In the past month the number of black voters for Donald Trump has increased significantly.

At the beginning of October 9% of African Americans supported Trump.

This ought to keep Democrats up late at night.

Blacks today make up 22% of the Democratic vote.

If Democrats lost 25% of the black vote they would lose Virginia, Florida, Ohio and North Carolina.


(Washington Post)

If Trump skims 25% of black voters from the Democratic Party he would win the 2016 election in a landslide.

The last Republican to win over 25 percent of the non-white vote was Richard Nixon in 1960.
Nixon won 32% of non-white voters to Kennedy’s 68%.

The black community in America has been in decline ever since.

This is nonsense.  Trumpway Pundit is quoting discredited numbers.

There is NO EVIDENCE in any reputable poll that Trump is garnering more than 8% of the black vote.

If you could understand math, you would see that he is not on track. His numbers are DECREASING, which means GOING DOWN, since the October 13th outlier. He is 10 points away from this 25% number Hoft is touting he needs.

VAN JONES ADMITS DEMS NEED MINORITIES TO REMAIN POOR AND RESENTFUL

CNN contributor Van Jones has taken to Facebook with a video in which he warns that Trump is likely to win the election because of his mastery of the new social media landscape of today. This might be true, but his electoral math is more interesting:

“70 percent of African Americans have a horrible view of Donald Trump,” Jones continued. “In order for the Democrats to win the White House they don’t have to get 50 percent of the black vote or 60, or 70, or 80, or 90, Democrats in order to win historically need 90 to 92 percent of the black vote. If only 70 percent don’t like Donald Trump, that means 30 percent are open to his argument. If he gets half of those, he’s president.”

I'd be kind of surprised if Trump even got 5%
