A group of Black men left MSNBC stunned on Friday after they explained why former President Trump appeals to them over President Joe Biden.
MSNBC correspondent Trymaine Lee met with the voters at a barbershop in Charleston, South Carolina, asking them what “appeal” Trump has among their demographic over Biden.
“Money,” they said.
“Donald Trump has a reputation of being the money man,” voter Anthony Freeman said.
“I just think that Donald Trump, in spite of all the craziness he may have in his head, reading some of the things that he talks about what business I can kind of agree with,” fellow voter Thomas Murray told MSNBC.
“Because I’m trying to grow my business.”
“As far as Biden, I haven’t seen Biden really care about business like that.”
“And my concern is having my business so that I can build generational wealth so my kids can see and have something to take upon when I’m not here,” he added.
Another voter in the focus group, Justin Brown, said people “admire the persona” and “want to be him.”

“They want to enjoy the perks that he has. He seems to always be able to circumvent the rules,” Brown explained.
The MSNBC reporter asked whether there were people in their “orbit” who were either voting for Trump or thinking about voting for him
“A lot of my friends are obviously my age, so we’re a little younger,” Givens said.
“We’ve only voted once, you know, for president, and Trump is kinda all we know,” Givens said. “They’re like, ‘Well, we’re broke with Biden.”
“We weren’t with Trump.’ And that’s kind of the only thing that I’m hearing over, and over again… With Trump, we had money.’ Well, okay, I hear you guys. But personally, morally I couldn’t see myself.”
Lee then told MSNBC’s Katy Tur that there were “three buckets” of voters among Black men in South Carolina.
“Those who are planning on voting for Joe Biden again even though they’re not excited, those who are considering voting for Donald Trump and those who will sit out all together and take some sort of off ramp out of the process,” Lee said.
...pretty sure the cat is out of the bag. The stigma of only being able to vote D is gone. Biden was a really poor choice for them. They see the price of food, gas, along with many illegal aliens in their communities - crime, plus competition.
Then they see Trump’s mug shot, the system being against him. Right or wrong, they identify with that. There’s nothing they identify as positive with Biden.
I think you’ll see a large swing in votes, the main question is how much?
You are being replaced Brothers.
Mr. Brown seems confused. It's BiDUHn who has all the free passes.
Not sure the pubs can fix this. It has to come from within the dim party itself. Defectors sick of the radical leftists crap.
Which has been slowly happening.
Democrats have made a judgmental error.
There are now millions of successful black businessmen and women all across this country.
Gone are the stereotypes of the poor downtrodden black family living in generational poverty. Yes, there are still some, but they are not the majority any more.
There are millionaire athletes and business owners that want to stay that way.
Biden and his cronies want to take it all away................
That’s the “policing for prodt” that goes on in so many counties.
That should be the GOP mantra.
"Oh no, uh uh, you votin' for Kamala. I gots your absentee ballot the uthuh day and it gone back for Biden. You go down there on elecshun day and cause a stink about it and they gonna find your warrants from yo' beach trip."
