(ThyBlackMan.com) Did you hear the word “Obamacare” during the Republican convention? It was once President Donald Trump’s worst enemy. Then it got more popular, as people who had not been able to get insurance in the past then could. In this pandemic, it has been essential. The idea of taking ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) As a Donald Trump supporter, I don’t casually dismiss the polls that consistently show he’s behind. But I am cautiously optimistic he’s going to win, for many reasons.
