What a moronic way for Trump to solicit support from blacks.....
Blacks MUST always remember not to trust this orange moron who actually FUNDED the birther movement insinuating that a half-black man could NOT legitimately be sitting in the oval office.
...and blacks MUST always remember that Trump called for the reinstatement of the death penalty in New York following a horrific rape case in which five black teenagers were wrongly convicted.
So, my fellow citizen who are black......would you "gamble" that Trump is your would-be "savior"???
Democrats haven't helped blacks, look at Detroit, Baltimore and Chicago, just three cities, we all could name dozens more.
What is to lose? Hillary is strictly for the 1%, she is going to offer crumbs.

I guess you missed the post about Atlanta .. and how about you explaining exactly what republicans have done to help urban cities .. particularly affected by loss of the auto industry and Reagan's abandonment of American cities.
How about you tell me what republicans have done, not what democrats haven't done .. particularly in light of the fact that republicans didn't do shit for Black people even when the majority of us was voting for them.
The Republican Party is the original and true Civil Rights Party. Just do some basic research and you'll find out what Republicans have done for African Americans.
The Democrats were still running around in their sheets lynching black folks when Republicans were fighting for African American Civil Rights. Democrats are just failed Johnny-Come-Latelys.
I'm more familiar with that ancient history than you are. That has absolutely nothing to do with what the Republican Party has become .. has nothing to do with what republicans have or have not done for black people today .. did or did not do for black people when we were voting for them.
Civil rights for African-Americans did not come until we started voting for democrats.
Your turn ..
Well for the record, black people started leaving the GOP after the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927
Great Mississippi Flood of 1927 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
More than 200,000 African Americans were displaced from their homes along the
Lower Mississippi River and had to live for lengthy periods in relief camps. As a result of this disruption, many joined the
Great Migration from the South to northern and midwestern industrial cities rather than return to rural agricultural labor. This massive population movement increased from
World War II until 1970.
In addition these refugees being ill-supplied, many African-American men were impressed into service as relief workers to unload supply ships sent by the Red Cross, and were never paid.
Hoover was much lauded initially for his masterful handling of the refugee camps. Later reports about the poor treatment of blacks in those camps led him to make promises to the African-American community which he broke. As a result, he lost the black vote in the North in his re-election campaign in 1932. (Note: In the South, African Americans were still overwhelmingly
disenfranchised by state constitutions and practices, as they remained until after passage of the
Voting Rights Act of 1965.)
Several reports on the terrible situation in the refugee camps were kept out of the media at Hoover's request, with the pledge of further reforms for blacks after the presidential election on 1928. His failure to deliver followed other disappointments by the Republican Party; African Americans began to encourage other black Americans to align instead with the national Democrats.
And the GOP hasn't won the black vote back since. So Republicans, this is a history lesson for you stupid idiots. Blacks don't blindly vote for the Democrats. They once voted for you. And you lost their vote. Now good luck winning it back with the bullshit message you are pushing. So obviously entitled bigots and idiots.
