I think I have to address the people who keep saying it's a fool's errand to try and win the black community. I think they're wrong. The black community had been voting Republican for decades ever since getting our freedom. Us voting Democrat is as recent an occurrence as the Vietnam War. I think it's the same issue as dealing with the swamp: It's something that takes time. The left are super intrenched in black communities, as the swamp are in their posts. To think it will take one election to win them over is a fool's errand, as it is to think you can win over the white liberal in New York/California in one/two elections. It takes hard work. It just depends on if you think it's worth it.
I'm personally excited to see what Trump can do to get this generation of black Americans to see that the bullshit we've been taught about Republicans is all propaganda with no basis in reality. If he doesn't make as much head way as I would want him to, I'd be fine with that. It's all a process. I'm glad it's Trump in charge because I'm pretty sure I'd fuck things up and make it worse. Keep that in mind: Whatever suggestion you have that you think would help Trump probably would make things 10X worse, because he has information we don't.
