1) Yes, many many many.
2) She did make it into the Oval Office. She was VP.
3) Better we all survive or thrive with someone who doesn’t look like us, than suffer or perish with someone who does.
4) Kamala preferred to lose on her own terms, than win by embracing normality and sanity. She does not regret open borders or massive green spending sparking extreme inflation. She’d do it all over again, and just on that basis alone, shouldn’t be POTUS.
5) Reasonable minds differ on whether she is actually black to begin with. Arguably, she’s 1/4 black, 3/4 Indian.
Her dad is Indo-Caribbean. He’s descendant from Indian slave owners. Read a book.

I don’t know if y’ll January 6th supporters are real or just trollers, but if y’ll are real, I sincerely appreciate that you all have made yourselves known. I'm a big believer that being black is not a monolith. Although I dont agree with your politics, this post reminded me that all skinfolk ain't kinfolk.

OP: You just said you voted for the January 6th leader. Whether you like it or not, by supporting the January 6th leader, you are loudly and proudly supportingJanuary 6th. As you know, voting records are public records. So, in a weird way, it’s good that you’re dealing with this privately now. It’ll only help when you have to deal with it publicly later. Especially if you plan to work with black or women clients, employers, non-profits, politicians, grant programs, community service organizations, etc.
I hope you never know peace to be honest.
No problem! Glad to add to your anxiety.
At this point you are not a conservative if you voted for a fascist open white supremacist, just self hating. No one is going to console you, deal with your self hatred and all the other people that will be hurt because of it.
Thanks for your view. I completely disagree, of course, and I am absolutely still a conservative (leaning liberal on a few social issues) but I guess I came to the wrong group if I was looking for other people to relate with me. Honestly kind of sad.

I'm happy to hear shame is finally making a comeback.
Got it, thanks.
You’re a certified clown. 🤡 Kick rocks and stop your self loathing pity party. I am also black and I cannot stand when black people vote wholly against their own or their demographics interest then want people to feel sorry for their “guilt”.
Thanks, friend. Not looking for anyone to feel sorry for me; was hoping there might be other black conservatives out there who can relate. The phrase “we are not a monolith” comes to mind here, and the notion that I must vote for the candidate that the majority of other black people vote for to align myself with them is frankly absurd.
I might leave this group, bc how did you vote for so many anti Black policies as a Black person??? Have you read project 2025??? It’s giving FED… or terribly unintelligent… and I want to associate with neither
I suggest you send a firmwide email asking for support. Please report back on the results.
So… I see the populace at KE is still downing coke and meth.
It is evident that people did not even glance over project 2025. Trump may have said that he does not know what it is but pay attention to future policy decisions and what is in project 2025. The decision was not based on voting for a candidate because of their race. While I hold conservative views on certain issues like border security and gender identity, I could not support a candidate who would appoint additional federal judges, potentially including two Supreme Court justices, and possibly reverse many of the protections that are currently in place.
I am moderate, but since I live in NY, I did not vote for either candidate. Kamala didn’t win me over on policies, and the democratic party’s group think is exhausting. Identity politics really don’t affect my day to day life in the same way that economic policies do. I really don’t care about your pronouns. I really don’t care about your moral superiority if your day to day life doesn’t reflect your “values.” At the end of the day, I just want me and mine to be good because that’s all I can control.
The democratic party has lost its way severely by hanging their hat on social issues, but not providing sound solutions. Housing and feeding undocumented immigrants does not solve the immigration problem. Liking gay people doesn’t do much for them if they can’t afford groceries or gas. Voting republican didn’t stop republican voters from protecting abortion rights.
Kinda sick of the virtue signals that do nothing to solve the problem. At least under Trump, some of us will be able to take more money home to invest in ourselves and build generational wealth.
And we all work with racists and sexists and that’s just life. Voting for Kamala is not gonna transform them into something else.
There were so many things that went into Kamala losing so badly. Forget the economy and inflation. Forget the fact that she didn’t win a primary and was installed the summer before the election. Forget the fact that she couldn’t articulate what she’d do as POTUS. Forget the fact that she’s already part of the current administration and people wanted change. Forget the fact that she ran her entire campaign on ab0rti0n and not being Trump. She failed bEcAUse sHe’s bLaCK! 🤡🤡🤡
America has spoken! Everything is not racial!
Maybe you felt disrespected, but don’t speak for me.
