Trump Campaign Will Open Storefronts in Swing States to Reach Black Voters (Published 2020)
The centers will register voters, sell campaign merchandise and promote policies that have benefited African-Americans, the campaign said.www.nytimes.com
WASHINGTON — In its latest attempt to win over African-American voters, President Trump's 2020 campaign said Wednesday it would lease 15 retail properties in predominately black neighborhoods across swing states like Florida and Pennsylvania, where it will build welcoming "community centers" that sell merchandise, register voters and spread the word about Trump policies that have helped black communities.On Wednesday afternoon, senior Trump campaign officials offered reporters a tour through a mock-up storefront it built inside its campaign headquarters in Arlington, Va.Hoodies bearing the slogan "WOKE" were on display for sale in the mock community center. A large television screen played a stream of testimonials from black voters talking about why they supported Mr. Trump. Posters featuring smiling African-American supporters highlighted the administration's work overhauling the criminal justice system, its funding of historically black colleges and universities, and the country's unemployment rate, the lowest in 50 years.Colorful pamphlets advertised Mr. Trump as "a builder of communities and the American Dream," and a rendering showed a possible exterior design for a center inside of what looked like a mall.The centers, which will be about the size of a small storefront, are planned for Jacksonville, Orlando, Tampa, and Miami, Fla.; Atlanta, Ga.; Detroit, Mich.; Columbus and Cleveland, Ohio; Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, Pa.; Charlotte, Raleigh and Greensboro, N.C.; and Milwaukee, Wis."It's a woke concept," said Katrina Pierson, a senior campaign adviser. "For decades you have had a community that has been controlled by the Democratic Party. Republicans haven't even gone into deliver their message."Mr. Trump won just 8 percent of African-American voters in the 2016 election. Senior campaign officials said they are spending millions of dollars on the new retail spaces in order to increase his support among black voters. Trump advisers say they do not need to increase his support significantly to make a difference in a handful of critical battleground states in November.
This bitch...
As an Oregonian, let's include Nevada, they are cool.
California x Oregon x Washington x Nevada would slay

Sorry for the naivety, but is this legal if someone (Snow Tha Product) owns the Trademark, specifically for the branding of apparel?

Biden was straight up lying about Obama's statements but that's why you shouldn't let him speak for a black man.
The Republican party shows a remarkable lack of concern for trademark and copyright when self-promoting (see: all the campaigns that have had their hands slapped for using music against the wishes of the bands / songwriters).
Obama speaking in Cuba at the end of his Presidency != Bernie running for President.
John Oliver requests that his comments here not be taken out of context.
they're equal in the same regard that it's offensive to think it's a story more deserving than a million other subjects. they couldn't even ask a climate change question for god's sake.
when obama said it, republicans said the same things democrats are saying now. should be ashamed. buttigieg and biden insulting a healthy outlook on american foreign policy is the bigger controversy by far.
cuba has fucking better lifespans than the USA! and it's been under an authoritarian government for decades! the USA's school systems are crumbling but somehow cuba manages to get its shit together to pay for them! imagine being a presidential candidate and not being able to acknowledge these factual realities.
Funny, I was just reading about Yoho yesterday. He represents Gainesville (UF) and part of Jacksonville and is retiring this year. It's a ridiculously gerrymandered district of course, but I'm still a bit surprised a major college town and the burbs of a major city aren't at least competitive. Guess that's FL for you.
Eastern OR is completely gone (save for the well-to-do liberals in Bend), but come on man Eastern WA has Ellensburg, Yakima, and Spokane as islands of blue in a sea of shit red. You wanna leave us to the wolves? 😭
I'm in on this.
Sorry, bruh. If you like the small-town life, you could always use the money from of Pacifica's generaous re-settlement package to build Aberdeen or Hoquiam into Yakima West or something.
You should watch the Chris Hayes clip posted a couple pages back in this thread regarding this. It's crazy how much traction this issue got while Trump is getting away with his praise of Modi.
He made a formal apology on air. Though minutes later went in on Sanders about his Cuba comment, so he learned about as much as Trump did from impeachment.
Not sure why that matters much. Obama will be heavily campaigning for the nominee more than likely, right? Especially in a place like Florida? If that's the case, then it seems Obama should stay out of FL since old GOP Cuban voters will very much dislike him.

If you guys leave we're out on the east coast, too. Everything New York and above will go. It will be named New(er) England. Hold that shit, Boris.
I guess New Jersey can come, too
I don't see how he can resist. This is not a man with strong impulse control.
I wonder what margin Biden needs to get in SC to get the momentum he needs.
Clemson's poll has him +18 over 2nd place Steyer.
Clemson In 2016 had Hillary +50 over Sanders. The actual win was +47.5.

They had both Chris Mathews and Carville on last night and both of their tones were totally different. Basically just offering analysis without any of the massive hyperbole. Chris even defended Bernie to one Bloomberg rep saying he never said anything like that.
It's kind of hard to take that poll seriously since they polled more than 2x the number of people aged 65+ who voted in 2016 and 1/5 the amount of 17-29.

Rumor has it Yoshi was studying linguistics before he met Dr. Mario. Now the only words out of his mouth are "Yoshi" and "yum"
Coincidence? I think not...
Mario is Sicilian, that's getting too questionable for Stephen Nosferatu Miller.
I can't lie, this is something that I have spent too much time really thinking about. In order for it all to work I think the northeast would need to bring Maryland along as well, and that brings along Delaware. Then you can't deny that a state like Pennsylvania would go a long ways in terms of resources and diversifying the economy. At that point, maybe we can swing Virginia, I'd hate to leave them behind just as they're getting their shit together.
Super Tuesday feels like it isn't going to be close
Good, let it end
Great fucking news. Biden should probably underperform too since he's broke.
