Barack Obama Sounds Alarm: Black Voters Not Enough Behind Kamala Harris, Especially ‘The Brothers’

Only 84 percent of black voters say they would vote for Harris, according to a Pew Research poll from September 30, while 13 percent said they would vote for Trump. Harris’s support among the demographic is down eight points from President Joe Biden’s support in 2020, when he won 92 percent of their vote.

Black voters appear to be trending towards leaving the Democrat party. From 2018 to 2022, the Republican share of the black vote jumped from nine percent to 13 percent.

Obama on Thursday also pushed back against Trump’s argument that the black community in the inner city is especially hurt by the southern border invasion, which suppresses wages, increases rents, and overloads first responders.

“Now if you challenge Trump to elaborate and enumerate his concepts, he will fall back on one answer. Vance does the same thing. It doesn’t matter what the issue is, housing, healthcare, education, paying bills, their only answer is to blame immigrants,” Obama said. “They want you to believe that if you let Donald Trump rounds up whoever he wants, by the way, and ship them out, all your problems will be solved.”

Many polls show the public wants to welcome some immigrants. Polls also show, however, deep and broad public opposition to labor migration and to the inflow of temporary contract workers into the jobs needed by the families of American taxpayers.
