Over at MSNBC, Zerlina Maxwell decided that the problem with the Iowa caucus is that the Democrats in Iowa are racist. And she was saying, quote, the reason why you see a drop in turnout, because I guess the vote was kind of low turnout in Iowa, she says I'm just speculating here, it could be perhaps the white children are not in cages. So the suggestion here is that the white Iowan Democrats, a lot of them must be racist because they don't care about kids in cages if they're not white like that. Now she's just speculating but what's important is she's not speculating about Republicans, which you'd expect. So the Democrats continue to eat their own and they're really suffering after that Iowa debacle. And it's even funnier now because it looks like Bernie's gonna win the popular vote in Iowa while Buttigieg gets the delegates. I mean that's just perfect. Talk about kissing your sister result. There's nothing to be happy about there.

Let's see what else we got here. This is what Van Jones tweeted. He said wake up folks, the Iowa caucus was a debacle followed by a strong State of the Union. So one of the things I like about Van Jones, and I like it a lot, is that he's one of the few people who opposes Trump politically who can actually say something that Trump did well. It's weird. He's so unusual because he can actually speak objectively even though you know exactly what he wants, his preferences are clear, and yet he can still talk objectively. It's very rare. So he's saying it's a strong State of the Union with no qualifier. Strong. Strong speech laying out Trump's strategy to win, which includes, and this is Van Jones' interpretation, that includes going for black voters. This was a warning shot from Trump campaign to liberals and we need to take this very seriously in order to win.

So Van Jones has noticed that in the campaign ads from the president and the speech itself are very clear that he's going after the black vote. There's no longer any doubt about it. But here's the problem. Here's why Trump is going to succeed in getting more of the black vote than probably most people expect. Trump explicitly puts African Americans first. And I'll give you some examples. Democrats do not put black Americans first. And I'll give you some examples to make the point. When Trump brags about the economy, what does he usually say first? Black unemployment is better than it's ever been. He doesn't always say it first but eighty-five percent of the time he says it first. It's the first thing he says. Doesn't that show you that it's a priority? He's bragging about it. It's the first thing out of his mouth. Black unemployment. It's getting better. Second thing. And by the way, do you ever hear the Democrats bragging about black unemployment being great? You don't. How about the opportunity zones that Tim Scott led and the administration approved? These are primarily people of color and of course this probably weighted toward the black community. Which white people have got an opportunity zone? Did any of you white people get your own opportunity zone? You didn't. And now I'm not saying it's a good idea or a bad idea. It's probably a good idea. But it's a clear example of putting the black community in this country first, right? There's no Jewish community opportunity center and there's not one for women. There's not one for white people. There's basically the one there is, which is targeted at areas that are high population of black people. And what about immigration? President Trump puts black America first because they are the most impacted by the competition of labor coming in. He puts them first and says I'm gonna build a wall even no matter how much this costs me politically. I'm gonna put you first. What are the Democrats put first? The immigrants. Not Americans. Coming in, they'll give them health care, etc.

I think this is just the cleanest play you've ever seen. Trump consistently puts the black community first. Whatever. Oh, and including the prison reform. Was prison reform primarily to help white people? No, not at all. It's very clearly weighted toward helping people of color. But it's weighted that way. So Trump has consistently put black Americans first even above other Americans. Democrats consistently, and very consistently, put immigrants, non-Americans, first. And then after immigrants, who's their next priority after immigrants? I want to see in the comments if you tell me. If you're the Democrats, immigrants are your top priority, who's second? Women, right? Where are black people on the priority of Democrats? Not in the top two. Not in the top two based on actions and policies. So I think Trump could have an amazing, amazing successful time. The strategy is right on. He's got Candace Owens has been the superpower forever pushing this. The Kanye effect has to be included. I think this is going to happen.

So when Van Jones says you know wake up this is their strategy, it is his strategy. And what are you going to say if you're a black person and you're watching President Trump consciously and methodically putting you at a high priority so he can win your vote? Why should you be afraid of that? Who in the world should be afraid of Trump serving the black community better than it's ever been served before? I know, Van Jones, maybe you should vote for him if he is the one helping.
