In a recent turn of events, CNN has reported that Donald Trump is performing better among Black voters than any Republican candidate since the 1960s, and it’s not just Black men who are leaning his way. Vice President Kamala Harris, on the other hand, appears to be struggling to garner the same level of support from Black female voters that Democrats have enjoyed for decades. In fact, Harris is reportedly winning less Black female voter support than any Democrat since the 1960s, which is alarming for the party that has traditionally relied on this demographic.
The news has led to a wave of social media commentary. Users are expressing that Kamala’s campaign is crumbling before their eyes. One user, Cash Loren, bluntly stated, “Kamala’s campaign is collapsing right before our eyes.” Another user, Myers Alva, suggested that the Democratic Party has never genuinely intended to help Black voters, stating, “They may throw them a bone every once in a while, but the intent is to keep them on the plantation and use them for their vote. I think Black people are starting to understand this.”
The comments underscore the skepticism that many voters now feel towards the Democrats. SMX, another commenter, confidently declared, “Trump will win.” Meanwhile, Devon Westhill added, “The pendulum is swinging back toward sanity.” These reactions reflect a growing sentiment that Trump’s campaign is making inroads into voter groups that were once considered solidly Democratic.
Curious Doge made an observation that Biden’s previous election performance raised eyebrows: “Strange that Biden got votes from 30% fewer Black men than Obama, yet received 16 million more votes because he outperformed in a handful of urban areas.” Such statements reflect the broader suspicion about the consistency of the Democrats’ support base, particularly in urban centers.
Others took the opportunity to comment on the broader implications for the Democratic Party. Bartemy S remarked, “There’s only so many liberal college-educated white women and soy boy liberal men. The Harris and Democrat constituency has come down to pretty much that being their base.” He went on to note that other groups were shrinking for the Democrats, emphasizing that the diversity of support is thinning.
