    Cool as a rule, but sometimes bad is bad.

    Hillary has been counting on getting the African-American turnout that Obama got in 2012.

    Maybe folks are tired of being sold down the river for a free phone and a few speeches where elitist leaders try to talk street.

    I'd have made tuition vouchers a big issues if I were running, and taken it to the black communities of this country as a way to get them access to a decent education. The Left has done NOTHING to truly lift communities of any ethnicity out of poverty, nor do they WANT them out of poverty.

    Trump was right to do what he did, he just needed to do it earlier and more often and stay on message.
    People keep asking if I'm back and I haven't really had an answer. But now, yeah, I'm thinkin' I'm back.

    You can tell yourself that all you want to convince you of a Trump win, but that's not true at all.

    Her campaign has always accepted that it would be difficult to impossible to replicate the black turnout. They've calculate a turnout needed to build their own coalition, but it's less dependent on black turnout similar to 2012 and focused more on other groups, such as millenials, Latinos, Never Trump GOPers and women, the last 3 of those that weren't really a large block of the Obama coalition.

    When the final votes are tallied, the black vote for Trump will NOT be double that of 2012. I'm fairly confident that while turnout will be lower for blacks, that Hillary will actually get a larger percentage that will offset enough to get the numbers that the campaign has calculated that it needs to win the election.
