The president once hailed himself as "the best president for the Black population."

    They were all paid actors or either laying low and avoiding making waves. No one wants to be the new target

      It’s nice to think that but 1 out of every 5 Blacks voted for Trump.

        there is a big difference between voting and holding a sign strategically placed behind trump while he is rallying

          Other link said 80% voted for Harris but this says 15% voted for Trump. Still crazy high given Trump’s previous history as president.

            Ok, that’s a percentage of black voters, not all black Americans.

              If you choose not to decide you still have made a choice.

      I remember a black guy holding a poster of obama with a hitler mustache throught his terms near some the student union excalators. I mean there may be a non zero chance he was not a paid shill but it was higher than any random religion has it all precisely right down to the last detail.
