Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

Donald Trump Doesn’t Care About ~~Black~~ People

[–] [email protected] 52 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Woah, someone needs to tell Kanye

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 months ago

Trump's no better than George Bush!

[–] gravitas_deficiency 7 points 3 months ago

But ye likes his “dragon energy”, whatever the ketamine-fueled fuck that is

[–] [email protected] 32 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yes he does, he really really cares, so much that he made most of his campaign and policy to disenfranchise black people and to counter any programs and progress that helped black people, he cares a lot

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 months ago

He cares more than anyone who's ever cared! You've never seen a man care like this before! Tremendous!

Donald Trump doesn't care about any people other than himself. But he actively hates black people more than others.

Ya don't fuckin say

[–] heavy 10 points 3 months ago

Some of my favorite hits include: "immigrants are coming to steal black jobs." Also don't forget apparently he knows what it's like to be black since he's committed crimes and has gone through the "justice" system, since that's what black folks do.

Donald Trump doesn't care about ~~black~~ people.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

They have many more headlines: Trump doesn't care about:

  • ~~Black People~~
  • Latinos
  • Asians
  • Women
  • Workers
  • Gays
  • ...

I'd say he cares about Ivanka, but I think we all know that's just lust.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago

Excuse me, I have seen photo evidence that he does. Fun fact: he also has different numbers of fingers depending on the event, really cool, I didn't know it was possible.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Seriously, he has a not-insignificant base of support with young black men.

The why and how aren’t as interesting though.

Younger Black voters are more likely than older Black voters to say they would vote for Trump. While about two-thirds of Black voters under 50 favor Biden (68%), 29% support Trump. Black voters 50 and older favor Biden by a wider margin (84% vs. 9%).

  • that was from May 2024
  • who the f—- says 49 is “younger”?
[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

In terms of voting population? I imagine 50 is the split point.

[–] ironhydroxide 6 points 3 months ago

And water is wet.

I believe it's common knowledge that Donald trump doesn't care about anyone but himself.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

He doesn't even care about his children. I assumed he didn't give a fuck about anyone else but himself.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

Well of course, no black person is Donald trump so nobody Donald trump cares about is a black person.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Yeah, usually white supremacists and fascists are not fond of other races.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

How is this news? He doesn't know black people exist until he's forced to at a rally. It's not even about black people... He doesn't know anyone else exists...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Donald Trump doesn't hate black people. He hates anyone that doesn't give him money or power. Black people just happen to overlap greatly in that venn diagram because we've been kicking Black people in the teeth for decades in America. Treating them like second class citizens with voter suppression, gerrymandering, red lining, racist cops, etc. has taken much of their power away.
