'A Racist Is as a Racist Does'

When asked why he believes Trump’s direct appeal to the African-American community is false, Williams replied, “Are you kidding me? Seriously, do you really believe that

Except that a lot of anti-Trump conservative in Congress have said they are voting for Hillary, My 28 year vet of the CIA wife, who's also office holder in the Burnett county Women's Republican Club is voting for Hillary.

But, voting for Hillary should pretty much end their associating with the Republican party. If you don't like the party, get out.

Why is it a false invitation? The fact is the inner cities have been run mainly by democrats for the past 30 years

... and nothing has changed in the lives of the many who live there.

Why not change?

False. The image Trump paints is the white supremacist view of black life. The reality is that the African American community has seen job growth, lower crime and more opportunity.

CONCLUSION
The data analyzed in this update support the initial report’s conclusion that Americans continue to experience low crime rates. The average person in a large urban area is safer walking down the street today than he or she would have been at almost any time in the past 30 years. That does not mean there is not variation across cities.
In some cities, murder is up. However, there is not yet sufficient evidence to conclude these levels will persist in the future or are part of a national trend.
Although headlines suggesting a coming crime wave make good copy, a look at the available data shows there is no evidence to support that claim.

In 2013, Los Angeles reported 296 homicides in the city proper, which corresponds to a rate of 6.3 per 100,000 population—a notable decrease from 1980, when the all time homicide rate of 34.2 per 100,000 population was reported for the year.

How about a report with real data?

Your being just a racist as what you accuse Trump of being. "Yeah, but look at these graphs!"

stereotype-laden presidential-election-themed episode of the 1970s sitcom "Good Times."

Bobsal.... are you related, by any chance to Thomas33?

Trump is living in the real world and also looking at data. Do you think he just makes it up?

I can get graphs and charts showing the exact opposite of what you are showing. It's all about how you massage the data. It's meaningless when you are talking about real lives.

I've asked you, or any of your compatriots decrying that Trump is wrong to show me where people in the black community are yelling from the rooftops about how much better their lives are now since Obama became President.

“When they say that Donald Trump has a 1 percent favorability amongst the African-American community, I know from my own interactions that that number is absolutely and unequivocally inaccurate. I speak on a weekly basis to more than 100 African-American evangelical preachers who are all committed to ensuring Donald Trump becomes the next president of the United States. ... Unanimously, these African-American evangelical preachers all acknowledge that Donald Trump is colorblind when it comes to race and is only interested in ensuring that all Americans have the opportunity to thrive and achieve the American dream.”

Cohen’s brazenness, too, is an old lesson-plan from the code book of racism: The few blacks you talk to, who tell you they agree with you, outweigh studies, surveys and polls, demonstrations and all the other voluminous evidence of what the opinion of the mass of black Americans really is. In the decades before Jim Crow fell the Southern segregationists and their Northern fellow travelers played this dirty game all the time.
