If he's still in office by the summertime, I'll be surprised. I still think this is a set up for Vance.
What happens now that a convicted felon has won the presidency? What does the GOP look like going forward?
- Thread starter geechiedan
- Start date
Yeah you did...let's just if that lesson includes project 2025
here's the thing tho...you gotta vote to put them back in office in order to come thru on those demands....so please explain how that works??
You must have been perusing threads from 2020 related to Biden/Harris
You must have been perusing threads from 2020 related to Biden/Harris
Nope, you chumps for trump 2024
did he change the constitution last time? we have no leverage now
you'll be back in 4 years to get tricked again.White women to their Black "allies":
No, you'll be back to be pimped by Tariq. I won't be here.
dont follow him but you'll vote again after a few sermon speeches of hope, a twerking rapper endorsement, and shaming if you dont
Argue with yourself.
he didnt have both houses and scotus last time...but he does now..
I don't want a handout, I want to know what the plan is in detail. Vague shit pisses me off, primarily because it means the person being vague is full of shit...with all due respect. I tend to get a lot of angry responses when I want someone to explain something in detail, so please excuse my language.
The Dems lost in part as flex from some black voters...how do they prove they got the point if they don't get back in office?
Naw..homie..they got on Kamala for being vague... now they're dropping vague shit ..call it out when you see it
This is the short list.

24 things Donald Trump is promising to do
Aug 7, 2024 10:40 AM EST
1. On Day 1, “we will begin the largest deportation operation in American history.”
Context: Trump is pledging to deploy a “massive dragnet” to arrest and deport millions of undocumented migrants. He has told crowds, and Time magazine in April, that he would use local law enforcement to do this as well as, potentially, the National Guard and active duty military. He has not offered more specifics about how any of those mechanisms would work. He has indicated in his speeches that he would first target “criminals,” mentioning violent crimes like murder and rape.
8. “I will pass the Trump Reciprocal Trade Act, that means that if China or any other country makes us pay a 100 or 200 percent tariff or tax, we will make them pay a reciprocal tariff or tax of 100 or 200 percent immediately, right back.”
Context: Trump argues that this will protect American jobs, especially in manufacturing and other competitive industries. But others, including the libertarian-leaning Cato Institute, say it would end up being an economic mistake, raising prices for American consumers
16. “We are going to rebuild our cities into beacons of hope, safety and beauty better than they’ve ever been before.”
Context: Trump regularly raises concerns about crime in America, especially in cities. Politifact checked these statements and found Trump’s words about rising crime rates to be “mostly false,” because violent crime rates have fallen for most of the country. Property crime has risen, including car thefts. (Gentrification on steroids. imho)
18. I will sign an executive order that cuts federal funding “for any school pushing critical race theory, transgender insanity and other inappropriate racial, sexual or political content onto the shoulders of our children.
Context: Trump has largely not defined precisely which policies he would attempt to penalize. At the same time, there is a legal battle over interpretations of Biden administration rules that declare Title IX protections based on sex include safeguards for LGBTQ+ youth

Harris appears to have won 80 percent of the Black vote, according to an exit poll by The Associated Press.
But that’s a drop of 10 percentage points compared with 2020 when the current president, Joe Biden, won nine of 10 Black votes.
The beneficiary? Trump, who won 20 percent of the Black vote this time, according to the exit poll. He had won 13 percent of the community’s vote in 2020 and 8 percent in 2016 — which in itself was the highest level of support by Black voters for any Republican since George W Bush in 2000.
Was the Black vote shift towards Trump unexpected?
Not really.A Gallup poll in 2023 showed the proportion of Black adults in the US who consider themselves Democrats had decreased from 77 percent in 2020 to 66 percent.
Why? Today’s Black voters operate a bit more independently from previous generations, especially young Black voters, analysts say.
Historically, the Democratic Party’s legacy with the civil rights movement is what kept it popular with Black voters. However, younger Black voters do not have those same civil rights legacy attachments.
“I think a certain generation of Black voters don’t have the direct experience with the civil rights movement or the knowledge of those things because to them that’s not memory – it’s history,” said Adolphus Belk, political scientist at Winthrop University in South Carolina. “They’re coming in without an understanding of these historical contours and turns, limitations, opportunities.
“And those frustrations are being made clear in this rising percentage of Black voters that’s taking a different look at the Republican Party in general and are exploring some curiosities with Trump despite his racial baggage.”
Furthermore, Black voters were seemingly frustrated that they are receiving little from the Democratic Party in return for what they feel is long-term, steadfast support, he said.
Why did Black voters shift towards Trump, and how did he woo them?
Trump almost doubles support among Black voters compared with 2020, exit polls say. How and where? We break it down.
Among other groups that had a real effect especially considering how close the race was...literally ever inch counted including the black vote.
People on the board are cheerleading that flip even as the increase was small BUT now trying to play it off... "oh the dems still got MOST of the black vote"
So you can't have it both ways.....either that increase for tump or decrease for harris meant something or it didnt...which is it???
There was no real Black shift; we have to blame the White women and the Latinos....and some of the Asians.Harris appears to have won 80 percent of the Black vote, according to an exit poll by The Associated Press.

u still miss the point. Trump ain't gonna do shit either. no one will. there is no handout. stop looking for someone to do for you. you looking at both white folks instead of hunting for food.
black people need leverage like other groups to get our way. until then, get fucked every election. until we build together, keep money in our community, and have real, credible leaders that don't want to integrate at every turn, this is what happens...stray dogs looking for scrap meat.

