'It's The Economy, Stupid!' Black And Hispanic Voters Embrace Trump On Economics And Well-Being

Last week, President Trump left his trial in Manhattan to visit a bodega in Washington Heights, a mostly black and immigrant community on the Upper West Side of Manhattan and received a hero's welcome from the working people there.

What is undeniable is that polling shows Donald Trump has upended much of the black and Hispanic voting support Democrats have enjoyed since at least Lyndon Johnson's "Great Society" and, at least in some instances, back to FDR's New Deal.

A Wall Street Journal poll showed that President Trump's support among black men in swing states had moved to 30 percent earlier this month compared to just 11 percent of black men nationally in 2020.

As shown in the chart above, black victims of crime actually decreased during the Trump presidency.

Education President Trump made permanent a commitment of $255 million in annual funding for historically black colleges and universities, and he increased funding for the Federal Pell Grant program by signing the FUTURE Act.

Summary Black and Hispanic voters are moving toward President Trump for a simple reason: their pocketbook and their well-being.

Black and Hispanic voters have every reason to depart from their traditional voting patterns.
