1. How Is It Possible

that even 9 percent of African Americans and 17 percent of Hispanics support him? I'd have guessed both were around 0 to begin with, which is what made me curious enough to open this thread. I was wondering if it was possible that Dump had become the first ever to post a negative/negative.

2. During the runup to the election some state polls had him at zero with African Anericans.

He ended up with 8%. Trump will tell you that's great. He did better than McCain and Romney but worse than every other Republican presidential candidate when the Democratic presidential candidate wasn't Barack Obama.

5. I have a friend

She's an African-American public defender in Arizona...her dad supports Trump! His reasons basically fall into:

A) Hillary Clinton is as bad as her husband.
B) The Democrats want to take our guns.

She tries to defend her dad, because he's her dad!

7. Trump got 3% of African American women

12% of African American men. I attrubute the latter to the residue of patriachy.

10. Joy Reid has AfAm Rs on all the time and the MSNBC bookers find them

for other shows. I am always amazed, but they are out there.

3. Look at the numbers for the South!

41% strongly disapprove???? Can that be right?

4. Small Samples

6. There's a segment of African-Americans who don't necessarily support Trump.

Rather, they'll vote republican no matter what because of Lincoln and make excuses for voting against their interests.

Prime examples: Dr. Ben Carson and his handler, Armstrong Williams.

8. How can he ever had any support among those groups in the first place?

But I guess there are always a few misguided souls, like the Log Cabin Republicans, who want to belong to a club that won't let them in. After the family separation debacle I don't see him doing at all well among Latinos. Or, for that matter, any human being who isn't a heartless dick.

9. "Cratering" implies a change from past to present. I can't find that...

... in the link. Would someone point me in the right direction?