Are you talking about the overall votes?
I don't know how many times I can type the same thing. A politician shouldn't be promising to hurt the citizens of the country. You keep saying these weird analogies about dogs and white men, so I assume you're not understanding my request from you. Just saying "build a community" isn't a plan. How?
a politican shouldnt lie? no offense, but are you a child? that´s what they do!!! for centuries! they sell hope to get power. in the end, they only help the ones that grease the wheels.
second of all, i explained the small steps needed to have our own,building together, sharing ideas, investing in each other. damn,bro, do I have to do every little step for you? u are so used to being told what to do that you expect someone to have every answer. we start our own party, with things we want specifically for black people, investing in each other and form a coalition thats like a union
Form a coalition with who? Hispanics? They have their own agenda and it don't include ADOS....who else Jews? Think Jews are going sign off on a 20 trillion dollar reparations deal for ADOS?? How about Asians? Thinking they're going to cosign exclusive policy for ADOS??
Who's in the coalition?
coalition with each other not other groups.
bruh, you are not even trying to build from within. every turn, you are looking to poke holes(and failing) so you can beg for a handout, hope, and get nothing. lazy AF
Laziness has nothing to do with it. The black community is already doing much of what you're talking about. In fact the reason you're even able to talk the shit your talking id be cuz blacks came together to fight to make that happen.
What you're talking about is POLICY and POLICY involves POLITICIANS because POLICY runs through government whether it's local,state, or federal...and at all those levels you're going to need more than just the black vote.. but you know this because you're not that naive to believe that all it takes is the black vote to get shit done in America.
Tell us you're not that naive???
Ho
How do you propose we start this? How should we assembled like minded black folks? I'm not testing you or being a dickhead, but you've seemed to put some thought into this. First step is getting people together. Let's work on it.
Dude just on the topic of reparations alone many blacks don't agree..
Out of 100% black Americans... I'd say 20% are for reparations for all the fuckery ADOS endured up to today... And 20% don't want it because they see it as a handout and deny that all that fuckery effected them...
And between those two factions are the 60% who feel like hey if you can get cacs to cut checks.. I'll take it but I don't really see it happening
That's just for that one issue. And THEN you have to build a coalition of support OUTSIDE the group..
wrong!
blacks fought for integration which led to dependence. name a black leader that represents us? shay shay? charlagmane? FOH
you are still naive. i said we need leverage to approach politicians that affect policy. you still just want to ignore the truth.
white folks aint helping you out the kindness of their heart. they dont like you. sorry
yeah and you agree with every issue and policy the dems do.Dude just on the topic of reparations alone many blacks don't agree..

its not supposed to be easy. i guess we should give up and wait for them to give us what we want for another 70 years.
The Blacks who voted for Trump = "Be careful what you wish for." DEI policies with colleges --corporations will be outlawed. Forget about critical race theory being taught in schools teaching Black history. Qualified Immunity will be strengthened giving cops carte blanche to shoot/kill Blacks with more impunity. Trump will roll back Biden's policies that forgave student loan debt from rapacious for-profit-colleges handing out worthless degree to 1,000s of Blacks.
MEMO: "To the Kneegroes who complain about being on the '(D) Plantation' for automatically voting for (Ds)."
Look at the nationwide Red/Blue states map = 10 about Blue States -- the rest Blood Red.
Whites by the 10s of millions automatically vote (R) because the (Rs) deliver for them -- keeping Kneegroes in their place.
Whites are never ridiculed for being on the "(R) Plantation" but have bamboozled many Kneegroes into voting against their own best interests!
The lying/corrupt convicted felon/"Orange Blob" may cause a few $financial crumbs$ to fall your way while he is enriching the rich but he sure as hell doesn't represent your best interests.

That's the same the civil rights leaders said as the took bullets for your ass..and you disrespect that by disregarding their efforts and sacrifice.
Let's be honest, this was a criminal nation from day one so a person doesn't have be a convicted felon to be criminal. The United States has committed crimes against humanity, slavery and genocide, so don't be surprised a convicted felon is a US President. Rather, this is on-brand for the United States.
that has nothing to do with anything. shame aint gonna work. not following dumbness because it was the wrong move mlk even said so. you keep waiting to get integrated though, desperate for acceptance. let me know how that works out
Integration or segregation doesn't change the fact that if you want POLICY for the black community you still have go through government. Still looking for the answer if you can leveraged a 20 trillion dollar reparations deal?
