is a shame.
If the pool of voters increased dramatically (which it seems it did), then of course it will increase among all groups. The number can increase and it doesn't have to mean Trump gained support, in fact the increased number can indicate Trump lost support.
For example, Like lets say the voting pool is up 20% across the board. So if 100 people voted in 2016 now its 120. and if 15 black people voted in 2016 then 18 black people voted in 2020. If 3 black people voted for Trump in 2016 and 4 black people voted in 2020, yeah the raw number is up since 2016, but now since 18 black people voted in 2020 the percentage of black people voting for trump is actually down.
