Harry Enten, a senior political data reporter for one of the world’s least trustworthy news networks, CNN, was absolutely dumbfounded by the idea that former President Donald Trump is proving to be a very big hit with the young, black voters. Because, as you all know, blacks are only supposed to vote Democrat. If you have dark melanin, it’s assumed you will go with the flow, join the hive mind, and vote for the Democratic presidential candidate, no questions asked.
If you don’t, well, you might not be black enough.
This is actually how the radical left thinks, folks. Enten’s reaction to the data clearly demonstrating that young blacks are siding with Trump instead of Biden is proof.
During an appearance on “News Central,” the show’s host, John Berman, asked Enten, “Where does race stand among African-American voters right now?”
He was not at all prepared for the answer.
According to Breitbart, Enten went on to reply, “I keep looking for this to change, to go back to a historical norm and it’s, simply put, has not yet. In 2020, Joe Biden was getting 86% of the African-American vote. Look at where it is now. It’s 70%, that’s a 16-point drop, John. And more than that, it’s not just that Joe Biden is losing ground, it’s that Donald Trump is gaining ground. You go from 7%, single digits at this point in 2020, to now 21%. And again, John, I keep looking for signs that this is going to go back to normal. And I don’t see it yet in the polling of anything. Right now, we’re careening towards a historic performance for Republican presidential candidate, the likes of which we have not seen in six decades.”
He went on to add, “Look at black voters age 50 and older and you’ll see, look, Joe Biden was leading amongst this group at this point by 83 points back in 2020. Now, it’s 74 points. So yeah, a slight decline in that margin but nothing out of this world. Look at black voters under the age of 50. Holy cow folks, Holy cow. Look at this, Joe Biden was up by 80 points among this group back at this point in 2020. Look at where that margin has careened down towards, its now just — get this — 37 points. That lead has dropped by more than half, Mr. Berman. Oh my, I just never seen anything like this. I’m like speechless because you always look at history and you go, ‘OK, this is a historic moment.’ If this polling is anywhere near correct, we are looking at a historic moment right now where black voters under the age of 50, which have historically been such a big part of the Democratic coalition, are leaving in droves.”

The man said he’s “speechless” because young black Americans are beginning to think for themselves, engage with the issues that impact their life the most, and examine whether or not Democratic Party policies have adequately addressed those problems or not. And, as it turns out, they haven’t helped much at all. In fact, they’ve actually made matters worse.
That’s because Democrats aren’t actually interested in improving the lives of minorities. No, to the left, these demographics are nothing more than a means to an end. That end is power and money.
Sad, but true.
