Trump thinks he can win primarily by focusing on the working class white vote, but that isn't going to give him the election.
Whoever hears the message, hears the message. Whoever is too blind, is too blind.
People of color are mostly clueless leftists stuck in identity politics, so they don't count. In politics you pick your battles. The left have done a real number on them. Since the left has done a great job of smearing Trump as racist, there is no point targeting that demographic.
Trump doesn't need them to vote for him. He needs them to stay home which they will. The left only really rally to positive messages. "Hope and change!!! Yay!!! Have some free stuff!!! Yay!!!" is what gets them. There is no cult of personality to fire them up like Obama did. Hillary doesn't really have their loyalty. She's just a tired old cracker.
The Democratic party has already brainwashed the blacks to think they are their party ( until they start thinking for themselves )
Sad, isn't it?
All he is trying to do is keep his core of morons happy. He knows he is not going to win. SO now, he will do what he does best. Stir up mayhem. He is addicted to the roar of any crowd. If they are not roaring he disappears. In both the speechifying and the numbers in the polls.
All that is being talked about now is how unstable he is. Turn on almost any channel and there are groups of people debating how much of a lying imbecile narcissist this man is. He is an embarrassment to his party. He is an embarrassment to himself and the morons who back him cannot see it. Those are the numbnuts that he so desperately is performing for.
When Hillary gets in, he will spend the next 4 years trying to dig up dirt on her and lying about what he finds. He will have an audience for it. The same people who have followed him since day one. They will kill for him if he asks them to.
I wonder how far he will push his ego. It would be so great if he gets arrested for something. He thinks he is untouchable.
I hear his campaign funds are in deep doo doo as well. TRUMP IS BROKE. LOL
Lindon Johnson did more for Equal Rights than any president since. And I didn't even like the guy.
Read the TRUTH about the man. Not some internet meme that takes his life out of context. I used to say "nigger" a lot. It was not even considered that derogatory back then. You wouldn't know this since you are incapable of studying anything in depth.
President Kennedy had submitted a civil-rights bill to Congress in June 1963, which was met with strong opposition.[81][82] Johnson renewed the effort and asked Bobby Kennedy to spearhead the undertaking for the administration on Capitol Hill. This provided adequate political cover for Johnson should the effort fail; but if it were successful, Johnson would receive ample credit.[83] Historian Robert Caro notes that the bill Kennedy had submitted was facing the same tactics that prevented the passage of civil rights bills in the past; southern congressmen and senators used congressional procedure to prevent it from coming to a vote.[84] In particular, they held up all of the major bills Kennedy had proposed and that were considered urgent, especially the tax reform bill, in order to force the bill's supporters to pull it.[84]
Johnson was quite familiar with the procedural tactic, as he played a role in a similar tactic against the civil rights bill that Harry Truman had submitted to congress fifteen years earlier.[84] In that fight, a rent-control renewal bill was held up until the civil-rights bill was withdrawn.[84] Believing that the current course meant that the Civil Rights Act would suffer the same fate, he adopted a different strategy from that of Kennedy, who had mostly removed himself from the legislative process. By tackling the tax cut first, the previous tactic was eliminated.[85]
Passing the civil rights bill in the house required getting it through the Rules Committee, which had been holding it up in an attempt to kill it. Johnson decided on a campaign to use a discharge petition to force it onto the house floor.[86] Facing a growing threat that they would be bypassed, the House rules committee approved the bill and moved it to the floor of the full house, which passed it shortly thereafter by a vote of 290–110.[87] In the Senate, since the tax bill had passed three days earlier, the anti-civil-rights senators were left with the filibuster as their only remaining tool. Overcoming the filibuster required the support of over twenty Republicans, who were growing less supportive due to the fact that their party was about to nominate for president a candidate who opposed the bill.[88] According to Caro, it was ultimately Johnson's ability to convince Republican leader Everett Dirksen to support the bill that amassed the necessary Republican votes to overcome the filibuster in March 1964; after 75 hours of debate, the bill passed the senate by a vote of 71–29.[89][90] Johnson signed the fortified Civil Rights Act of 1964 into law on July 2.[90] Legend has it that as he put down his pen Johnson told an aide, "We have lost the South for a generation", anticipating a coming backlash from Southern whites against Johnson's Democratic Party.[91]
Biographer Randall B. Woods has argued that Johnson effectively used appeals to Judeo-Christian ethics to garner support for the civil rights law. Woods writes that Johnson undermined the Southern filibuster against the bill:
LBJ wrapped white America in a moral straight jacket. How could individuals who fervently, continuously, and overwhelmingly identified themselves with a merciful and just God continue to condone racial discrimination, police brutality, and segregation? Where in the Judeo-Christian ethic was there justification for killing young girls in a church in Alabama, denying an equal education to black children, barring fathers and mothers from competing for jobs that would feed and clothe their families? Was Jim Crow to be America's response to "Godless Communism"? [92]
Woods states that Johnson's religiosity ran deep: "At 15 he joined the Disciples of Christ, or Christian, church and would forever believe that it was the duty of the rich to care for the poor, the strong to assist the weak, and the educated to speak for the inarticulate."[93] Johnson shared the beliefs of his mentor, FDR, in that he paired liberal values to religious values, believing that freedom and social justice served both God and man.[94]
The point of those quotes is not that he said n*gger. It's that he showed his clear intention to give black people "a little something" to gain their support but still intends to keep them subjugated.
All the left secretly wish to do is keep black people poor and dependent on welfare so that they will always vote left.
