Only 1 Percent Of Black Voters Support Donald Trump

It is hard to argue that the media( I already sound nuts lol) isnt extremely biased against Trump. I just find it strange how much shit they keep throwing at Trump and yet damn near everyone I know is voting for him. Some of my black friends included.
Im not too keen on the polls either way they swing, its gunna be close either way.
[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;50843970]McCain got 4% of the African American vote in 2008
Romney got 6% in 2012
Anyone saying this number is just part of the media's anti-Trump campaign is also saying "I know literally nothing about American politics"[/QUOTE]
The African-American vote seems to be a lost cause for Republicans, and also, unlike Hispanics, not particularly important as they are usually so clustered in safe states.
Yeah, every poll is biased and rigged by Hillary "The Illuminati" Clinton.
No, of course not. I'm just surprised Trump's even got this far, considering what y'all think of him, what all the polls say, considering the attitudes against the presidential candidate, I'm gonna be really impressed if Trump wins.
Its crazy how hard the attack campaign on trump is, It baffles me the stupidity that people think by being negative like trump they will beat him, Use intelligence you mess.

it's not going to be close, it's going to be a landslide. the fact that trump was only ever more popular than hillary during the RNC should be incredibly telling to the result of the election.

Yeah exactly, I find the media to be biased against Trump as well, and I didn't even use the word 'extremely biased' like you did. I just found some reporting to be 'slightly biased' against Trump, or so I feel.
But of course, when it's some random Finnish asshole suggesting something like that, instead of an American like you, people are gonna quote you to hell and back, saying "You don't understand shit. All's done and reported in completely, and totally 100% unbiased way." Yeah my shit-stained insides.

Prove that the polls are biased against Trump and have been manipulated in some way to lessen Trump's support. Otherwise, you're talking out of your ass and you're basically saying the polls are biased because they show that Trump is losing.
And if the media is so biased against Trump, clearly you haven't seen the articles that Breitbart put out. Then again, classifying them as 'journalism' is an insult to journalists and news people everywhere.

People [I]are[/I] using their intelligence by pointing out the negatives of Trump. It's not our fault that his supporters are all lobotomised fools who'll ignore it in favour of shouting "MAGA!!!!" or screeching "BUT SHILLARY!!!" in response to any critique of the man.
[QUOTE=Bat-shit;50843915]Yeah he's made some pretty crazy statements and promises, and if he wins against these odds that people like to put him up against, like with all the negative polling, then color me impressed. How's he even standing where he is standing now?
Anyway, it'd be nice if the way polls are represented to the public were more impartial and neutral, or so. Telling it how it is.
I'm sure actual newspapers and stations use similar headlines like this thread, and at least to me the initial reaction is "Why even vote if he has such a low support?" but of course it's a sample of 800 people. So, sort of biased reporting I think, but.. whatever.[/QUOTE]

Yeah okay, you're right. They appear to be following the trends quite accurately.
Now that you mention it, my support for Trump has also been going down.. from ever since the beginning in fact. Each time he says something stupid or something that doesn't sit right with me I take a deep sigh, and hope it's just for show and that he's not gonna keep the particularly dumb or insane promise. I still see potential in the man, he would most definitely like to shake things up a bit, whereas Clinton would probably just sit quietly on the desk and get to work on whatever promises she's made, I don't even know.

Well, I can only hope you continue that trend. You don't have to vote for Hillary, but putting Trump in the White House would be a monumental mistake.
if anyone in this thread believes that trump has a chance at winning, check the polls of romney vs obama and compare it to clinton vs trump. trump is currently further behind than romney [i]ever[/i] was (even in the early stages of his presidential campaign). obama was only a meagre 3 pc ahead of romney this time 4 years ago, and in november romney managed to close that lead by 2 pc to 1.
if trump can muster up romney's professionalism and climb as much as he did - 2 pc - that leaves him dead in the water with a clinton landslide. clinton might even win georgia. how can anyone still have faith in that big orange failure?

If somebody's silly enough to fall for demagoguery 101, or is anti-establishment enough to want to vote him in regardless of the consequences, people are going to still support him until it's absolutely clear (when the actual vote happens) that he will not become President of the USA.

Trump's support base epitomizes "feels before reals" so none of this is relevant, he is still going to beat crooked Hillary in November.
There is also faith being placed in the debates but Trump supporters don't understand that general election debates aren't the same as Republican ones and while Trump has a lot of personal attacks to use against Clinton, it's not like her campaign is sitting around twiddling their thumbs. The fact that Trump is trying to back out of debates and already calls the election "rigged" tells me there is at least a little bit of panic in his campaign.

The media literally does not need to be biased at all to paint Trump negatively, considering that everything that comes out of his mouth already does that perfectly well.
[QUOTE=Sobotnik;50843208]It's probably 1% because Trump is a racist lol[/QUOTE]
RIPBILLYMAYS is gonna come in and say "no actually its only because blacks are uneducated/hillary married a black man/democrat history"
[QUOTE=Bleach Qeef;50843943]They pretty much are though.[/QUOTE]
And? There are polls like this for both candidates, and every candidate before them ever since television news networks started being plagued by poltical bias and agenda.
[QUOTE=gk99;50842849]Oh gee I wonder why

[QUOTE=Ridge;50845473]Okay, but what exactly has he said to offend black people?[/QUOTE]
well he thinks obama was born in kenya, which by itself is extremely insulting and racist
he helped spearhead the entire birther movement
he refers to black people as "the blacks" using the definite article

How is that racist? Obama's father was Kenyan. Obama's brother is Kenyan.
[QUOTE=Ridge;50845531]How is that racist? Obama's father was Kenyan. Obama's brother is Kenyan.[/QUOTE]
What Trump is saying is that Obama isn't an American citizen, even though Obama was born in Hawaii.
He's saying that he's a foreigner and not actually from the United States, which is bullshit peddled by the Tea Party primarily because Obama is black.

except obama is an american citizen and was born in america
[QUOTE=Ridge;50845473]Okay, but what exactly has he said to offend black people?[/QUOTE]
Not that much, admittedly, but he hasn't said anything that's likely to appeal to them, either. And considering that the overwhelming majority were against him from the start, it's likely that he's not even trying.

Is this a fucking joke? The birther movement is entirely rooted in racism.

BLM is a terrorist group. They shut down roadways and harass people to elicit political change.

Because someone doesn't like Obama doesn't automatically mean they're racist, I'm sorry to cloud your overly simplistic understanding of society.

He's talking about birther movement, NOT about people in general who dislike Obama.
Good thing ridge is back this subforum was rapidly running out of embarrassing trump supporters.
