Black Men Are Voting for Trump: Not Race, but Sex, Now Drives US Politics

Race is a subterfuge used by the Left to disguise its real agenda and outmaneuver the Right.  It works.

Stephen Baskerville

Race is rightly considered the “original sin” of American politics, the issue that has bedeviled us from the start and still inflames emotions on both the Right and the Left.  That is why it is invoked as the silver bullet that stops all debate.  But race is no longer the principal dynamic driving US politics, and it is not the decisive factor in this election.

As I have repeatedly suggested (in [a previous post and] the NER and more extensively in my new book), the race issue is a deception, a flanking maneuver used by today’s Left to divert the attention of the Right and the rest of us from its real agenda.  The cutting edge of today’s Left is sex, which is its most potent weapon for taking control of America and the West.

The latest evidence may contribute decisively to the outcome of this election.  Black men are defying the conventional wisdom and voting for Donald Trump.  Black women are not doing this, nor are women generally, especially unmarried women (with black women disproportionately unmarried).  Scolding from the Obamas and other Kamala groupies seems to have no effect on the men.

This means that black men now see their interests as different from those of black women.  It means that for them sex — excuse me, “gender” — is more important than race.  If this is true of black men and women, it is even more true of others.

It is impossible to underestimate the importance of this shift. (…)
