I disagree with you
lol
ITT I learned that African American Likely Voters have a strangely positive attitude toward PI lawyers and junk mail.
I guess this is the Trump counterpart to the Crooked Hillary thread, so I deem it the best place to post this article about the unsavory and often illegal practices of the Trump Model Agency:

It seems like most of this stuff is probably not that out of the ordinary for the industry which overall is super-sleazy. That said, certainly there is a big hypocrisy angle here for Trump since he (at least this week) has such a strong stance on illegal immigrants stealing American jobs. If he wasn't importing all these illegal Russian honeys maybe our corn-fed Iowa beauty queens could get a shot, amiright?
PPP poll
TRUMP FAV/UNFAV with African American voters is:
Fav: 0%
UnFav: 97%
Undecided 3%
LOL
Gotta work on those undecideds. Need at least a third of them to swing Trumps way.
Friedersdorf takes down Dennis Prager and, by implication, the rest of the Christians For Trump: http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2016/09/what-supporting-donald-trump-did-to-dennis-pragers-principles/498905/

I know the editors of CP to be good evangelical Christians, but they made the same mistake many evangelicals are liable to make. They said they were actually tempted by Trump's offer to "Vote for me, and I will give you Supreme Court picks and abolish the Johnson Amendment."
Trump's "tempting" offer is remarkably like another fabricated by incredibly dumb people with an agenda two millennia ago … when the Devil offered Jesus the power to rule over all the kingdoms of the world with justice and mercy, if only Christ would bow down to the Devil. American Christians should not take a deal Jesus rejected.

It profits a man nothing to give his soul in exchange for the entire world ... how can we possibly consider doing so in exchange for Trump's empty promise of Supreme Court nominees?
It can't be because of abortion. When George W. Bush was President, 2/3 of the Supreme Court were Republican appointees, and Republicans controlled the White House and all of Congress. Yet Roe remains. We cannot possibly be so naïve as to believe Donald Trump — who until he decided to run as a Republican supported partial birth abortion without restriction — would do more.
I sure hope it's not because of "religious freedom" or the fear I've heard that if we get a liberal Court, Christianity will decline in America. I absolutely reject the fear that underlies the Supreme Court idolatry taking hold in some of our churches. If the Church needs the Court to save souls and empower a faithful witness — both spoken and lived — then we are truly lost. Christ promised us a cross and the Holy Spirit as our advocate, not tax breaks for our business and a worldly Court to defend our beliefs.

With regard to Trump’s taxes, he has received the NY State STAR tax rebate for the past two years. This tax reduction is automatically given to anyone making less than $500,000 in reported income... The STAR rebate has not been revoked as far as I've seen (it is granted electronically). Trump is a billionaire claiming a tax credit meant for middle-class New Yorkers, because of depreciation rules for his real-estate holdings. I'm sure that's a big part of why he doesn't release his tax returns.
