Summary

Support for Donald Trump among Black voters has dipped to 9% in recent NBC polling, down from 12% in 2020, as Election Day nears. Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee, currently leads with 87% of Black voter support.

In response to potential support shifts, Harris has introduced initiatives aimed at Black men, addressing business, mentorship, and health equity.

Despite minor gains with Black voters in past elections, Trump’s campaign remains focused on economic outcomes, with recent polls suggesting his support among Black voters may be lower than previously estimated.

    How did he ever have support from them in the first place? Did these black voters not make the connection between Trump and his supporters being Nazis and those being the same people who would be/still are in the KKK?

        Individual persons that happen to be Black, sure.

        But to characterize this as “Black voters” paints a picture that there’s some kind of large constituency of Black Trump supporters even though that’s clearly not the case. It’s a tiny minority of a minority population.

      Did we get his usual Trump endorsement this time around or did he stay silent on this one? Maybe he was too busy talking shit about Jewish real estate agents selling the mansion he trashed in LA.

        Maybe dumbass finally got back on his meds or media stopped caring (I know I did). The longer I don’t hear celebrity news the better.
