It wasn’t the first time that he voiced dissatisfaction with the Democrat Party. Fisher claimed that Democrats “don’t value” the black vote earlier this month during an interview with “The Kim Iversen Show.” He said that Trump advocates for policies that uplift the community. “Democrat policies strike at the heart of the Black family and the nuclear family.”

His endorsement comes at a time when polling shows black voter support for Joe Biden going soft.

“We’ve been used and abused for so long by that party, they don’t value our vote,” Fisher said. “Their policies are basically racist policies. I believe it’s a racist party. Donald Trump is just the opposite. He’s he’s going to tell you how it is. He’s going to give it to you straight.”

“Trump has done more for the Black community than I can any president I can think of in my lifetime,” he continued.

Fisher suggested that Black voters who are still voting blue are “misinformed” and aren’t educated on Trump’s policies and how they benefited the Black community.

“A lot of people are misinformed,” Fisher said. “They don’t really understand because they don’t educate themselves on Donald Trump as a person and his history, but if they do that, and it’s going to take… educated leaders to getting the word out there, I think that it’ll happen on its own, and it’ll be organic, because personally, I love the man.

“How could you not like a real man? How could you not relate to someone like that?” he continued.

He hasn’t left the Black Lives Matter movement, a movement led by Marxist progressives, and said he preaches unity, which I find ironic, given the actions of BLM are not at all about unity. Their mission is to destroy the nuclear family and capitalism. Is Fisher a unicorn or is he one of many black voters who realizes black Americans are not better off with Democrat leadership? Remember when Donald Trump asked potential black voters, “What the hell do you have to lose?” as he asked for their votes. Trump’s message was that Democrats promise everything and end up delivering very little.

Black voters may not turn out for Biden in states like South Carolina and that is raising red flags with his campaign. Black voters in South Carolina, led by Rep. Jim Clyburn, saved Biden’s presidential campaign in 2020 during the primary race. The question now is if they will turn out for him again, given the political atmosphere now. Biden is not popular with any demographic and he can’t win without a strong turnout by black voters. There is a lot of a what-have-you-done-for-me-lately attitude and the truth is, very little.

Kamala Harris recently filed the paperwork to put Biden’s name on the South Carolina primary ballot.

Politico has a piece up on black voter’s support in South Carolina, or the lack thereof. The reporter found that one problem is that they don’t know about all the alleged great things Biden has done. There is a disconnect.

There was a gulf, the Democrats said, between what Biden has accomplished in his first term and what voters give him credit for. They’d heard the complaints at work, or at home. They’d read the stinging op-ed in the weekly Black newspaper, the Carolina Panorama, which included the line: “For me, having to vote for Joe Biden is as grating as hearing fingernails being drawn across a blackboard, but I am out of options.” They made mental notes — or, in some cases physical ones — of Biden’s legislative achievements to share with skeptical colleagues and friends.

When Marcurius Byrd, a Democratic strategist who founded the Young Democrats of the Central Midlands, volunteered that he was “fucking glad” that Biden is running for reelection and that “he’s exceeded everybody’s expectations,” Dylan Gunnels, the chapter president, said to him, “Clearly, he hasn’t exceeded everyone’s expectations.”

Byrd must have had a low bar for expectations. Where are Biden’s successes? He may have rammed through some trillion-dollar spending bills and bragged about all the giveaways to targeted constituencies – like young voters and forgiving student loan debt – but the obscene levels of spending led to historically high inflation. People in all brackets are struggling to pay for basic needs like groceries and gas and mortgage payments. Sixty percent of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck.

When Trump was in office, thanks to his economic policies, all demographics did well. The economy was booming and people remember that. Voters now are looking back and thinking that mean tweets really weren’t so bad when they were benefitting from a prosperous economy and opportunities. People vote with their pocketbooks. It’s the economy, stupid. All the sayings are correct. There is no way Joe Biden can win re-election if Americans don’t feel they are doing well. Yet, Biden is embracing his economic mess and calling it Bidenomics, as though it is something of which to be proud. He sends rubes like Jared Bernstein out to do all the Sunday morning political shows to put out phony claims that the economy is doing great, voters just don’t realize it yet. Bernstein is the chair of the Council of Economic Advisers. His message last weekend was that everything is going well but there is more to be done. To her credit, FNC’s Shannon Bream countered with fact checks for each of Jared’s claims.

One important distinction that has to be made is that the administration boasts that inflation is easing up a bit – the very inflation Biden’s policies created – but the truth is that prices are not going down. That is why consumers don’t feel the magic. Nothing has changed for anyone as they go about everyday life. The price of gas may be down here and there but it is still higher than when Biden took office. Filling up a gas tank shouldn’t cost as though it is a luxury purchase, it’s a basic necessity. People have to be able to get to work and take their kids to school. There is still pain being felt at the pump.

In 2020, Trump received about 8 percent of the vote. Current polls show a change that is scaring Democrats.

Three years after Donald Trump pulled about 8 percent of the Black vote nationally, polling this month by The New York Times and Siena College of six battleground states found his support had bumped up to 22 percent of the Black electorate if the election were held today. Other polls looked even worse for the Democrats; a national poll by CNN registered Trump’s support among Black voters at 23 percent, while an earlier Fox News poll put it at 26 percent.

Those are jaw-dropping numbers for a demographic that, traditionally, has been the Democratic Party’s most reliable voting bloc. And it’d be bad enough for the Democratic Party if the erosion of Black support was strictly about Biden or the likely Republican nominee, former President Trump.

Will that kind of response by black voters hold through the 2024 presidential election? We don’t know. What is happening is that as black voters become more educated, they are not so willing to vote as a monolith. Instead of blindly going to the polls and voting for whomever has a ‘D’ behind his or her name, voters are paying attention to all candidates and what they have to say. Black voters may not consider going to all Republican candidates but in the case of Trump, there is a record. They remember his signature on stimulus checks during the pandemic to keep businesses afloat and help out-of-work people who lost jobs during the pandemic. They remember that the economy was booming, jobs were plentiful, Trump made permanent the federal funding for HBCUs, and he worked on criminal justice reform that affected the black community.

If Trump is the Republican nominee, I wouldn’t look for him to receive 22-26 percent of the national black vote but any increase could make a difference in a tight race, which the presidential race will likely be. Democrats know that and that is why they are in a panic now.
