Trump needs to capitalize on this and invite Ice Cube to a public forum (vitrual if need be) to discuss their viewpoints. This shows Trump is open to discussion. If he can convince just 1 voter to switch sides, especially in CA, it is worth it.

There’s good evidence this has already occurred, just not publicly. Ice tweeted yesterday that when he contacted Dems about his ideas they gave him the cold shoulder, whereas Republicans actually sat down and listened.

I read that piece, and what really struck me was he said while the R's made time and sat down with him, and came up with ideas for things they could do right now, the dems only wanted to make promises of what they might do in the future - so, like they've done for the past 60 years, the dems will promise anything, and do nothing once they don't need your vote. If Biden intended to do anything to improve the fortunes of black Americans, what stopped him from doing it at any point in the past 47 years?

I dont really like this endless pandering to 13% of the population who commit 56% of the murders. If they cant see all the social spending and second chances theyre given, and republicans suddenly champion letting criminals out of jail and more affirmative action, then we are the new cucked liberals. Theyre 55% of all onscreen talent now, and even higher percent of celebrities. All of this is propped up by affirmative action and this woke obsession with POCs. I dont care what some entertaining celebrity thinks just because hes black. The correct response to an uneducated black liberal celebrity is “shut the fuck up, youve been given enough, now show some responsibility for your behavior” not “we care more about your people than them, here’s more special laws because you cant follow them.” They really dont deserve this much attention and influence. We’re just rewarding the loudest complainers who continually have the worst behavior.

While there is plenty of blame to go around, it remains that many huge areas of America are absolute shit for black people to grow up in. Handouts and affirmative action type rules aren't the answer. But if Trump can overcome Democrat indifference and bring some manufacturing back and gainfully employ a few more of them, that is good news for everyone.

Do you yell at the blind for bumbling into you nonstop or do you guide them and open their eyes, as your username suggests?

Do you expect a child to behave like an adult when his adult has abused him for years? No, you must make an example out of the irresponsible adult first for the child to learn. That's why the CIA must be destroyed for their crime against America and Black Americans.

The Blacks had their own conservative culture all the way to the 80s until the CIA flooded American soil and cities with hard drugs and destroyed a part of American culture. They are treasonous enemies that must be destroyed.

The funny thing about the 13% of the population, 5X% of all homicides thing that people dont like to talk about is how, much like the US gun crime statistics, they are massively overflated by a single digit number of cities. Take out Baltimore, Chicago, New York City and how many % of all homicides do that 13% of the population make up then?

Of course, if we were to do that, we wouldn't be able to blame all black people for Democrats encouraging and fostering gang crimes.

It's weird, the "genetically violent" black people seemed to be just fine under Rudy Giuliani's New York City, and Rudy didn't need to arrest the entire Black population of New York City to get things under wraps. It's probably because it's not the entire 13% that's doing the crimes, but a subset of the 13% who are doing the same crimes over and over again and getting away with it.

DonJr2024 is right, but I just want to add.

The 13% who commit 56% of crime is a humongous problem, and we should try to fix that. I know statistically the average IQ of black America is behind that of other racial groups but if you do the math, it does NOT add up that this difference in IQ can explain the VAST disparity in likeliness to commit crime. There are other factors: shitty cities, shitty education, shitty peers, shitty jobs, shitty culture. We need to fix this problem.

And you might say “what about the many problems all Americans face, those not black? There are white people in this country who also have very tough lives.” which is a very valid point and I would totally agree.

But, realize the following:

  1. A lot of federal money has been and is being thrown at this problem, just that it ends up in the hands of corrupt local officials and people in the federal government who claim to represent these cities, when in reality they live far away from the problems and give no shits about fixing anything. We already spend a lot of money, we might as well spend this money right and get the job done well so we can cut off these leeches for the rest of time.
  2. Black people are stuck in a cycle of crime culture and victim hood because they see nothing changing and they are surrounded by bad influences. You can’t really blame any single individual among the blacks for this cultural problem, just think about the cultural problems of social degeneracy we face in western society today. If we can start moving in the other direction now, it could mean we can finally stop hearing this garbage about “muh reparations n sheet”

I think he said Trump not Republicans.

He said both parties contacted him, and then that the Trump campaign made revisions to the existing plan based on their conversations.

I think we’re both right. :)

that thread is amazing

Huwhite people, who have never met Trump, telling Cube, who has (and no doubt talked to lots of people before doing this), that Trump is a huwhite supreme.

My favorite though, is the people busting out Malcolm X saying "singers are not leaders" and clipping it at "the liberals are their puppet masters"

I spent about 20 seconds looking at twitter responses to this post and I have a hard time real people could be as dumb as those replies appear to suggest.

He doesn't have to flip a state, but even 1 district is big
