Not really an endorsement of Trump, but encouraging members to vote against Hillary and the Democratic Party (by voting for Trump).
This is H
UGE
This week X and Patrick discussed Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, with X coming out in favor of Trump, citing what he called a disloyalty to African-Americans by the Democratic Party.
"We have been voting for the Democratic Party like no other race in America, and they have not given us the same loyalty and love that we have given them," X said. "We are being pimped like prostitutes. They are the big pimps, pimping us politically, promising us everything, and we get nothing in return," X said.
I like this quote
X said he was moved by Trump's recent speech in Milwaukee in the wake of area riots after the shooting of an African-American suspect by a police officer.
"We may not like the vessel that said what he said, but I ask us to truly examine what he said," X said.

From what source are you quoting? I find it very hard to believe Quanell X would say that.

I wish Black Lives Matter would do the same thing, but they're so closely tied to Hillary that nobody would believe it.
Likewise, it's too late for white supremacists to endorse Not Trump.

After she's elected, will you start calling her Clinton, or will you still use her misspelled first name?

Sorry about that.
The source is Houston's most liberal news source.

I actually heard about it on Matt Patrick's news program this morning on the way into work. He challenged the Chronicle to report it. And to their credit, they did.

She won't be elected, but I will still call here Hillary, and I will still mistype stuff. You can read what you want into it. I really don't care. It is done unintentionally and without malice. If I want to insult or disrespect I will do it overtly. What is the point otherwise?

"It's time for our society to address some honest and very, very difficult truths," Trump said Aug.16. "The Democratic Party has failed and betrayed the African-American community. Democratic crime policies, education policies and economic policies have produced only more crime, more broken homes and more poverty."
He's in solid Republican Texas, and the Republicans in Congress have blocked almost everything Obama has tried to do. He's nuts to blame the Democrats.

The policies he refer to go back to LBJ and he is not just talking about the Democratic run city he lives in Houston, he is talking nation wide local up to federal, not just the last 8 years.

I don't see where he said that. Obama can't fix anything thanks to Republican obstruction, and Texas sure isn't going to change anything until after the next election when the Democrats throw out the bums.

Him, Ben Carson, and Omarosa.
Pretty soon, Trump won't be able to hold minority outreach meetings in his hotel room any more, and he'll have to spring for the mini-conference room.

Fivethirtyeight keeps three sets of figures for the election: the polls only, polls plus, and now-cast. The now-cast attempts to predict the odds if the election were held today, based on the polls. The polls only also bases its results on the polls but extrapolates to election day. Polls plus takes historical trends into account, which this election slightly favor the Republicans (the economy is rather neutral and voters tend to want a change after one party has been in office eight years). These three will eventually intersect come election day. It's an algorithm, and they just plug new poll numbers in and recalculate.
Right now (and they update these numbers multiple times a day whenever new polls come in), Hillary is 81.5% on the nowcast, 81.4% on polls only, and 73.6% on polls plus. Those are her lowest numbers since the Democratic convention, indicating some movement to Trump in the last couple of weeks (or that the bounce is wearing off). On a state by state basis, the polls plus and nowcast show Hillary winning every state Obama won in 2012 plus North Carolina, while on polls plus, Trum is 50.1% favored in North Carolina.
