I agree with you, but I'm not going to put all the blame on white women. Yes, they undoubtedly voted their race before their rights. I'm not going to say "I told you so."

However, and this is a big however, too many black people stayed home in 2016. After the euphoria of voting for Barack Obama (but forgetting him during the midterms) when no one black was on the road to the White House, they stayed home. They didn't care enough to bother. Trump won Michigan by 10,000 votes and change in 2016. We could have prevented that. He won Pennsylvania by 44,000 and change in 2016. There were more than 44,000 in Philadelphia alone who could have changed that outcome if they'd have bothered to leave the house.

Yes, white women voted for their interests, but we did nothing for ours. Again, I'm not going to say "I told you so." I am going to say, however, that you'd better know what to do next time. Complaining is easy.
