Black people are right to vote for Dems; Black incomes improve substantially under D admins. https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/trump-s-suburban-lifestyle-tweet-mixes-race-class-here-s-ncna1235234
white people arguably vote against their own interests in voting R, since white incomes also increase under D admins more than under R. https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/trump-s-suburban-lifestyle-tweet-mixes-race-class-here-s-ncna1235234
however, Black incomes increase more, which is why white ppl vote R. They want to maintain the racial wealth gap. They vote or R to harm Black people. https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/trump-s-suburban-lifestyle-tweet-mixes-race-class-here-s-ncna1235234
Rs don't want to hear this because they don't want to admit they're racist.
Some on the left don't want to admit it because they are invested in the argument that Ds and Rs aren't any different.

but you can still criticize and dislike Ds even if they are substantially better than Ds. https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/trump-s-suburban-lifestyle-tweet-mixes-race-class-here-s-ncna1235234
people claim wealth decreased under obama, but this is generally because of the recession he inherited (the topline doesn't exactly capture the nuance o the article.) https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2019/sep/10/stanley-greenberg/did-most-americans-lose-wealth-income-under-barack/
you don't really need to be a genius here; Bush oversaw the great recession; Trump created a massive economic collapse.
you can also point out that Democrats have done way to little to shore up the safety net and help poor people, allowing GOP a lot of leeway to crush the disadvantaged when they get into office.
but Black people aren't deceived or foolish when they vote D. They do much better under D administrations.
it's also just a weird time to insist there is no difference when Trump just deliberately neglected to deal with a pandemic that has killed 175-300k in large part because he believed it would only hurt Dem cities, ie Black people.
like, "Ds are better for the country than Rs" has never been less controversial, even if you think Ds are very bad (they often are!)
