Kamala Harris, Fearing the Loss of Black Support, Offers More Freebies
Breitbart ^ | 10/14/2024 | Wendell Husebø

Posted on 10/14/2024 8:03:58 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

The Harris campaign announced more taxpayer-funded proposals for the black community on Monday.

The proposals come after polling showed Harris has about 12-15 percent less black voter support than President Joe Biden won in 2020. The Harris campaign’s new proposals to try to reduce the defections include legalizing marijuana, a new loan program, preferred banking options for entrepreneurs, preferred apprenticeship and mentorship programs, and preferred expanded health screenings, the New York Times reported:

The campaign is facing pressure to shore up support among Black men, as polls show that Ms. Harris is receiving significantly lower support from the voting bloc than President Biden did in 2020. The slip from Mr. Biden’s 2020 numbers among Black men is striking: 70 percent said they would vote for Ms. Harris in November, down from Mr. Biden’s 85 percent in 2020.

This softening support has so alarmed Democrats that former President Barack Obama issued an urgent call this week for Black men to drop “excuses” and rethink sitting out the election.

Black men, particularly younger ones, have been steadily slipping from the Democratic Party, frustrated that their experiences are not reflected in policy as much as other groups’. Ms. Harris’s proposals appear to confront those concerns head-on.

Former President Barack Obama sounded the alarm and scolded black men Thursday night for not “feeling the idea of having a woman as president.”

Black men should be insulted by Obama - he treats them as if they’re too stupid to see what Harris really is.

It’s a proven technique that works.

What’s the joke about “We already know you’re a prostitute. Now it’s just haggling over the price”?

I hate to break it to the folks demanding a free ride, but...

Trump’s is the only economy that stands a chance of keeping you in the style to which you’ve become accustomed.

Think about that.

Then vote like your free ride depends on it.

Because it does.

If white women do not realize that they're included with white males then they're ignorant and not reading between the lines.

Gee- she thinks a lot of black people /s

People. regardless of color- want Sound Policies, NOT “Free Stuff”, because sound policies enrich not just individuals, but the whole nation as well, and offer far far more than ‘cheap free stuff’ ever could!

Are Latinos excluded? What about woman?

This would just be another mass give away like the student loans. They would never be repaid. Then they would go on about needing reparations.

They are calling them “forgivable” loans which means free money.
