As former President Donald Trump continues to gain support among black voters, the Biden campaign seems to believe the best way to win those voters back is to be in denial.
Poll after poll has shown that Trump is gaining support among minority communities, as President Biden’s support is slipping. A recent USA Today/Suffolk University poll shows Trump gaining support among black voters in two swing states — Pennsylvania and Michigan. In 2020, Biden received 92 percent of the black vote nationwide.
In Pennsylvania, 56.2 percent of black voters said they would vote for Biden in 2024, 20 percentage points lower than in 2020. In Michigan, Biden’s support among black voters is down 22 percent from 2020. Despite that, Biden’s campaign co-chair Mitch Landrieu doesn’t think those polls are reality.
There’s no universe in which Donald Trump is going to get 21 percent of the Black vote….
