Why Black Voters Are Turning to Trump
American Greatness, Sep 14, 2018, Karin McQuillan

I have been listening for hours to ordinary black Americans on the #Walkaway movement’s YouTube channel. This is a movement of former Democrats explaining why they are leaving their party. While each face, voice, and story is unique and fascinating, there are some striking recurring themes

[...]

In the short term, hyping fake white racism and police brutality worked to stanch the bleeding in black turnout in the 2012 election. In the long term, however, Obama’s reliance on racial fear and grievance increased black suffering. He broke people’s hearts and blew up many black voters’ loyalty to the Democrats.

The #Walkaway videos are remarkably consistent on that score. Obama got them paying attention to party politics for the first time. Next came the emotional roller coaster, as joy turned to disappointment. Obama’s identity politics agenda, now amplified by progressive Democrats, was a cynical ploy and it has become is a total turn off to those now paying attention. These black voters hate illegal immigration. Obama marked the end of their romance with the Democrat Party, not a new beginning.

Few of these ex-Democrats voted for Trump, but they were willing to give Trump a chance after the election. They find Trump Derangement Syndrome ludicrous. In fact, they love what he is doing. They appreciate the jobs he is creating, and they share his patriotism.  ...

A last, and very interesting theme, is after Obama got them engaged, most of these black Democrats started doing research on the internet. They were riveted learning the history of the Democratic Party. They care deeply and viscerally about slavery. What a shock to discover they had been lied to about it all their lives.

This essay is about more than President Trump ... it is about a political sea change within the Black community that's been looking to break free.

Obama started this change and Trump is pulling them across the finish line.  More evidence, IMO, Donald Trump is the right man at the right time.

Great to see this trend.   There's little question that the most direct victims of illegal immigration are Black Americans willing to work.  Their opportunities and wages have been driven down. 

Same goes with crappy public schools and the Dems fighting to keep choices denied.  Black Americans have been sated far too long by the Dem sugar rush of grievance politics.   

More and more, it appears, can see the con.

It's crackers to slip a rozzer the dropsy in snide

If this is correct,  the democrat party is going to be a footnote in history books sooner than I imagined.

Never, never, underestimate the GOP's ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

If these were the opinions of a small group of mavericks, it would be interesting. If the poll numbers of  black voters liking Trump are accurate at only 11 or 14 percent, it will seriously impact the swing states, lowering Democrats chances in 2020. If the numbers actually are 21 or 38 percent, America will never be the same. Democrats tell themselves that black voters turning to Trump is not real and it will go away. It is not going away.

Obama did far worse than just let blacks, and everyone else, down.

He used us all like a 12 pack of Charmin.

I have viewed many of the youtube #walkaway vids.

They seem individually sincere, personally prepared; not like something fake or contrived.

How large the impact is/will turn out to be, is hard to estimate.

Any loss from black and Hispanic voters for the dems, is very, very significant.

@truth_seeker  I've read that if the Republicans can peel away 10-20% if the black vote, the Dems are in real trouble.  I don't believe it because they have been encouraging mass illegal migration of Hispanics and breaking down attempts to control voting.  They imported a new constituency of illegal aliens.
