I live around mostly black people and I don't think most of them agree with Antifa/BLM. They're cowed into being silent because they don't think anyone represents them. Most black people simply don't vote. Most black voters probably are how you describe, but I believe most black Americans are not. The silent majority is real, and it crosses racial lines; America is not as divided as the race baiters want us to believe, and that is why Trump is so confident.

They're [the black people] cowed into being silent...

Really? They're too scared to speak up?? Shit, if blacks are too scared to speak up for themselves when literally EVERYONE else is demonized and has their entire life destroyed for speaking out about BLM, then this is a shitty situation isn't it?!

I doubt their cowed... more likely, they silently agree with, and support BLM. After all, they're benefiting.

Yeah, imagine a black person who speaks against BLM. Don't even have to imagine, they're all over Right-wing Twitter if you look for them. And they get death threats.

Obviously BLM isn't cowed into silence, they get millions of dollars to spread their narrative. I'm saying most black people aren't BLM. I mean, most people in general don't follow politics much at all. You can doubt if you want, it's just my opinion based on personal anecdotes.

And I'm not saying a certain percentage of blacks will vote Trump or anything. I just think they would be easier to flip than some people.

I don't doubt it's a large percentage, but the majority? eh.

Of course it's more important to flip the majority of liberals, but I don't know that pandering is ever a good way to do that.
