New polls could spell doomsday for Dems as black voter approval of Trump doubles, race relations improve

Democrats are going to be bitterly disappointed as they lose their monolithic support from African Americans. Trump is doing real things to help as opposed to lip service and lousy results Dems provide.
Of course, the latest numbers will probably not be making headlines in the liberal media, as conservative commentator and radio show host Dan Bongino noted. The liberal media narrative continues to counter Trump’s support among black voters but the latest poll numbers show a different story, as the president has touted how his economy has benefited black Americans with unemployment rates at record lows, an improved economy, prison reform, and urban renewal programs.
Back in November, Emerson and Rasmussen polls reported Trump polling at 34%, and a Marist poll showed a 33% approval among black voters. Of course, the latest numbers will probably not be making headlines in the liberal media, as conservative commentator and radio show host Dan Bongino noted. The state of race relations under Trump has also been tracked and both Rasmussen and Gallup polls found an improvement under the current administration versus that of former President Barack Obama. First daughter Ivanka Trump touted the latest Gallup poll in a tweet on Thursday. “ Gallup records double-digit increases in public satisfaction with the nation’s economy, security from terrorism, military strength and the state of race relations,” since Trump took office in 2017, according to the latest survey.
“Satisfaction is also up by between six and nine points on crime, the position of blacks and other racial minorities, the distribution of income and wealth, and the opportunity for a person to get ahead through hard work,” the report indicated.
“The position of blacks and other racial minorities in the nation” saw an increase of 9 points since Obama’s exit, from 37% in January 2017 to 46% currently. And the state of race relations was at 36% this month, up 14 points from 22% at the end of the Obama administration, Gallup found.
“Americans’ average satisfaction rating for the 27 issues Gallup has tracked consistently since 2001 is now 47%. This is up three points from a year ago and is the highest since the January 2005 poll,” the report also indicated. “Today’s average satisfaction is roughly on par with the level of the early 2000s. Only in 2002 was the average for this metric substantially higher than it is today.”
And the left continues to dismiss, or outright ignore, the numbers.

Support for Trump among blacks on the rise? Every point by Freida Powers is wrong. The wealth is concentrating, personal debts are increasing, public debts are higher than
ever. The cohesion of America is fractured and all of it by design. Americans are being divided by outside players and Trump is using those divisions for his own personal protection.

What now 4 black guys support Trump!?!
I would imagine Trump would have earned more support from African Americans if they watched the SOTU, since Trump particularly highlighted and pointed out a number of situations concerning them, such as the girl getting a scholarship, the boy wanting to go into space, his grandfather who was an original Tuskagee Airman, the man who was down and out and now is employed... It might be more telling to see new polls after the SOTU.
and it might be more important to be a black person talking to a white person who both work at say,
the equivalent jobs at a medical center in Baltimore MD and seeing if their experiences are the same or not.
Living the "dream here" is so much more accurate than opinions or than polls "from here" or questions from "over there".
Polls are so dynamic, like does anyone know how much more often Black American Independent Voters participate in polls
versus other demographics, like Canadians who live in Communist China?
Just asking, not picking a fight, it's late here so I must retire soon to avoid being grouchy tomorrow....

I know that polls can be misleading because they can be manipulated so easily - the demographics that are polled, the questions that are asked, etc.
Forget that I was curious - I'll just wait and see what's reported.
You mean the one that Betsy Devos is going to pay for and claim a tax deduction?
Ya that's an AMAZING policy accomplishment isn't it? /s
There are at least a dozen articles about it. Go look.
How about just asking black voters?
In an ESSENCE x BWR poll released in September, Black women felt similarly about the man occupying the oval office. At the time, 83 percent said that the GOP leader deserved an ‘F’ for his job as president. They also expressed concern over the racism that runs rampant within our justice system. In the ESSENCE x BWR poll, criminal justice and policing reform were the number one issue going into the 2020 election.
Ok, since you put your faith in that poll, I expect you can give me your opinion. Will Trump (after a term in office) improve on his 2016 black support of 8%?
Unlike all the white folks here speaking for blacks, I went and checked what blacks thought, and they seem not to like him. I am not sure what that 8% was based on, so I will not guess as to if it will change.
The 8% was the percentage of black vote for Trump in 2016 and unlike the other "white folks" who don't want to admit it - I'll say it - HE WILL WITHOUT DOUBT IMPROVE ON THE 8% AFTER BENEFITING MINORITIES FOR 3 PLUS YEARS!
Yes, as this chart shows, the African American unemployment rate was WAY up there and took a YUGE dip after Trump took office:
Source, the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
the same was true in 2016 - so, what's your point?
IF 1/3 of black voters support trump?
the dems simply can not win.
