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.

I guess I’m just desensitized to it now. (Which is probably not good 🤷🏾‍♂️) Especially after seeing how many back folks were in attendance at the RNC this year cheering on Hulk Hogan and Amber Rose. To me personally that was more alarming as it put faces to a portion of that 21%.

I think some people enjoy being contrarian. A politician should absolutely work to earn your vote, but not voting Democrat just because you feel like it’s “expected” of you doesn’t seem like a good enough reason, at least to me.
