    Trump says "What have you got to lose!?!" to blacks and people say he's right and he's engaging with them.

    People say "What have you got to lose!?!" when talking about third-party candidates and it is dismissed out of hand.

    Look at surveys of younger black voters. Again when did you ever hear a Republican having a direct conversation with blacks about problems in their communities? They were afraid to touch the 3rd rail of politics

    I know you know the difference between a commentator and a news anchor. Please show it.

    I do. I also know if I'm running a news network, in that situation I'd give the employee one choice: The campaign or his job with me.

    I guess FOX News has higher ethics than Sports Illustrated, we now know.

    I linked a 538 article yesterday that mentioned an ABC poll from last week...2% of black millennials support Trump. And Trump is not speaking to blacks. He is using blacks to get to the suburban women that think he is racist. By "speaking to blacks" they might be more apt to vote Trump..."see he isn't racist".

    Nah, it's not even that subtle. He is telling his base that black Americans live in chaos and misery and that he'll keep them away from the wonderful safe world of white people.

    That's the world that white, liberal, democrats created.

    The most segregated places in America ar cities -- like yours and mine -- run by democrats.

    The neighborhoods and the schools are segregated.

    And crime is only an issue when it pops up in good neighborhoods.

    If this is his signature issue, why doesn't he care enough to know even the basics about ISIS? His answer, of course, would be that he's not going to give away his plan. But you can speak intelligently and coherently about the problem without telegraphing your solution.

    Smart people trust him on this, though. Oh, well.
