Agreed. It was kinda shocking to me tho, especially with trump’s ideals. You’d expect most black folks not to like him.

If we are judging solely by the screen shot you posted, most black folks do.

You know what they meant lol. Sure a majority of black people aren’t voting for him, but the numbers took them by surprise. To see that even 21% of Black people support Trump is alarming, especially considering his take on black people.

1 out of 5 is significant. I suspect some of them view it as a protest vote. A way to get back at the system rather then purely agreeing with the ideas. However, religion and anti gay sentiment is probably the bulk of these folks. Maybe the conspiracy aspects are appealing? Seems odd no matter what.
