Yesterday in a Howard Stern radio interview, Biden said during the civil rights struggle, he was arrested for visiting with a black family on the porch. This never happened.
Gee, ya think his lies about the civil rights era are going to go over good with black voters? You ain’t black if you don’t vote for me?
Is he stupid or does he think they are stupid?
If we had a real media Biden wouldn’t be allowed to repeat his lies.
But he’s grabbing votes from a few black people who think he’s telling the truth and bring out lace handkerchiefs when he repeats the tall tales.đ˘đ˘
At one time Jesse Jackson who was nearby when MLK was shot added to the story until he made it sound like he was holding the dying man’s head as MLK tried to tell him to be the one to carry on the legacy now that he’ll be gone. Story had to be walked back later.
Is he stupid or does he think they are stupid?
Yes and yes.
“Is he stupid or does he think they are stupid?”
both.
Yes to both!
He’s always been stupid and he thinks blacks are stupid!

Although black people are, on average, more conservative than white liberals, a significant break among black voters from the Democratic Party should be unlikely, because the Democratic Party treats black people collectively as an interest group it services, and the GOP does not.
Giving stuff to and doing stuff for black people is one of the main things the Democratic Party is about. Central to its messaging is that they do things for black people. That is why Joe Biden promised to nominate a black Supreme Court justice, and Gavin Newsom promised to fill a Senate vacancy with a black appointee.
The Republican Partyâs messaging to white people isnât as explicit, but the subtext is clear. Theyâre saying that the Democrats want to take stuff from âyou,â their prospective voter who is probably white, and give it to âsomebody elseâ who is probably black or an immigrant.
For black voters to switch in large numbers from the party that promises to give stuff to black people to the party that opposes giving stuff to black people, the Democrats have to err spectacularly. Basically, black people have to hate the stuff the Democrats are giving them.
One major thing the Democrats have been giving black people since 2020 is the Black Lives Matter agenda: Less policing, less traffic enforcement, less pretrial detention, less imprisonment, fewer police interactions with black men in areas where a lot of black people live.
It is possible that a lot of black people actually hate the Black Lives Matter agenda. It is possible that they are upset that people are driving sixty miles an hour down the street where their kids play. It is possible they blame Democrats for the rise in crime and disorder.
Black people bear the brunt of rising crime much more than white people do, so when white liberals believe crime is a conservative bogeyman, they think theyâre being antiracist, but theyâre actually dismissing the concerns of black people who are experiencing rising crime acutely.
The other thing that might be happening is that the GOP message that the Democrats are taking something from âyouâ and giving it to âsomebody elseâ is appealing to black voters more than it has in previous cycles, because this time, the âsomebody elseâ is migrants.
A lot of black voters live in large cities and a lot of migrants have flowed into those cities in the last couple of years, and black people in those cities are experiencing more negative impact from this than white liberals are.
The school gymnasium or the community center in a black neighborhood may have been turned into a shelter for migrants, or migrants may be congregating in a park in a predominantly black neighborhood. City programs that historically benefited black residents may be cut to defer funds to migrant services.
White liberals experience the migrants as, like, an unlicensed vendor selling cut mango in front of the art museum, and black voters experience the migrants as MS-13 selling fentanyl on their block.
I still have a hard time imagining that a lot of black voters are going to support Donald Trump, who, for better or worse, has successfully been tagged as a racist. But if black people are really fleeing Joe Biden, then it reveals a stunning disconnect, because the Biden administration has been more dedicated to âstuff for black peopleâ than any Democratic administration in my lifetime.
If Biden is losing the support of black voters, then that means that crime and immigration are more important to black people than the BLM agenda, the appointment of black judges and executive branch officials, affirmative action and diversity policies, and student loan forgiveness.
Biden was out there with the best of the racists protecting school busing in NE cities in the 70s
