White women and men have all voted republican, even in 2020 for the orange ogre so there should be no blaming of Black men if trump wins the election.

I don't think he will, but just to be clear...

As a white male Union voter. Since 1984. No need to give me feedback but we are out there and just as pissed as you. I hate that lying orange phony bastard and all he represents. I hated ronnie rayguns too. I watched him help Wall Street steal worker's pensions.

MANY black men are among the most dedicated block of voters and most black male voters vote for the candidate that best represents their interest. When you hear the media talking about black men "preferring trump," that's only SOME black men. It's a proportion of black men. And yes, that is concerning, but it should not be accepted that black men in total are voting for the racist or rapist, or both.

I've seen people question why a black person would vote for trump. My question is why would a WHITE person vote for trump. The root cause of that human anomaly is the same for someone of any color - small brain.
