Impressive Group Of Black Americans For Trump! (2024)

Today, President Donald J. Trump announces “Black Americans for Trump,” a coalition with endorsem*nts from elected officials, athletes, entertainers, community leaders, and pastors who love our country. The coalition launches ahead of the Juneteenth holiday acknowledging and commemorating the ending of slavery in the United States.

President Trump accomplished more for Black Americans than any other president in recent history by implementing America First policies on the economy, immigration, energy, law and order, and foreign policy.

Historic ratesof Black voters now support President Trump, and the reason is simple: Black voters know that President Trump is the only presidential candidate who can deliver results on day one because he already has, including landmark unemployment rates for Black Americans, increased median income for Black households, historic permanent funding for HBCUs, comprehensive bipartisan criminal justice reform, and nearly $50 billion in funds to revitalize Opportunity Zones.

“Never has it been more clear that Joe Biden’s reckless reversal of President Trump’s America First policies is the very reason why Black communities have been utterly decimated under his Administration with sky-high grocery and gas prices, untenable housing costs, an invasion of illegal migrants and rampant violent crime,”said Team Trump Senior Advisor Lynne Patton.“On day one, Donald Trump will reinstate all his proven policies on immigration, law and order, energy, and the economy and put Black America First.”

Black families have paid the cost of Bidenflation, spending more per month under Biden on groceries and gas than they did under Donald Trump. Coupled with rising violent crime in urban cities and teachers’ unions taking control away from parents in our schools, it's clear why the Democrat party is hemorrhaging Black voters in record numbers.

"While Black Americans have been left behind by Joe Biden, President Trump has prioritized the Black community,"said Team Trump Black Media Director Janiyah Thomas.“Donald J. Trump’s coalition message to the Black community is simple: If you want to return to the policies that created rising wages, more quality jobs, stronger borders, and safer neighborhoods, thenjoin Black Americans for Trumpand vote for President Trump in November."

“Black voters are rallying around Donald J. Trump because of Jobs and Justice. There is a clear contrast this election, as Black voters experience the loss of spending power under Biden, the ravaging of their neighborhoods because of crime under Democrat leadership, and Biden's border disproportionately hurting communities of color. Donald Trump offers the best path forward. It's not just a Black agenda, it is an American agenda.” -Senator Tim Scott (R-SC)

“Beginning on day one of his presidency, Joe Biden shattered opportunities to attain generational wealth, access capital, and achieve the American Dream through overregulation and inflationary overspending. Black Americans are ready for change in November.” -Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL-19)

For far too long, the Democrat Party and Joe Biden have taken black voters for granted. Biden’s policies have been devastating to minorities. The economy, hyperinflation, crime, and Biden’s alarming migrant crisis have disproportionately harmed voters of color. This is why I am confident that black voters will deliver their verdict on Biden’s Presidency this November." -Rep. Wesley Hunt (R-TX-38)

“I know President Trump’s heart and I know he is the man to return America to We the People. As the famous saying goes, “A Republic, if we can keep it” has never been more so important than it is now.

Carson, Former 17th Secretary of HUD and Founder and Chairman of the American Cornerstone Institute

"Through President Trump’s leadership, I witnessed the transformation of the Republican Party to party that advocates for America's underserved and working class.
