Why so many blacks will vote for Trump?

October 12, 2024

Why so many black Americans will vote for Trump?

In one word: racism. In another word: convenience. Some blacks are as racists against immigrants as Trump and the rest of MAGA supporters. Some blacks are counting on benefiting socioeconomically from Trump's closed border and anti immigration policies. Blacks, as all other humans, votes based on perceived convenience. For many, the perceived convenience is to stick to the tradition of voting for the Democratic party to secure more socioeconomic privileges and protections. For some blacks, voting for Trump looks convenient because they see immigrants as their competition for socioeconomic privileges in our country. Both views make sense. While Harris will carry the vast majority (80%) of the black vote, Trump may get up to 20% of the black vote, which would be a record. We predict that Trump will win these elections by a comfortable electoral college margin higher than the one in 2016. 

Why will Trump win?

Racism against immigration. These elections are not about the economy, which is almost perfect. Trump cannot improve the current economy. From an economic standpoint, the Democrat's "open border" economy is a superior proposition than Trump's closed border and tariffs economy. However, since the vast majority of immigrants are non-white, millions of white Americans are incredibly uncomfortable and living in emotional pain. Since the immigrants do the jobs that poor Americans (both whites and blacks) don't want to do at the current labor market rates, many poor Americans (especially blacks) resent the immigrants as unfair competition. 

In sum, whites see immigrants as racial "pollution" and blacks see immigrants as economic competition. The immigration issue is complicated and doesn't have an easy solution. The "New World" was established on white Christian supremacy. 

It all began on a day like today (October 12th) 532 years ago. On October 12, 1492, Italian navigator Cristoforo Colombo discovered a transatlantic maritime route from Europe to the New World. He thought that he had arrived India, and died thinking that he had found islands off the coast of India. Anyways, after 5 centuries of colonization, many things have changed and political white supremacy has eroded significantly. Blacks are no longer invisible shackles although many remain psychologically oppressed and colonized. Many whites have been unable to realize the American Dream despite five centuries of relative privilege. There are millions of Americans who resent deeply the "fast" erosion of white supremacy and the fast rise of non-white immigration. The emotional pain is such that many fall into the trap of racism and are ready to sell out to our modern-day Hitler, Donald Trump.   

Now you know it. 

Live well. Die better. Enjoy.

Will Tariffs Reduce the National Debt?

Creatix / June 30, 2025 The U.S. national debt has surpassed $34.7 trillion , and the cost of servicing that debt— just the interest payments—has soared to over $1 trillion annually as of mid-2025. This marks a historic shift: we now spend more just paying interest on the National debt than on defense, Medicare, or any single discretionary program. Economists warn that unless fiscal policy changes, interest costs will crowd out critical investments in infrastructure, education, and innovation, deepening the structural debt burden for future generations. From Osama to MAGA OBBA: the path to U.S. bankruptcy. Osama Bin Laden "succeeded" in putting us in a path to bankruptcy. The U.S. national debt began to increase dramatically after 9/11, marking a sharp departure from the budget surpluses of the late 1990s. In response to the terrorist attacks, the U.S. launched costly wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, while also implementing sweeping tax cuts under the Bush administration. These...

Chinese AI Robots Everywhere By the 2050s: Are you Ready?

Creatix / November 8, 2026 AI Robots Everywhere by the 2050s: Are You Ready? By the 2050s , artificial intelligence and robotics could merge into the most transformative household revolution since electricity. Analysts forecast trillions in market value for humanoid and service robots, and billions of units operating globally. The question isn’t if they’ll be everywhere—it’s whether we’re ready for it. The 2050s Robot Boom By mid-century, expect AI robots to clean, cook, carry, and even care. Thanks to exponential progress in AI reasoning, computer vision, and robotics hardware , the machines we see today in factories or labs will become accessible home companions. Costs will plummet as production scales, while software will learn from vast shared data networks—meaning every robot gets smarter as one learns. Economic studies suggest the global humanoid-robot market could exceed $5 trillion by 2050 , transforming domestic life, eldercare, and even education. What smartphones did f...

When will the Tesla bubble burst?

December 11, 2024 When will the Tesla bubble burst?  We don't know Fools rush in. It's impossible to know exactly when the Tesla bubble will finally burst. Unfortunately for us at Creatix, we began shorting Tesla too soon. We are down almost 40% on our position as of today. We are not fooling ourselves thinking that we were ever make money on the short position. We truly doubt that Tesla can go down 40% any time soon.  We would love to add to the short position, but it would exceed our $3,000 limit on the stupid bets that we do for fun. We're not Mr. Beast. We have a very limited budget for ridiculousness. We would love to short Tesla tomorrow morning at the ridiculous share price of $424. Tesla is trading at an incredible 116 times earnings, which gives Tesla a market capitalization of $1.32 Trillion. Elon Musk added today $13.4 billion to his fortune. Yes, $13 billion in one day. Yesterday, he had added $11 billion. Yes, that's $24 billion in 2 days.  Six months ago, ...
