Both parties are still sifting through the data from the 2024 election.
There is some tough medicine in the numbers for the Left.
And one surprising number from Trump’s election win scares Democrats to death.
Donald Trump’s success in winning over black men
Donald Trump put together the most diverse GOP coalition ever, which led to the most decisive Republican election win since 1980.
The Trump campaign bet it could win over more than 20 percent of black men.
Throughout the election, polls showed Trump doing better than any Republican in decades with black men.
Democrats and the media ignored these warning signs.
Yet exit polls showed Trump winning 21 percent of black men.
And Trump’s success with his voting bloc led to Trump carrying the commonwealth of Pennsylvania, which proved to be the checkmate on Kamala Harris.
The Philadelphia Inquirer performed an after-election analysis of the vote in Philadelphia and found that Trump improved his vote share in 92 percent of the city’s majority-Black precincts.
“According to an Inquirer analysis of election results, Democrats performed worse in 649 of the 688 majority-Black precincts in Philadelphia while Trump grew his share of votes in 635 majority-Black precincts as compared with 2020,” the Inquirer reported.
Some of Kamala Harris’ underperforming with black voters in Philadelphia owed to lower enthusiasm as turnout dropped.
“The county’s total voter turnout was 727,595, down 2.9% from the 749,317 voters it saw in 2020,” Decision Desk election analyst Michael Pruser wrote on X.
But turnout being down didn’t fully explain Trump’s success.
Trump won 26 percent of black men in Pennsylvania, which was five points higher than his national total.
“In Pennsylvania however, 26% of Black men, more than a quarter, voted for Trump according to exit polling that surveys voters as they’re leaving the polls. Seventy-two percent voted for Harris,” the Inquirer added.
Philadelphia Inquirer report shows huge boost in Trump numbers
Trump also received more than two-and-a-half times the number of votes from black men than he did in 2020.
“Trump’s support among Black men in Pennsylvania was higher than the national average, where 21% of Black men voted for the Republican. It’s also a staggering leap in support for the president-elect compared with 2020, when exit polling found Trump garnered support from just 10% of Black men in Pennsylvania,” the Inquirer report continued.
The media made fun of Trump for saying illegal aliens were taking “black jobs.”
But Trump’s message of mass deportations and policies that would return the economy to the level of prosperity Americans experienced in Trump’s first four years in office proved appealing to Americans of all races.
Democrats thought they could keep black voters in the fold by screaming racism and Kamala Harris rolling out a platform of policies targeted at black men.
Democrats paid the price for taking black voters for granted and only caring about them once every four years.
Trump offered policies to improve the lives of Americans, whereas Kamala Harris and her allies tried to play identity politics.
Barack Obama showed up in Pittsburgh and lectured black men that they were sexists and race traitors for not supporting Kamala Harris.
And the 2024 election was a 100 percent repudiation of the Democrat Party on every level, from their policies to how they communicated to voters they assumed were part of their core base.
