Black voters in Milwaukee (WI) list complaints on Biden, Democratic Party ahead of 2024: 'We're damned anyways'

Black voters in Milwaukee are feeling uninspired and potentially not motivated to vote for President Biden in advance of 2024, according to a CNN report Friday.

Joanna Brooks, who owns a yoga studio in Glendale, said that the Democratic Party has taken Black voters for granted.

"Black people in general, I think, tend to be pretty loyal to the Democratic Party," Brooks said. "Sometimes I wonder, just based on how that party has performed thus far for people so far, if they should continue to be."

"I hear people saying [that] they're not gonna vote," Milwaukee voter Eric Jones said of the 2024 presidential election. "That's my fear. They see [Biden and former President Donald Trump], and they're gonna say, ‘Screw it. We're damned anyways.'"

"When the factories and the manufacturing left, jobs left," he told CNN. "When jobs leave and opportunities leave, then you have certain things that are domino effects."

Jones said that the recipe for popularity as a political candidate was simple: "You bring opportunities, you bring jobs, you get votes. Plain and simple."

When asked who he would choose between Trump and Biden, Devonta Johnson, a canvasser with Black Leaders Organizing for Communities (BLOC), admitted that would be a difficult choice to make.

*SNIP*

"The Democratic Party has been failing epically at reaching this demographic of Black men — and that’s sad to say," W. Mondale Robinson, founder of the Black Male Voter Project, told the Post. "Black men are your second-most stable base overwhelmingly, and yet you can’t reach them in a way that makes your work easier."

Robinson told the outlet that Black men are "sporadic or non-voters" in multiple battleground states.

Dem bosses to always Dem black voters:
What we have here is a failure to communicate. Get back onto the Dem Plantation and hush up now.

the Rats know who you are, if you’re likely to vote or not, and whether or not you have voted. They’ll save you the trouble and vote on your behalf.

That is exactly what they did to me in 2016 in Fairfax County, Va. And I’m not Black! I just voted for Hillary in the Dem primary as part of Operation Chaos. Google search has demographic sites saying I’m a Rat! Now I must vote absentee to beat my “helpers” to the polls and voting on my behalf.

If blacks don’t vote, then democrats just vote for them. The democrats have been getting real time information on who has voted and who hasn’t.

If anyone is undecided about voting for Biden hasn’t the brains to be voting in the first place.

How much bad do have to have in your life before you understand what caused it.
