Democrats Flip Map BLUE! But Did Black Voters Actually Win?

The Democrats flipped the political map BLUE, but does that mean anything is actually going to change for Black America? Chef Cream and Chrys Childs join Tahoe, Yesssterday, and Traum for a heated episode of So Shameless , breaking down the election results, Donald Trump’s political future, the Democratic Party’s strategy, and whether Black voters should really be celebrating.

Everybody is celebrating the Democratic victories, but Cream and Chrys aren’t convinced there’s much to celebrate just yet. Did Democrats actually win because they presented a better plan for America, or did voters simply want to stop Republicans?

In this episode, we discuss: Democrats flip the map blue! What did they actually win, and how much power will they have over the next two years?

Donald Trump’s future: What happens to Trump now, and does he deserve to be called the worst president in American history? Black women vs.

Black men: Why are Black women receiving so much recognition for voting Democratic at a reported 92% when Black men reportedly voted Democratic at 85%? Brooklyn politics: Yesssterday lives in a Republican-voting section of Crown Heights.

What does that say about the neighborhood’s political divide? Political disengagement: Are people who refuse to participate in politics hurting the very communities they claim to care about?

New York’s loyalty to Democrats: Is New York being taken for granted because Democrats can count on its votes without delivering enough for Black communities? The next two years: Should Democrats focus on protecting democracy, passing legislation, or aggressively challenging Republicans?

The Supreme Court: Can Supreme Court justices be impeached, and should Democrats fight with the same intensity Republicans have shown? Hakeem Jeffries and AIPAC: Do his political relationships and campaign contributions raise questions about whose interests he represents?

From Black political power and voter loyalty to the future of the Democratic Party, this conversation asks a question that goes beyond red versus blue: If Black voters keep helping Democrats win elections, when do Black communities get to see the return on their investment? Tap in with Tahoe, Yesssterday, Traum, Chef Cream, and Chrys Childs for another unapologetic conversation on So Shameless.
