The murder of Trayvon Martin, probably, specifically when Obama said that if had a son he'd look like Trayvon.

A lot of people were fine voting for a black president, but not a Black president.

Id say Ferguson was really when they lost that voter

Hey, don't blame this all on me! /s

Obama won those same voters literally the year Trayvon Martin happened

Oh I misremembered when it happened then, I could've sworn it was 2013.

This. These were white voters who felt good electing a Black man in 2008 and 2012, they wanted to show their children that they were racially tolerant and colorblind. That they are not their grandparents or great-grandparents. A lot of people voted for Obama because they truly wanted a post-racial America. Truly, truly. They thought that would be the uniting force of the 2000s after the post-9/11 unity cratered around 2003-05.

Obama and BLM were created and BLM/woke people didn't do any favors saying "white man bad, white man evil should die out".

That is what turned them to Trump. A lot of them are not political either.

This first paragraph is an excellent analysis.
