because, at least in Texas, Democrats have been losing black and especially latino voters to Republicans hand over fist. It's borderline racist to assume black and latinos are automatically Democrats and not accepted by Republicans.
- _8j50 4y agoThen you misunderstood me. I very well know there are many republican voters that are black just not actual senators and congressmen. In NC and other southern states too. Conversley there are a lot of racist people in the PNW where states are mostly blue. Republicans will accept votes from anyone and at least right now will not engage in open and explicit public racism. They even have a few black law makers they use to say "see we have a black guy, we are not racist" because they can't get a majority at the state and federal level by alienating independents and not so extreme conservatives. Even the proudboys had a black person as their leader who supported them all the way until they called him a "token negro" and had an internal coup lol.
