So to shore up support from blacks, he\u2019s all but walking around Washington in a durag. Ironically, that might be more helpful to his campaign than what he\u2019s been doing so far.<\/p>\n<p>Last weekend, Biden delivered <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/speeches-remarks\/2024\/05\/19\/remarks-by-president-biden-at-a-campaign-event-detroit-mi-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">a speech<\/a> in front of the NAACP in Detroit, where he even got the storied black Democrat political organization\u2019s name wrong, referring to it as the NAAC. In the same speech, he referenced the commencement address he delivered at the historically black Morehouse College in Atlanta earlier that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/speeches-remarks\/2024\/05\/19\/remarks-by-president-biden-at-the-morehouse-college-class-of-2024-commencement-address-atlanta-ga\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">same day<\/a>. \u201cI told them I saw them, I heard them, and the nation needs them,\u201d he said of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/this-week-in-campus-insanity-vol-37\/\" title=\"This Week in Campus Insanity Vol. 37\">black male students<\/a>. \u201cThey\u2019re the future of this country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>His assertion that \u201cthe nation needs them\u201d is a rosy recollection of what Biden actually said at that address.

As recently as last year, the White House <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/statements-releases\/2023\/02\/27\/fact-sheet-the-biden-%E2%81%A0harris-administration-advances-equity-and-opportunity-for-black-americans-and-communities-across-the-country\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">released<\/a> a \u201cfact sheet\u201d on how \u201cthe Biden-\u2060Harris Administration Advances Equity and Opportunity for Black Americans and Communities Across the Country.\u201d Included was the move to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-admin-expected-to-propose-ban-on-menthol-cigarettes-aclu-says-it-will-disproportionately-affect-communities-of-color\/\" title=\"Biden Admin Expected To Propose Ban On Menthol Cigarettes, ACLU Says It Will Disproportionately Affect Communities Of Color\">ban menthol cigarettes<\/a> because \u201cbanning menthol cigarettes could prevent as many as 654,000 deaths in the US \u2014 up to 238,000 among African Americans \u2014 over the next 40 years.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Black lives matter! (Except the 240,000 that Biden and Kamala Harris are willing to sacrifice if it keeps them in office!)<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s ingrained in the Democrat Party that winning black votes is about two things: welfare and calling Republicans racist. So long as Democrats promise sustained welfare and accuse Republicans of being white supremacists, the votes are just supposed to come pouring in. It often works, though maybe this time \u2014 with Biden-driven inflation, rampant national crime, and an uninterrupted flow of billions of dollars overseas \u2014 black voters will consider an alternative.<\/p>\n<p>Contrary to what some on the political right delude themselves into believing, it\u2019s not that black voters are \u201cstarting to wake up.\u201d They\u2019re still destined to vote for Biden and Democrats in November in overwhelming numbers. But maybe just enough of them won\u2019t. Maybe they\u2019ll vote for the Republican presidential nominee at a margin not seen in decades, as polls right now indicate.<\/p>\n<p>And if they don\u2019t want to vote for Trump, it\u2019s just as fine that they don\u2019t vote at all. Trust me, black voters. Not voting for Biden won\u2019t make you any less black.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-3ac2d2bedb3255506cca06b31dc9d3f1 fdrlst__b89e9-after-post-content\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-3ac2d2bedb3255506cca06b31dc9d3f1\"><\/div>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\">    \t\t\t\t\t   \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As Joe Biden&#8217;s support dwindles among nonwhite voters, his campaign team scrambles to prevent further damage.
