#1 We are their outgroup. Of course they are allowed to use ugly words that they deem off-limits to us. That's what you do to the outgroup. Don't expect them to abide by the rules they make: those rules are for US to follow.

#2 What is this person's job, exactly?
Is she a reporter?
If so, then why is she so rancid with vile and hostility and bias?
If not, then what expertise does she have to offer, on what subject, gained how?

#3 She's got blood coming out of her ... wherever.

#4 First, she charmingly assumes that black Americans have no right to form their own political opinions and belong to the Democrats,

Well, they did, for the first four score and seven years. Then the Republicans freed them.

#5 Liberals don't fear that blacks will vote for Trump. They fear blacks won't show up at all and they need them. They need the black vote badly.

#6 The Dems are afraid of a preference cascade - that moment when people realize that instead of being a single individual with a forbidden opinion, that pretty much everyone thinks the same way. The problem is that when you hear the rumble, the avalanche has already started. Kanye West is just the loud, visible tip of the iceberg, if I may stir my metaphors.

#7 #5 Bingo. Low turnout for Hillary by African-Americans explains Trump's victory in OH and WI.

Exceptionally high turnout for Obama by African-Americans in OH and other battleground states explains his easy victory in 2012.

If A-As are NOT excited about the Dem nominee, Trump wins-- period.

Hence the chatter about running Big Mike. The smarter Dems know they're screwed.

#8 Without the black vote at 90% or better, Democrats cannot win national elections. Period.

#9 ^ True-- allegiance is necessary, but it's not enough. Dems also need A-As to actually show up and vote. I forget the number but if A-A turnout in Cleveland and Milwaukee falls below a certain threshold percentage, the Dem presidential candidate will lose OH and WI.
