So you think the dems would lose enough white democrat voters to counteract the increase in minority turnout they would get? I’m not sure I buy it. I think the same folks willing to vote for Clinton would be more than willing to vote for a minority, and I think they get increased minority turnout.

Yes,, to a degree, and for two reasons. One, Obama ran as a smooth, friendly guy. He was overwhelmingly pushing that “no drama” thing. he was smart enough that you can’t scare whitey and also get his vote. Booker and Harris, and everyone else I can think of is pure anti-white anger...and that won’t sell.
The second reason is that Trump started out far better than any recent GOP candidate with blacks and is having increasing success. Dennis Rodman crying on TV that Trump listened to him when Obama wouldn’t. Good old Kanye helping out. Trump pardoning that black woman in for life because Kim Kardashian asked him. That kid a week ago making a big deal about being “off the democrat plantation”.
And if things keep going well with North Korea, I think that will actually help him with US blacks. They don’t care about foreign policy much, BUT, they will absolutely notice Trump willing to address the concerns of a social pariah and fix a systemic issue.
This is not the election for a democrat minority, Obama was a one time success, like hijacking airliners with box cutters.
