Folks, when we blacks tell you how blacks see things, learn to listen.
8 In 10 Black Americans View Trump As ‘A Racist,’ Poll Finds
Lisette Voytko
Topline: A Washington Post/Ipsos poll found that more than eight in ten black Americans view President Trump as “a racist,” with nine in ten respondents disapproving of his job performance—and with the election still ten months away, former vice president Joe Biden is (so far) black Democrats’ candidate of choice.
- The poll was conducted January 2 to January 8, and painted a largely pessimistic outlook by black Americans, 65% of whom said it was a bad time to be black in America.
- Despite Trump touting his presidency as being good for black Americans, 77% of respondents said the president should get “only some” or “hardly any” credit for the 5.5% unemployment rate among their community..
- While the black unemployment rate is at its lowest point in years, it stood at 16.8% in 2010, during Barack Obama’s first term as president, and was at 7.5% when he left office.
- In terms of their personal financial situations, 54% report no change during Trump’s presidency, even though the stock market has reached record highs.
- Black Americans who believe Trump to be racist also tend to believe he’s made racism worse in the country and that white Americans do not understand the discrimination they experience.
- The poll did find, however, that 65% of respondents feel optimistic about their own lives, a belief that crosses political divides and age groups.

Got a feeling he's actually not deep enough racist for them to turn out and vote for a marginal Socialist with no Administrative experience who wants to make a "tear down" of the US economy and have folks like AOC making life decisions for everyone...
Being called a racist has so little meaning anymore.. But folks FIXATED on taking away your economic choices or jobs kinda matters more...
Joe Biden thinks EVEN you can be "a coder" after reading your post here at USMB.. You think HE'S gonna get black people to the polls... It's the comparison that matters..
So the only polls that matter would ask people CHOOSE between the 2 evils... Which is all Americans get anymore from the 2 inept sorry ass parties...
