Here’s why the narrative to oust Biden is failing w/Black women: Biden gave us the 1st Black woman VP in history, the 1st Black woman on the Supreme Court, has a Black woman as Press Secretary & has appointed more Black women for lifetime judgeships than any other president.

I’ve always found the performative modesty/frugality from the uber-wealthy class 1 of their most insufferable traits. The attention one gets from driving a Honda when you can at the very least afford say, a BMW, comes from the same ego that buys a $500 million yacht 20yrs later.

I think a big part of the perception here, is that Black ppl are brought up to respect their elders. They don’t malign them because they don’t speak or move quickly. We respect their inherent wisdom. A lot of folks on here weren’t taught to respect elders & it shows.

Out of ALL the Black churches in Detroit, the Trump campaign just happened to find the one where the pastor refused to leave after the congregation voted him out, changed the locks & got a restraining order. I know someone else who refused to leave after he was voted out. 👀
