    So you're saying that we should all be angry and say whatever comes up flying out of our heads the first time? And then held to It? Oh this place would be a delight.

    P.S. MickeyRat, I was talking to another person, so whatever.

    What's the explanation for the sampling of black voters voting Hillary against their own interests?

    How do you figure it is against their own interests? They heavily supported Obama, and Hillary will be the candidate who will be most closely aligned with Obama and his policies.
    Hillary is getting more of the black vote in some states then Obama did.
    That's twice they voted against their own self interests.
    The false notion that Obama was "bad for black people" still continues, huh?
    How do you come to that conclusion?

    "He has done nothing for African Americans. You look at what's gone on with their income levels. You look at what's gone on with their youth. I thought that he would be a great cheerleader for this country. I thought he'd do a fabulous job for the African-American citizens of this country. He has done nothing," Trump said.

    "They have problems now in terms of unemployment numbers, look at their unemployment numbers. And you have— here you have a black president who's done very poorly for the African Americans of this country," Trump added.

    The poverty rate for African Americans has become worse over the past few years. It was 25 percent when President Bush left office. It rose to 28 percent in 2013 -- the most recent stat available. One out of three black children, 38 percent of all African American children, lived in poverty in 2013, as reported by PEW on July 14. Overall, there are more people living in poverty in the U.S. than at other time in U.S. history at 45 million people.

    Troll with quotes and such, but no direct responses. You're a likable republican. I understand you don't really have a decent candidate to vote for, so you come to the PJ page to try and rile up us liberals when you know Trump's a piece of work. Your party will have it whittled down to one guy to go against Trump pretty soon, don't worry.

    JAG?!? Is that you? If it is, your posts make a lot more sense now. If it isn't, are you her groupie? Contributing to the topic is one of the guidelines as well. Constantly posting WOOT on everything doesn't really bring anything to the discussion. Shit like this is why I stay off the train most days. We've all seen this formula before:

    1. Make ridiculous shit posts all over.
    2. Get called out on being a troll.
    3. Complain people are bullying.

    Did I miss anything?

    To answer op's question, yes. They are the minority, but obviously they are around.
