From The Blaze: “Minorities Speak”

2020 College Students

“Many young minority college students are on Team Trump, and say that they will not vote for former Vice President and Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden no matter the case.

Campus Reform traveled to several college campuses where they spoke with minority students to gauge their responses on whether they would vote for Trump or for Biden.

Below you can read some of the more interesting responses as to why the students will not be voting for Biden on Tuesday:

• "Joe Biden has been in government for almost 50 years, and that man was a racist. ... There's a video of him with Ruth Bader Ginsburg ... trying to justify the Confederate flag."
  
  
• "You're telling me because of my skin color I have to think a certain way. That is racist."
  
  
• "If he were to be elected, imagine how many more black people would be probably incarcerated.  He and Kamala have contributed to black people's incarceration."

You can also watch some of the students' reactions in the video below.

You can read some of the more interesting points on Trump below, and watch a video of the students' responses.

• "I don't think he is perfect, but I think that he is actually trying to make America great again in the best way he believes he can do it."
  
  
• "Even when he referred to African countries as being 'craphole' countries, he was specifically talking about their economies, and that's just something that is not debatable."
  
  
• "In 2016, I probably wouldn't be having this conversation with you. I was a Bernie bro to the fullest. ... He is a very blunt president, but ... when you take his Twitter aside, he actually has done many successful things as a president."
  
  
• "Prison reform [has helped minority communities.]."
  
  
• "I think a lot of his tax cuts benefit minorities as well."
  
  
• "The economy [is] helping minorities. You see the African-American rate being all-time low, Hispanic unemployment being at all-time low, Trump's economic plans after the tax cuts and jobs act have definitely brought up our communities of color, our minority communities."

One correction in the Blaze piece:  When Mr. Trump referred to "shithole" countries he was talking about Caribbean island countries that have been neglected, abused and corrupted in our own hemisphere which we have long abhorred, but done little to remedy as they have so little potential other than for stitching baseballs. 

This may well be the first national election in our history that will have been won by our young people.  Generally you have to be a Senior Citizen to be considered a reliable Republican voter and the young people have been too busy chasing one another or playing with the new, hot toy or gizmo, cell phone for example, but now thanks to the Internet and social media they are politically “hip.”  So much for "Main Stream Media."  At least you will enjoy seeing Jeff Bezos shed big tears over his billion Dollar investment in the Washington Post.

And, the young are completely under the burden of outrageous college tuition and textbook prices.  Given the cost history of colleges in the latter half of the 20^th century there is no justification for the cost of four years of instruction of questionable value and no job guarantees.

There is a revolution brewing on our campuses that is now coming to a boil “Doctor Professors” and Administrators are not going to believe.  If they pay attention to this election they may try to mend their ways, but having grown up in that house I doubt the academicians will see it coming.

This certainly will be the most interesting election of my long life and one that we can all hope will right the wrong direction we have been in for 60 years!
