By Frances Rice


The National Black Republican Association's endorsement of Donald Trump for President of the United States has been very well received by other Republican black leaders across the country. The response has been overwhelming, with other leaders contacting us to add their support of the NBRA's endorsement of Mr. Trump. Highlighted below are the leaders who gave us their permission to release their names to the public. Our subsequent press releases during the general election will include the names of other leaders who endorse Mr. Trump when he has become our party’s presidential nominee, which we expect will be the decision of the majority of Republican Party primary voters.  In our view, Mr. Trump’s nomination will be well-deserved, since we believe he is the only candidate who can both unify our party and attract new, independent and conservative black voters.
 
Bill Calhoun 

As Chairman of the Texas Federation for Republican Outreach (TFRO), Bill Calhoun has this to say regarding his endorsement of Donald Trump: "Our members are dedicated to identifying and engaging independent, black voters with two issues that hit closest to home: jobs and school choice.  Despite the fact that they overwhelmingly vote for Democrat candidates, the economic conditions for far too many African Americans is marginal. The Republican Party has a positive message and we have been  talking to voters about it.  We share information with them on two critical issues – how to increase their income in this new economy that the Democrats have created and the new strategies they must adopt to save and accumulate wealth to pass on to their families. It’s time for Republican candidates to help us by engaging black voters early in the primary season with an economic message that puts the blame for these conditions where it belongs, squarely in the hands of the Democrats and their public policy programs.  Donald Trump seems to be the only candidate for President willing to do this.”

C. Mason Weaver
 
Mason Weaver’s impressive biography shows that he is changing the way people think about how they do business; how they interact with their families, friends and the world. He has been training, educating, teaching and reaching thousands with his messages of hope for the future and empowering individuals with the tools they need to become the driving forces for positive change.  Mr. Weaver stated that his YouTube endorsement of Donald Trump is based on Mr. Trump’s business success and his focus on “making America great again.”  In a YouTube video, Mr. Weaver explains the Trump phenomenon: “no matter who he attacks or who attacks him, his polling numbers claim higher.”


Dr. Deborah Honeycutt
 
Deborah Travis Honeycutt is a Conservative Political Activist, Public Speaker and family medicine physician. In 2004 Dr. Honeycutt was President of the Georgia Academy of Family Physicians and in 2005 served as Chairman of the Board of Directors. On the national level she has served on many committees as well as a five-year appointment to the American Academy of Family Physicians’ Commission on Education. She was twice the Minority Constituency Delegate and twice the Georgia State Delegate to the American Academy of Family Physicians. While providing her endorsement of Donald Trump as our next president, Dr. Honeycutt stated: “Mr. Trump is the only candidate strong enough to withstand the media backlash when he begins to repeal Obamacare and unravel what the Democrats have done to put our national security and economy in jeopardy.”

Trump is down to a 3% and 9% lead in the polls.  I don't think he is picking up.  Real Clear Politics.

Polls are only as accurate as the pollsters  and those being polled are honest. I put little trust in poll results.

TRUMP could pull 25 % of the black vote and 80 % of the working black vote IMO. The one voting bloc of people that OBAMA hurt the most is the Black American. They want jobs and a better life and he really screwed them big time. They know TRUMP will create jobs and that is ll that 25% want is an opportunity and they will take it from there. JMO. :patriot:

The protest in Chicago may be a better barometer as to how Trump support is among black voters rather than the polls. Secondly, how do "they" or for that matter, you, know he will create jobs??

LOL!!! Trump has THREE PERCENT support among blacks and 15% among Hispanics. That's according to reputable pollsters.

Trump is going to lose because  28% of the voters are minorities and they're going to hand his head to him if he's the nominee.

True enough.  But then again, pointing out the errors of the Trumpoids is never a waste of typing skill.

Anecdote. Just like the silly FB postings were supposed to be indicative of some massive movement against Trump, a blog post from a black REPUBLICAN site is supposed to indicate some kind of surge of blacks toward Trump.

It's just wishful thinking.

Missleading Headline.

What the story is about is endorsements from inside National Black Republican Association, which until this thread, I didn't know existed.  Polls among blacks nationally, are still not good, and will probably sink even further now that BLM has picked their fight against him.

Collected Trump Quotes on Blacks:

“Black guys counting my money! I hate it. The only kind of people I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes every day.”

“Laziness is a trait in blacks.”

...and of course in 2015, Trump now proclaims:

“And, you know, I have a great relationship with African Americans, as you possibly have heard. I just have great respect for them and you know they like me.”

Trump has flip-flopped on just about every issue I can think of.  The dude is a fraud!

Not to mention the robocalls for his campaign run by white supremacists, the white supremacists openly participating in his rallies, the KKK endorsements, and how many times blacks have been violently treated at his events.

Couple with the latest event in which footage shows an 'old white guy' sucker punching a black person... and the black person is the one thrown to the floor, handcuffed, and ran out of the rally by the police.  That, BTW, was a big reason behind the numbers of protestors in Chicago.

Trump Support Growing Among Black Voters

Blacks in general vote for democrats. Trump is a Democrat and hence get's black votes. Nothing complicated about that!

The primary glue bonding the Black vote to the Democrat party is WELFARE and PUBLIC BENEFITS (e.g., socialism).

Is it fair to generalize this, inferring that Blacks cannot (eventually) become self-sufficient and therefore learn to rely on themselves instead of the government teat?

Probably.

Blacks have suffered more than any other demographic by the influx of tens of millions of illegal aliens from Mexico underbidding and cutting into the job markets traditionally held by Blacks.  And both the Democrats and the Republicans ferociously defend this transformation by not enforcing existing immigration laws, as is attested to the transformation of many large US cities into sanctuary cities.

Will Blacks ever wake up, and if so, who will help them?

The Democrats will continue to provide welfare both to the Black population and now, the ever-increasing Mexican population fueled by unfettered illegal immigration.

This is social engineering of historical proportion.  Its not working in Europe.  At the current rate of immigration from Muslim countries, Europe will be a Muslim majority within twenty years, and the United States will be a Latino majority within twenty years.

That 3% and 15% is more than the 0.5% of what Cruz or Rubio would get.

I wonder why black GOP leaders in Texas are supporting Trump?
