‘We Can’t Be Bought’: Black Voters Slam Democrats at Michigan Trump RallyOlivia Rondeau 26 Jul 2024

Black voters who attended Donald Trump’s rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan, last weekend said that the former president “is for everybody” and that their beliefs are based on “morals,” not “skin color.”
Speaking with Fox News reporters at Trump’s first campaign rally since the assassination attempt against him in Pennsylvania, Anthony from Kalamazoo said Democrats “take us for granted.”
“When we speak, they don’t listen,” he added.
While Biden won 87 percent of the black vote in 2020 compared to Trump’s 12 percent, the Democrats’ hold on minority voters has been slipping.
A recent CBS News/YouGov poll revealed that Biden’s support among black voters had dropped to 75 percent and Trump’s had risen to 24 percent:

Now that Biden has dropped out of the race in favor of Vice President Kamala Harris, politicos are wondering if she will take back some of that black support from Trump.
“Not all of us think of ourselves in relation to our skin color,” Jermaine from Detroit told Fox News. “This is really about values and morals and how you see the world.”
Henry, of Battle Creek, voiced his irritation at the left treating black people differently.
“No person is special because of their race,” he told the outlet. “You don’t have to treat us like we’re a brand-new creature, OK? Trying to make me think that I deserve more than somebody else, I’ve been mistreated more than others. No. We’re just normal people.”
Another black voter, Austin, said that people and businesses did better financially under Trump.
