The problem being these Trump supporters happen to be a couple of African-Americans females.

Well this appears to be today's chosen post for abuse, arguments, fake news:-). I wonder how long till the M word is used, enjoy .;-)

Sqad...I agree that some black people DID vote for Trump, but 8% is hardly a significant figure, in a country where the white population is estimated at about 74%.

In other words, if 8% of the black population voted Trump, then 92% either voted Clinton, of didn't vote at all.

Haha Freudian or what?

/// Sam....point in the direction of where I called these two women "thick" please ! ///

Then since you chose to put:
"They don't appear to be the brightest fireworks in the box", please give us your interpretation of that comment.

[Sqad]

mikey....I agree with what you have written, but i think that one may well argue that that insignificant support by the black voters for Trump,swayed the election in favour of Trump and hence is a significant point, not to be cast aside, as highlighted by the interview of the black sisters.
Yes it was 92% against Trump, but what a significant 8% for him.............and that was what i thought the sisters were highlighting.

Sqad
// the Black vote lost Hilary the election and probably won Trump the Presidency. //

Not sure that is an accurate conclusion. While 8% was a 2% rise from Obama, when Clinton won in 1996, 12% of African Americans voted Republican.

[Sqad]

Gromit......you may well be right......but that is my conclusion.

[mikey4444]

Sqad....but in the popular vote, Clinton got more support than Trump.

The reason that we now have President Trump isn't because of large quantities of blacks voting for him.....its because the Electoral College voted that way, with no reference to actual votes cast by real people !

[naomi24]

Mikey, I really don't know what you expect to achieve by repeating that ad infinitum. It's happened before and Trump is now the President. To use a phrase that you're so fond of - get over it.

[mikey4444]

Perhaps we should be thinking of why black people voted for Trump at all, given his racist attitudes ?

Do back Americans really think that they will be better off under Trump ! For instance, this group of Americans are more likely to need Obama care. Some of them, at least will be Muslim.

AH entered the debate at 9.54 hours, then chose to make the
/// Trump is a feminist????????????????? ///

/// Where on earth did you hear or read that??????????????????? //

At 9.54 hours, that makes the time period between the two to be 25 minutes exactly.

[Sqad]

mikey......you are correct, but that electoral system has been in vogue for decades and is a "common denominator " for all U.S election.
Like the UK where an election problem is decided on a swing of less that 1% of say 5% of voters.......small potatoes.

[andy-hughes]

Returning to the OP - it appears that the Anti-Trump Pro-Democrats have experienced no difficulty at all in commenting on the clip that AOG posted - looks like we are made of sterner stuff than he perhaps thought!

//its because the Electoral College voted that way, with no reference to actual votes cast by real people !//

Haha we have had "fake" news, now we have "fake" (not real) voters.

[Sqad]

mikey...OBAMACARE isn't going to be kicked into touch....it is going to be reviewed.
My opinion is, that yes,they do need a health service, but they are worried that it will be on the lines of the UK.NHS which many do not want.
None of use know what Trump has in mind for Healthcare in the U.S

[mikey4444]

Only a few days ago, it was being said that Trump acquitted himself rather well, in his address to Congress, But then, shortly after, made a fool of himself with the accusation that Obama had ordered a wiretap

[mikey4444]

Sqad...rather worryingly, it would appear that neither does Trump !

But in the run-up to the Election, Trump said he was going to abandon Obama care, and it was on that basis that these black people voted for him.

Since this pointless nitpicking seems so important to you that you are blind to posted evidence, please allow me to provide it for you -

Your post at 09:51 - //How the left can alter their views, ever since Trump came on the scene they have told us that Trump is is both racist and a feminist, yet here we have two black females who support him, and judging by what they say they are not on their own.

But be very careful mikey, you may have some accusing you of stereotyping and racism, due to your "not the brightest fireworks in the box" comment. //

That is a gap of three minutes – the times are from the site – so if we’re done with this, let’s move on and stop wasting everyone’s time.

[naomi24]

Mikey, you don't know if there is any truth in the allegation of phone tapping - and you don't know what Trump will do about healthcare. Rather than continue branding him - and others - fools at every opportunity why don't you just wait and see?

"Sqad...rather worryingly, it would appear that neither does Trump ! "

There you go again........under-estimating ...due to personal
bias....no big deal mikey, we all do it.

"But in the run-up to the Election, Trump said he was going to abandon Obama care, and it was on that basis that these black people voted for him."

I would have thought it would have been the other way round,as soon as the blacks got wind of Trump abandoning Obamacare, i would have thought that their votes would have gone to the Democrats......wouldn't you?
