Trump’s Gains With Black Voters Could Decide 2024—And The Future Of American Politics
AMAC ^ | 7/25/24 | Aaron Flanigan

President Joe Biden’s decision to drop out of the race and endorse Kamala Harris makes Harris – the first black and female vice president – the heavy favorite to become the new Democrat nominee. While conventional wisdom suggests that Harris would be able to reverse Biden’s dramatic polling collapse with black voters over the past four years, polling data indicates that a Harris-led ticket might actually continue former President Donald Trump’s surging popularity with that demographic.

Throughout Biden’s presidency, Harris has remained consistently less popular with blacks than Biden. A 2021 poll showed that just 38 percent of blacks believe Harris cares “a lot” about black people – compared to 78 percent who said the same of Obama.

According to a CBS News poll out this week, Trump is performing about the same against Harris as he was against Biden among black voters, winning about 21 percent of the demographic group.

That’s bad news for Harris, as some polls have indicated that Trump’s support among black voters has more than doubled since 2020 (up from 9 percent) while Biden saw a stunning 12-point drop (81 percent to 69 percent). Among younger black voters (ages 18 to 49), Trump now enjoys a historically unprecedented 25 percent support. Even the far-left Washington Post was forced to admit that Trump is well on his way to setting “modern-day records” with black voters this fall.

They’ve got another dossier up their sleeve, if Trump survives to November.

The democrats will whip them back on to the plantation.

They’ve been doing that for almost 200 years (founded 1828).

Black population will remain poor and dumb

Democrats give black Americans enough to keep voting democrats but deprive them of better education to keep them dumb

No opportunity no future for family. It’s a cycle that black Americans haven’t figured out yet

Blacks should change their voting to “what have you done for me lately” attitude

It’s unfortunate but as long as they keep voting the same they’ll keep being taken advantage of. It serves the democrats well
