I don't believe it.

I do.  In fact, I think it is higher than that.  You would be surprised at the amount of respect Trump garners in the hoods of our major cities.  But then it's not who votes that counts, but rather who counts the votes.  Georgia 2020 and 2022 are prime examples of that.

For example, 87 black voters went for Biden in the 2020 election, and Trump only earned 12 percent support.

It has long been established that any Democrat candidate not receiving over 90% of the black vote will lose.  So to say that Trump "only" earned 12 percent is disingenuous.  Hillary Clinton received 88% of the black vote in 2016 (to Trump's 8%).  She lost.  So if Trump receives 12% of the black vote, he is virtually guaranteed a victory.  Except for one thing.  Blacks showing up to vote is not the same thing as black votes being counted.  After 2016, Democrats has lost trust in black turnout.  So in 2020, they simply rigged the system to guarantee 100% black voter turnout by creating completed ballots for black voters regardless of whether they actually voted.  In the 2020 Democrat primary, we saw black turnout increase dramatically.  In Georgia, over 50% of Democrat primary ballots came from black voters, far surpassing either Obama election.  Does anyone here believe that really happened?  Or did the Dems simply figure out a way to create ballots for all their registered voters and submit those ballots without signature or chain of custody?

How dare she not grovel to the media arm of the Democrat Party!  How dare she not back down and emasculate herself to the beckon call of the MSM.

To hell with "Face the Nation".  Let me know the next time they bring Barack Obama on for an inquisition on eating dogs.  Like that will ever happen.  These people deserve tone-deafness to their emotional manipulations.

No, sorry, your take on this is wrong.  Go and listen to her interview, she gives tone-deaf talking-point answers, clearly generated by consultants, that failed to address the questions, over and over.  Just totally wooden responses that showed she had no clue what mess she was in, or how to get out of it. And not just about the dog, there was also a question about her meeting with Little Kim that she talked about in the book, which never happened, which she didn't have a good answer for. It wasn't about standing tough in the face of criticism, her responses were canned non-responses that just looked bad.

I'll add that science was something that was generally trusted as being done in good faith. So it was the perfect vehicle to be exploited by government to manipulate people.
