But I think the number of people who think it is true, should be 100% for republicans and democrats, and shouldn't be an indicator of racism. Because it's not just the rantings of some racist uncle. It's true. Here's why. Here's how we're going to try and fix it.
The standard opinion seems to be: It's not true. Here's the reasons why it is true. Here's how we're going to fix it.
Does supporting Trump help fix it?
I think it might. My opinion is first and foremost poor black folks need money. I'm hoping switching to "America First" vs. Globalism gives some better opportunities for people in the US.
"Well, then instead of tax cuts for the super rich..." I don't disagree with this. Rich people love giving other rich people money. And everyone in our government is rich. Rich people weren't hurting under Obama. Wallstreet didn't have a problem with Hillary. I'd liked to have seen what Bernie would've done.
But with Trump, he's at least not in lockstep with the machine. Congress is still bought, but there's at least some push for variation.
We'll see how it looks in 2020. But I think the economy is the best bet for civil rights at this point.
