        1. I'm not your "honey." 2. What an ignorant or silly thing to say that I "must not know any black people." Almost sounds racist. (And yet, I don't mind that you said it and you have a right to).

        Uh, if you say so but I'm pretty sure @RealDonaldTrump hasn't opposed free speech to date. Maybe I missed it! I do wish you the best and appreciate the general relative civility! I do like communicating w/people who have various views and experiences.

        Among which blacks? Doesn’t Rasmussen limit its polling to likely Repub voters?

        No, they do not primarily poll likely Repub voters?

        No they don't. What made you think such a thing? On the other hand, most of the other polls I looked at in 2016 heavily sampled Democrats more than the general voting population-- so they were inherently skewed, though not necessarily intentionally.

        I stand corrected. However, their methodology excludes calling cell phones meaning their polls, targeting only land lines skews very much toward an older demographic. Older people in America lean conservative & Repub. Accuracy would demand including cell phones and online data .

        LOL Cheryl... Rasmussen only polls likely voters...all the other polls use All Adult samples...which help build a Dem / Liberal narrative. As they switch to registered voters then likely voters...wallah...the race is tightening It's all about the narrative

        Which is why I base my vote on the issues candidates espouse, not poll numbers and why I work for the candidates I support.

        I think if these numbers are real, and hold up, you're looking at a generational shift of the kind we haven't seen since LBJ.

        The @QuinnipiacPoll puts @realDonaldTrump's Black approval rating at 9%. https://poll.qu.edu/national/release-detail?ReleaseID=2561 … … The @pewresearch June survey: 14% http://www.people-press.org/2018/06/20/1-views-of-donald-trump/ … …. Rasmussen's 36% is a joke.

        Roland, wouldn't you want whats best for the black community? Because the lowest unemployment ever is kinda a good thing. Obama didn't deliver that. Clinton didn't. The Bush's didn't. Trump did. Additionally wages are rising. Why cant you cheer good news and attribute it to Trump

        Maybe I should answer this question for you Roland. It's because you're invested in a Democrat narrative. It doesn't matter what Trump does to make Black Lives better. You'll still oppose it. That's inherently wrong. You should be cheering all hes done since hes bettering lives

        Sure, cheer #VoterSuppression. Cheer taking away ACA, which has helped millions. Cheer his appointment of a savage AG who has 1930s views on law enforcement. Cheer nonsensical housing policies that ignore racial discrimination. Cheer his nearly all white male judicial picks. NOPE

        You hit all the Dem talking points as expected. Lowest black unemployment in history for blacks Roland. Let's be honest here. No Republican would ever get your support. And this is the problem. What have Democrats done for blacks? Poverty double national average etc.
