Congressman Cleaver Considers Racial Divide Of 2024 MAGA Victory

Without question . . . Many will read this column from the Congressman Cleaver and call it divisive at best. 

It's the mission of this blog to point out inconvenient facts even when the might contradict someone we respect like the congressman.

Consider . . . One analyst claims: 

Donald Trump Won More Black Voters Than Any Republican in 48 Years

Agree or disagree . . . That's worth considering.

Meanwhile, here's the message from Kansas City's top ranking statesman . . .

"Many voters will declare that race played no role in their decision, and that the economy and border crisis were the two big issues. Even if that were the case (I truly don’t believe that it was), it still shows that Black and white Americans are not on the same page. Why do I say that? Because white Americans primarily voted for Trump and Black Americans voted predominantly for Harris.

"To ignore the stark differences in voting preferences would be like a husband ignoring his wife when she says there is a problem in the marriage. If one-half of the couple says there is a problem, it doesn’t matter whether the other half agrees. The hardcore truth is, there is a problem.

"By and large, African Americans believed Harris was the clear choice for president. The fact that most white voters disagreed highlights that we view things differently. In addition, Black people have other concerns that many white people take for granted. Unbiased policing, mass incarceration and economic inequality are major concerns within the Black community, and they aren’t necessarily topics that resonate with white folk."
