Voters Think Young Blacks Doing Better Under Trump Than Obama
Rasmussen ^ | 06 05 2018 | Rasmussen

Posted on 06/05/2018 2:34:30 PM PDT by yesthatjallen

Voters feel young black Americans are better off under President Trump than they were under Barack Obama, the nation’s first black president.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey shows that 32% of Likely U.S. Voters believe life for young black Americans has gotten better since Trump’s election. Slightly more (36%) say life for these Americans has gotten worse, while 26% think it has stayed about the same. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

But in March 2014, just 16% said life for young black Americans had gotten better since Obama’s election five-and-a-half years earlier. By July 2016 in Obama’s final year in office, only 13% thought life was better for young blacks.

Even black voters are nearly twice as likely (28%) to say young black Americans are better off now than they were in the closing year of Obama’s presidency (15%).

Etc...

*if the trend continues and lasts.

All Democrats have to do is come up with another 'free' minority program to push.

Who knows, maybe they'll whisper the r-word (reparations).

“Hopefully this will translate to votes.”

Ironically it helps him with the white vote, as moderates want to see Republicans trying to help blacks, rather than trying to enslave them (as the Democrats basically claim).

Blacks, of course, are also responding. They know instinctively that Trump really does care about them (i.e., no one ever claimed he was a racist until he got into politics), but I suspect a lot of blacks aren’t so sure that the Democrats love them for more than just their votes.

Once the message finally resonates with young Blacks that Conservatives want them to succeed and be the best they can ever be, and thrive - the Demoncrat party is finished.

Trump is neither pro black nor anti black as he is not pro white or anti white. Trump has created a business environment that is pro growth and pro jobs. He has created an environment where people of all races have opportunity.

Trump is pro American. Many many many businesses have signs in their windows asking for workers to apply for open jobs. It is working!

Maybe because it is a Fact. How strange of people to accept Reality.

The “news” love to make this about race. In truth success knows no bounds as you know.

Being Pro-American means he’s for everybody here (legally).
Now whether they recognize it or not is another issue. Let’s pray this continues.

“Hopefully this will translate to votes.”

Just a few percentage points will make a big difference. We can only hope that enough Blacks jump off the dimoKKKRAT plantation.

IMO, not so much voting GOP as much as just staying home and not voting at all.

And that just leaves it open to some casting the vote for the person that stayed home, especially in Dem strongholds.

I think a lot of them do occasionally, but regard their pottage as enough to put such unpleasant thoughts out of their minds.

It is in the political best interests of the Republican Party for African Americans to achieve economic parity with the national average...it is in the best interests of the Democrats for this to never occur as having a dependent class is their power base. Hopefully this realization will become more widely known in time.
