Biden Tells Black Voters If They Are Undecided, ‘Then You Ain’t Black’

Former Vice President Joe Biden seems to be taking his black support for granted.

“If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re voting for me or Trump, then you ain’t black,” the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee said in a Friday morning appearance on The Breakfast Club podcast.

.@JoeBiden: "If you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black." @cthagod: "It don't have nothing to do with Trump, it has to do with the fact — I want something for my community." @breakfastclubam pic.twitter.com/endvWnOIV2

“It don’t have nothing to do with Trump, it has something to do with the fact I want something for my community,” said the show’s host, Lenard Larry McKlevey, also known as “Charlamagne tha God.”

Thoughout the primary, Biden rode on a wave of black support to carry him through the crowded contest and save his campaign with a game-changing victory in South Carolina where black voters make up more than half the state’s Democratic electorate. Biden carried two-third’s of the black vote on election day landing him a nearly 30-point victory resurrecting a sunken campaign going into Super Tuesday where Biden began to finish up securing the nomination.

Now Biden is expecting this key bloc of reliably Democratic voters to stick with him through November. One way Biden might seek to retain his base for the general includes putting a woman of color on the ticket. Biden has already pledged to pick a female running mate.

“I’m not acknowledging anybody who is being considered, but I guarantee you, there are multiple black women being considered. Multiple,” Biden said.

Two of those women likely include former presidential rival and California Democratic Sen. Kamala Harris who eviscerated Biden on the June debate stage last year over bussing and imaginary Georgia Gov. Stacey Abrams who is taking a break from her made-up duties running the state to actively campaign for the number two spot.

Abrams however, has never even won a statewide contest casting doubt on her ability to help pull of a nationwide victory let alone run the White House in Biden’s absence, who is 77-years-old.

[Here are five reasons former Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura is more qualified to run for president than Abrams.]

Waiting in vain for the wokeholes to pounce on this as whitesplaining.

How insulting

One would think so, but if they had no problem with the “put y’all back in chains” remark, Sleepy will probably skate on his one too.

The radio show is typical rap trash,gossip and liberal garbage politics but how could they not laugh their ass off at Joe the “saltine”?

“He ain’t in no ways tired.”

And that’s a bottle of hot sauce in his pants.

Biden thinks he is being hip and down home with those kinds of comments, but it comes off as a politically tone-deaf Mrs. Malaprop.

Joe’s got the jerk thing down to an art form.

You are on to something!   We need someone to use the new technology to morph Biden onto Steve Martin's film, "The Jerk".   It would win a conservative academy award!

Am I black enough?

It depends on your voting preferences.
