I remember when he was being out polled among blacks by David Duke.

Hillary, you've got some 'splainin to do!

But seriously, the other poll is more noteworthy. Rasmussen doesn't have a good accuracy record and leans Republican quite a bit.

Another poster above suggests that Trump wins if he gets 10% of the black vote. Not true. A Republican can't win the W.H. without a decent showing of the female vote AND a decent showing in hispanics (I guess black could substitute for hispanics...not sure). Ask #bindersfullofwomen Romney. There aren't enough white men to put them in office, and they can't get enough of the minority vote, so they need their female vote that they ordinarily get (I guess that's white women, but since white women aren't singled out as a group, it's hard to say).

but have another hit, if you would like.

PS - just having fun with that.... the logic of your post is sound; the source of your information, however, is highly suspect.

USC/LA Times poll suggested that Trump had amassed nearly 20 percent support of Black voters.

It's ironic how leftists used to lecture GOP'ers/conservatives on not being able to attract more black votes, and now, it appears that is exactly what is happening and the left is all upset about it.

I said a long time ago that if American conservatives were ever able to get a sizeable black vote, say half, you would see the left begin to show contempt for blacks and treat them accordingly. I think blacks are beginning to see what the left thinks of them. By allowing massive illegal immigration, the poorest among us have the most to lose.
