Split\_p\_j is repetitive in that thread. And also, did I mention repetitive?

You still think truth is Trumps enemy? I really don’t know how to respond to this. I actually kind of understand why this board is so dense.

Really, Trump supporters don’t care about truth, they make their own truth.

Gotta love it when everybody feeds the troll and derails a perfectly good thread with bizarre irrational nonsense. Great job!

Have you considered “helping” the _other_ side for a bit? Because, frankly, you aren’t doing much for the side you supposedly support.

I’m trying to help, I’m trying. We are going to win or lose on the margins, and Trump is going after the margins.

The black vote has been critical in the past few elections and I’m telling you that the demographics have changed here. He is being advised that the elders that used to vote for the democrat no matter what are gone.

The new generation is raised that don’t understand the old lessons, and while they may not vote for Trump, they won’t vote for Harris either.

It’s a serious problem when we are talking about 10,000 votes in a swing state.

I’m not understanding why this board is not seeing this.

Because they’re wild, unsupported guesses. Just ten days ago or so you were insisting Harris had no chance of winning. Then you changed your mind a few days later. Why is your unsupported certainty now better than your unsupported certainty then?

I was wrong on that as I admitted, she can win. I was responding to a thread on his interview and was saying I get what he was trying to do and then everyone is asking me for cites like that is what I think.

I said he clearly has internal polling that says this is a good track the same track I’ve been talking about for more than a year. He’s been on message with those talking points since the debate, the same debate which caused Biden to drop out. He is being advised to hit a certain demographic.

I see a clear strategy here. It’s not just random oh Trump is a racist, so it doesn’t matter, its targeted.

Of course Trump is being advised on this. Which is completely irrelevant, because first, neither Trump nor anyone he associates with ever has any contact with black culture, and second, because Trump has never listened to any advisor.

He is listening, and he clearly has some black advisor. My guess is that it’s some younger YouTube personality with at least 200k subscribers. I know this board is old fashioned, a throw back to the early '00’s. that thinks they have “wisdom” even today. He is parroting point for point from black media YouTube.

He would have never gone to that convention otherwise.

He very successfully and way too easily hijacked the NABJ thread. Guys, do better with obvious bad faith posters!

I didn’t hijack it. You are trying to handwave this conference appearance as just Trump being Trump.

I explained that there is a reason for it.

[An example](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0vSdHcCvcjQ)

This guy has 140k subs, this is what the black youth are watching. For those that can’t be bothered he is basically saying that project 2025 doesn’t matter for black people.

This is the demo someone in the Trump camp is targeting. This demo sure as hell is not coming to a message board form the early 00’s to debate or answering unknown calls on their cell phone for polls.

Wake up.

Bwahahaaha!

At 100,000 subscribers, I hear the video captures the entire cultural zeitgeist.

You can scoff at 140k subs, but that is decent for YouTube, and it just shows how out of touch you are. People get sponsorships at 15 to 20K subs, flown by companies to review products.

You are lost on this old board and have no idea what is going on today, but then act as if what you say is fact.

If he had gone to that convention based on following sound advice, he would have stayed for the whole thing. Clearly, what happened there wasn’t what he thought was supposed to have happened there.

I have a client who has over 500,000 subscribers. He’s making about $15,000 a month.

140k is making money, but he’s not controlling some huge voting block.

Can someone explain to me why this dumbfuck has been allowed to hijack the thread in P&E about Trump at the Black journalist’s convention? What am I missing?

I actually clicked on the thread thinking there would be an actual discussion about the event, not the ranting of some dipshit who can’t support anything they vomit out of their piehole.
