There were, you know, there was a left January 6th hysteria and all this stuff.
Everybody's like, this guy's going to get smoked, forget it.
And all you kept hearing about, if you go back and look, you can actually see the coverage was suburban moms and independents are going to abandon Trump.
And then this moment happens, right?
A friend of mine, you know, this guy too, but he's at a UFC and he calls me and this is like, I don't know, end of 2021, early 2022, doesn't matter, right around that time period.
And he says, Dan, because you're never going to believe this man, but I'm sitting in a green room and he said, I'm telling you, man, the black vote is going to go for Donald Trump in big numbers.
I mean, not a majority, obviously, but in big numbers.
I said, what makes you say that?
And I'd been kind of hearing that too, but anecdotes, you know, anecdotes, single subject designs, aren't that reliable, whatever.
He said, I was talking to a bunch of entertainers, sports figures in the green room and business people, all black.
He said, and they could not stop raving about Donald Trump.
I was kind of blown away by it.
It wound up turning into this online kind of spat with me and this other conservative nice guy who was friendly and all.
But he didn't buy it.
And now you see the raw data, polling numbers.
The Trump coalition is just different.
Hispanic voters, black voters, you're seeing working class males in droves, and most importantly, union workers.
My brother's a local three electrician.
He doesn't know a single person voting for Biden.
