    People are free to vote for whatever candidate they want.

    The days of 95% of black voters supporting the democrats no matter what are ending....... likewise the days of 75% of white voters voting Republican are starting to end as well.

    People are viewing voting as a more individual choice.

    Having said that, Trump's rhetoric has been terrible towards minorities and marginalized groups of people...... many black people have been marginalized as well, and as a result the overwhelming majority of black people will vote for Biden........ likely even a higher percentage than those that voted for Clinton four years ago.

    A less racist/sexist Republican candidate that made efforts to appeal to black voters at the federal level could do fairly well in the next few general elections.

    Everyone wants to define what being black is, or how black persons are supposed to think or believe and that is oppressive.

    You also have to realize that Republicans risk alienating white conservative voters if they appeal to black voters. It is all a cost/benefit analysis.

    Republicans would have a much easier time selling this if they weren't actively working to keep African Americans from voting. And that is from the mouths of Republicans themselves.
