11:54Now Playing#WeTriedToTellYa ... The digital kibosh was in full effect during the 2016 presidential campaign and election. Donald Trump's campaign profiled and categorized 3.5 million Black Americans as "Deterrence" because they didn't want them to vote.
Channel4.com reports:
"Channel 4 News has exclusively obtained a vast cache of data used by Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign on almost 200 million American voters.
It reveals that 3.5 million Black Americans were categorized by Donald Trump’s campaign as ‘Deterrence’ voters they wanted to stay home on election day." []
