Hopefully this gets more attention because it's pretty spot on. In my space, I know a lotta dudes, especially hood dudes who are usually up to no good, that vote/support trump mostly for his machismo BS. Usually they don't have any educated legitimate reason, and instead go for the hes a billionaire, business man, contrarian, he says what he wants, hes "not part of the system", just base dumbassness. A high-level hood dude who they emulate on this is unfortunately 50 Cent. Which... yea, 50 can do/say what he wants, it wont affect him at all. The rare highly educated blacks I know personally that support him, are unfortunately the smart, successful but deep down mysogenistic, borderline self-hating Uncle Ruckus types who have scraped and scrimped to build a better life and feel the need to align with thee deepest of Conservative ideals, even though they're not really wanted in that room. It's a weird bunch.
