You guys should've known back then that he was an attention whore. I knew... I always knew. Then I bought Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon on VHS at a Target that day. For some reason I remember that.
I'd like to see this reflected elsewhere and before getting nervous. Trump's support from black men doubling in a week because of Kanye feels extreme.
No one man should have all that power if true.
As a general rule of life, a minimum of 33% of any sampled group will inevitably be complete fucking morons.
So this sucks, but hey, still way ahead of the curve.
Elections are based on two things. Your margins with particular groups, and the propensity for the groups your candidate has a positive margin with to turn out. Hillary was a terrible candidate because she is not exciting and does not turn out voters. Trump was just exciting enough to overcome his deficits.
Has anyone made the "so two black people support him now" joke?

That's not what has happened at all since 2016, but okay.I honestly think Trump will not only get more votes next time, but that less voters will turn out to vote against him due to apathy or a general feeling he'll win anyway.
I doubt Trump will make it past his first term.I honestly think Trump will not only get more votes next time, but that less voters will turn out to vote against him due to apathy or a general feeling he'll win anyway.
Government failed them on so many levels, can't expect someone to keep coming back when they're getting nothing but worse treatment.are you a s t a t i s t i c i a n ?
but anyway, i feel like this is a good launching pad for a discussion on how cishet black men are most prone to break away from the black community and what we can do to prevent that from happening because we need them
I hope so, but i'm not setting up myself or others for disappointment.
It really is weird, ain't it.Yeezy stans scare me. The ones here in particular seem even more fanatical than diehard NRA supporters.
I can't speak for anybody else, but it's not that I think there's anything wrong with the sample size, just that there's absolutely no way you can make an inference like "Trump's black male support has doubled" from it.200 people as a subset of panelists isn't out of the norm, y'all. That's pretty much in-line with other leading polls (e.g. Pew, based on their average totals) would have too, and Reuters is amongst them.
Obviously, don't freak out, and obviously, larger sample-size = greater statistical power, but this is pretty standard, and limited by survey means and resources (and these samples are expensive AF to continually poll as is) that you'd only really get a more generalizable result if someone literally has been waiting for Kanye to go off the rails and had this specific study question in mind for years.
It's definitely a bold headline to have a limitation like that, for sure.
And then there are tons of people ready to jump on this note to make inferences and racial slurs towards black men at the drop of the hat in this very thread.This is a bullshit, agenda driven headline based on statistical noise over the course of seven days.
anyone see the irony in Kanye talking about free thought and then people polling a bunch of Kanye dickriders about their thoughts
Damn man, you really shouldn't be letting your favorite entertainer sway you towards insanity. Pop culture really has a tremendous effect on people, generally for the worse.
The type of dude that would support Trump because of Kanye is the type of dude that rants about the illumanti in the Barbershop
Not sure why everyone is saying Trump is racist towards the black community. In any case this doubling still isn't very much. Democrats could still prevail if they shape up soon.
You basically don't understand how elections generally work.I honestly think Trump will not only get more votes next time, but that less voters will turn out to vote against him due to apathy or a general feeling he'll win anyway.
