Black male supporters of Trump
I came across a clip today on CNN where Chris Wallace interviewed Stephen A. Smith, and they were discussing why Trump seems to have some level of support among young Black men. I was initially skeptical of Smith's take, given Trump's controversial history, but his response gave me something to think about. He mentioned that Trump speaks to a certain demographic, and honestly, there’s some truth to that.
Speaking as a Black man who knows a diverse range of other Black men, from different backgrounds and regions—whether wealthy, middle-class, or from the more disadvantaged parts of society—there is a segment that resonates with Trump. Unfortunately, this tends to be among those who are less engaged with politics, some who’ve had run-ins with the law, and others who may not be as informed about the issues. Some hold misogynistic views, which might explain part of their attraction to Trump’s rhetoric. Others just enjoy being contrarian for the sake of it. They’ll even go to barbershops or cookouts just to stir things up and cause upheaval in discussions, thriving on pushing buttons and provoking reactions. And, to be blunt, some of them are just downright idiots who don’t grasp the bigger picture or understand the implications of their choices. Many of them have never even bothered to vote, despite all their talk.
The key thing to remember, though, is that even if some of these individuals feel a certain way, many don’t actually vote, either because they aren’t registered or, in some cases, can’t due to felony convictions. So, when all is said and done, Trump’s share of the Black vote is still unlikely to exceed 10%. And that 10% tends to be people like Clarence Thomas and Tim Scott—those who have a different worldview, lean contrarian, and align more with conservative ideologies than the majority of Black Americans.

The irony of posting that on the DUmp like it's a bad mindset to have.
