Specifically, why do most African Americans think Trump is racist?

Do most black people know about Birtherism,central five case,denouncing white supremacists, and apartment renting thing? But seriously,
1. Birtherism. Trump would have done the same thing with Hillary or anyone else if there was a question where they born
2.Central 5 thing- Umm, they were guilty
3. Denouncing white supremacists- Trump never said they were "fine people" Trump has probably never thought about race in his life. He has cared about money.Thats it
4. Apartment renting. He did stuff to make money. Why wouldn't you discriminate against people that pay with section 8

Because the media told them he's racist. That's all that matters to most.

TV continually tells them to think that way.

Sadly they want to believe it so it makes it easier.
"To be a warrior is not a simple matter of wishing to be one. It is rather an endless struggle that will go on to the very last moment of our lives. Nobody is born a warrior, in exactly the same way that nobody is born an average man. We make ourselves into one or the other."-- Carlos Castaneda

1. Hillary's camp is actually the one who started the "birther" story. Also, the media did the same claim against McCain (born in Panama, but on a US base). I do believe that Obuma was born in Kenya. His own people said so until it wasn't convenient.
3. Definitely a successful "tell a lie long enough" example.

Overall, it is because as a whole, they are low information voters. They don't pay attention to politics but want to wave their fist in the air against "the man" because of all the problems in their neighborhoods. They listen to the "community organizers" that promise that just a little more money from government can finally fix the problems. And they tell people that the Republicans are against this funding and therefore want them to suffer.

Today at the gym there were herds of them all hanging out in the gym doing jumping jacks in the squat area and it was leg day. They were doing curls on the bench press area. They are just an inconsiderate race of people

As others have already said.

Media influence. A little digging on sleepy Joe would show that he is most likely the racist one, but most people voted for him anyway believing his lies and foolishly falling for the "u ain't black" bait.

I used to hold hope that the black community would wake up and realize neither party cares for our political interests and only see us as pawns. Not anymore. I hate to see it, SRS.

For the same reason most normies are retarded.. It's the same answer as when someone asks why most women are retarded, because most people are in general.

Most black and latino people don't view Trump as racist. OP believes media hype.

Doesn't mean they'll vote for him though. The realty is the Right IS very racist. Misc shows that all the time. Wasn't always like this, but lol at conservatives talking **** about everyone 24/7 and then wondering why no one is rushing to support them

At this point woke blacks will never ever pass up an opportunity to be victims, even when Trump's said nothing against black people they'll latch on to illegals and terrorists because they wish he'd say something about them like he did those groups.

Unfortunately the black voting bloc is hopelessly lost.

2020 showed how low the collective self esteem is. ".....then you ain't black."

And he got 90%. Pathetic.

Managed to embarrass black voters on the world stage more than Hillary's hotsauce. Unfortunately the black voting bloc doesn't possess to requisite shame to feel absolutely mortified.
The closer we approach the uncertainty of life's ending the more we wish to trade all of the things we have acquired in exchange for all of the things we have lost: wealth for youth, knowledge for fresh curiosity, resignation for hope. We'd trade our wisdom for new experiences, but it is wisdom that will teach us that at the end of the road the only new experience is death.

First things first I'd prefer him over Biden or Hillary any day. It's mostly media but he doesn't really help his case for the black community. His policies probably benefit us more than libs and I don't think he's actually racist but anytime he gets the chance he panders to redneck America. I cringed at the whole "stand back & stand by" debacle at the debate. He had one job, but he fukked it up. Especially after Biden's "you ain't black" comment....a lot of blacks didn't like that. Trumps too unhinged when it comes to commenting on race and so it's easy for MSNBC to make him look like a KKK member.

TLDR Media demonizes him to minorities but he doesn't do enough to change the narrative

They want to believe it so they have yet another excuse to be "opressed". We're opressed because of Donald Trump. There is nothing I've seen that would cause them to say that.

Before he ran for president he was loved by the left. Then once he ran against Hilary the corporate media started chopping up the things he said to paint their narrative that he was a racist.

Democrats also think its racist to not allow illegal immigration so there is that too.

But don't forget Trump pardoned Kodak lol

Trumpycon is a geriatric corporate pawn who got cucked by pelosi, the dems, and china at every negotiation. He even backed down and refused to fight a dementia ridden biden. Trump is as beta as it gets.

Have you not seen what a Toxic cesspool Twitter has become since Trump has been reinstated?

Do you not see the advertisers, news outlets, and celebrities leaving Twitter in droves since in the last few days due to the racist, transphobic rhetoric Trump promotes?

Twitter was a utopia before Trump came back. Now it’s unusable due to his influence and his tweets.













Oh he hasn’t actually posted anything on Twitter since he returned? Doesn’t matter, just the thought that he could post if he wanted to creates a hostile environment.

lol this is actually the smartest take. Black people don't believe everything the TV box tells them, but they are savvy enough to know that regardless of what Trump thinks, the Republicans themselves are clearly racist
