Black voters, a crucial demographic in battleground states like Georgia, are voicing their support for former President Trump, as per a recent report.
“Trump keeps his promises,” voter Joseph Parker told Politico. “Everything is expensive now – groceries, clothes, gas. Four years ago, costs weren’t this high. People notice the difference between Kamala Harris and Trump and long for the stability of four years ago. I’m one of those people.”
Parker, along with other potential Trump supporters, has never before voted for a Republican presidential candidate in his lifetime.

“I’m not the biggest fan of Trump,” Arthur Beauford told Politico, “but I’d choose Trump over Harris any day.”
“He may not be perfect,” said voter Samuel Kem about Trump as a candidate, “but he gets things done. His diplomatic skills with other countries are commendable.”
“Honestly, I didn’t like [Trump] before. But now, I do,” said Fabrienne Durocher, a voter who voted for President Biden in 2020. “I’m against discussions about abortion from Democrats. I don’t support that, so I’ve changed my mind. I’m voting for Trump.”
Democratic strategist Howard Franklin emphasized the need for Trump’s opponents to recognize his appeal, especially his willingness to speak candidly unlike traditional politicians.
“I think it would be unwise for Democrats to ignore his appeal,” Franklin added.

“In simple terms, it’s buyer’s remorse,” explained former Cobb County Republican Party chair Jason Shepherd. “People are feeling the impact on their wallets. Suddenly, all the controversial remarks from Trump don’t seem as significant as a positive bank balance.”
A radio host delved into the distinctions between voting groups pondering between Harris and Trump.
“This election comes down to college-educated versus non-college-educated individuals,” stated conservative radio host Shelley Wynter. “In the Black community, it’s about working-class versus the educated elite. If you attended college, an HBCU, or were part of the Divine Nine, you’re likely pro-Kamala Harris.”
“In a state where 30% of voters are African American and another 4% are non-Hispanic minorities, even a small shift can have a significant impact,” former Faith & Freedom Coalition chair Ralph Reed told Politico. “The unknown variable is whether this shift will materialize on Election Day.”
