This is pretty true. It's been funny watching the democrats try to shame black men and white women to "be more like black women"...

He does not need to hit "bush like numbers" to make a big difference. If he doubles his performance with Black males, and increases a bit in hispanic males then he is very likely to win a second term.

Why would black women not be inclined to support President Trump?

They hold further to the left than African American men, they bought into the "trump is hitler *AND* he hates wymyn" narrative.

He needs to have a black female in his Cabinet or inner group. He has a few black men in his Cabinet but no more women after Omarosa was forced out/left on her own regard.

That would explain why a majority of women wouldn't vote for him. But what has he done that would disqualify him with black women.

What is he proposing that makes him less viable, than, say, Bill Clinton? Their immigration policies are exactly the same. Trump is less inclined to cuts in social security, medicare, medicaid, etc, than Clinton was. And let's not pretend that Clinton was somehow morally superior to Trump.

What is it that black women find unsupportable?

Nothing, he has done nothing that would disqualify him if you look at his actions and policies. But they vote as a black more than any other group and they feel doubly oppressed by him cause $REASONS.

He needs the most qualified and loyal people around him, regardless of race, creed, color, or gender.

And he still beat your candidate...

I think history has shown that blacks will never come out in droves for the republican party, it's just a reality. If I'm the republicans I'm going after the legal hispanic vote. They are socially conservative and more align with the republicans on most measures. This is also a growing voting block.

Why do they segregate the blacks at the SOTU? Seems racist to me.

I think the question should be...Why do the blacks segregate themselves at the SOTU? Seems racist to me.

I think a couple of them on the far left of the pic are asleep.
Nice way to represent your constituents.
