The far-left media and top Democrats are none too happy that President-elect Donald Trump racked up a remarkable percentage of the black and Hispanic vote against Vice President Kamala Harris yesterday — most notably the votes of men — and now they’re attacking those demographics with the same hate speech once reserved for Trump and other white Republicans.
The men are racist and sexist, we are to believe, because they didn’t vote for Kamala Harris. Her loss is a victory for unalloyed racism and misogyny. Hispanics hate blacks. Neither group wants a woman leader.
Or so we are to believe, listening to the mourners at MSNBC and elsewhere.
Thus, Trump couldn’t possibly have won because he appealed to economic and other interests, and vowed to improve the fortunes of those men with lower prices on consumer goods.
Malign influences are the only explanation of his victory.
Scarborough Rants and Raves
Trump’s numbers among blacks and Hispanics were, indeed, remarkable.
“NBC News, which polled voters in 10 key states, said Trump’s support among Black voters in Wisconsin stands at around 21 percent, while Harris is at 77 percent,” Newsweek observed:
This is up from 2020, when Trump won just 8 percent of Black voters in the Badger State. …
In particular, Harris struggled to attract Black male voters — a trend confirmed by NBC’s exit poll, which reported that 78 percent of Black men supported her nationally. This marks a notable drop from 2020, when an estimated 90 percent of Black men cast their votes for Joe Biden.
Alvin Tillery, founder of the Alliance for Black Equality and co-founder of the 2040 Strategy Group, told Newsweek that the fact that Harris underperformed among Black voters was not surprising.
As for Hispanic voters, Harris — who called Trump today to concede the race — failed there, too. She received 53 percent of support among the group; Biden pulled 59 percent in 2020.
The exit polls showed Trump’s support among Hispanics at 45 percent, a massive increase from 38 percent four years ago, Newsweek reported:
Harris’ declining vote share among Latinos was also partly driven by men, with 54 percent of Latino men backing Trump in this election, up from 36 percent in 2020.
That truth sent Joe Scarborough over the edge … not that he hasn’t taken the trip before.
Speaking to racialist Democrat Al Sharpton on Morning Joe, the former Republican congressman went after the Trump-voting blacks and Hispanics with both fists.
“Democrats need to be mature,” he said, “and they need to be honest. And they need to say, ‘Yes, there is misogyny, but it’s not just misogyny from white men.’”
Rather, he continued:
It’s misogyny from Hispanic men. It’s misogyny from black men … who do not want a woman leading them. Might be race issues with Hispanics. They don’t want a black woman. … [I]t is time for the Democrats to say OK. … A lot of Hispanic voters have problems with black candidates.
Sharpton nodded and agreed.
“And with other Hispanics,” he said. “You got some that don’t like each other. And some of the most misogynist things I’ve heard going on this get-out-the-vote tour came from black men. I mean misogynist things. So you’re absolutely right.”
The men agreed the Democrats must have an “honest conversation” about it.
Williams: The “Bro Strategy” Worked
Speaking on Fox News, far-left analyst Juan Williams began a rant about the mostly peaceful protest at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021.
Williams just doesn’t understand how Americans voted Trump into the White House after he incited an “insurrection.”
“Half the country now, Juan, is going to say, ‘That is not what I care about. I care about my economy. I care about immigration,’” Fox talker Bret Baier said.
“That’s where we differ,” Williams said, “I’m not sold on this idea that, ‘Oh, it was the cost of eggs.’ I worry that it was, ‘Well, I’m not voting for this woman. Or I’m not voting for this black woman,’” he complained. “The bro strategy largely worked,” particularly “along the lines of white men.”
Yet “the bro strategy also had some impact in terms of Latino and black men who came along and gave higher percentages,” he added.
Told that blacks thought Harris and Biden “put immigrants before us,” Williams recoiled.
“I think that’s possible,” he said. “I don’t know that for a fact.”
Then he returned Trump’s evil “Bro Strategy,” which is completely unlike Harris’ “Sis Strategy” to get votes from women.
“I think there are tensions between racial groups, and people might feel that,” Williams said:
Obviously, you can exploit those tensions, and you can exacerbate them to the point where you can politically benefit from it. Do I think that’s the reason he won?
No. I think the reason he won is … that “bro strategy” and the white male turnout and white grievance politics that he has used to great success in this country.
Not so, said GOP consultant Karl Rove.
“I just think it is extremely odd to suggest that black men are somehow prejudiced because they vote for a white candidate who says, ‘I want to make certain that everybody has an opportunity to succeed in our great economy, I want you to be more prosperous, and I will do things that will make it possible for you to make a better life,’” he replied:
That is an appeal to their best instincts. He did not go out and say, vote for me because I’m not a woman. Don’t vote for me because I’m a white man. And to suggest that somehow black men are racist because they supported a white man is just too far, Juan.
With help from the likes of former President Barack Hussein Obama, the far-left Harris Media Information Ministry has pushed the narrative that only misogynists wouldn’t vote for Harris.
“Part of it makes me think that, well, you just aren’t feeling the idea of having a woman as president, and you’re coming up with other alternatives and other reasons for that,” he said at a Harris event in October.
“Kamala Harris has a problem with men. Will misogyny cost her the election?” was the headline over a piece in the far-left Guardian. “Sexism could swing the vote in Donald Trump’s favour.”
Or maybe, as Rove said, black and Hispanic men simply thought Trump was the better candidate.
