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.

polls also tend to have confirmation bias baked into them- that might not be 21% of everyone, but it's 21% of people who care enough about politics to answer a poll like that (I would hope. I have to hope, right?)

I have the same hopes, tbh. I mean, I never answer the robocalls or polls, so I know that there are at least some people who self-select out of representation in polls in the same fashion.
