue democrat who loved Hillary and all of her liberal friends, supported her positions 100% and that I am the epitome of a “very likely voter”. I suspect many of my conservative beathren did the same thing.

The kid was absolutely agog. “You can’t do that! You’ll mess up
their polls! You can’t do that!! IT’S ILLEGAL TO LIE TO A POLL TAKER!!”

Welcome to the big leagues, Kid!!

Omarosa became more of a liability than an asset to Trump after Trump got Candace Owens, Kanye West, and Kim Kardashian actively supported him.  Scott Adams says "Kanye West blew a hole in the universe" when Kanye (Ye) tweeted "I like the way Candance Owens thinks."

Omarosa, the Judas, could read the tea leaves and decided now was the time to pocket the silver coins, stab Trump in the back, and lead the "He's a Racist" parade.  The good thing we're learning is lots of Blacks absolutely hate Omarosa.  Meanwhile Trump gets rid of a White House bad apple -- and staff breathes a sigh of relief. Thanks General Kelly!

I give credit to Candace and friends for the big 36% Black approval numbers.  A mighty significant Walk Away is occurring.  Pelosi and the Dems are tearing their hair out... and the trend has only just begun.  GO TRUMP!

Title of article: New Poll Freaking out Democrats.

I had to go through three paragraphs of windbagging before finding what he’s talking about.

Haha!!! The more sleep they lose, the better. The Dems whispered to Trump “You cannot withstand the storm...” Trump smiled back and said “B*tches, I AM the Storm.”

Partner, u got that right!!!

It could not have happened to a nicer bunch of folks like the Rats.

African-Americans are not as ignorant as democrats think they are.

Partner, u hit a homerun with this statement, since it is so true.

Rasmussen poll showed that 36% of African American respondents gave the President a positive approval rating. In one year, the President’s African American approval rating increased by 17% in the Rasmussen poll.

Wouldn't that then be a 112% increase? That is, if he went from 17% of black support to 36%?

BTW, the "African-American" nomenclature is stupid and assumes that every American black came from Africa.

“True competition for African American votes may take many years to accomplish, but those important first steps may be starting right now.”

Good article until the last paragraph. With all the free handouts minorities have gotten and the preferential entrance into schools and state jobs, if they aren’t doing well it is their own fault.

Don’t worry.

The Democrats will supplant the lost Black Vote with their newest Plantation addition, the Illegal Invader Vote.

If the Rats win back the House, we will just shrug our shoulders and reaffirm our belief that blind ignorance fed by the Educational and Media Leftist Institutions cannot be overcome at this point in time.

If the Rats fail to take back the House, the Rioting in the Streets will be epic.

Only Lincoln comes close. He also faced opposition from the Copperhead Demons and his own party and was constantly being torn between those two and the ordinary citizens.

One of our greatest tragedies in US history came when Demon Booth killed Lincoln. It cost the South immeasurably.
