Daily Caller reported:
Waka Flocka Flame posted his public support of Trump in the wake of a predicted slide in black voters in favor of President Joe Biden.
The Biden administration has been criticized for alienating black voters, especially those in poor, heavily populated urban areas. Biden’s popularity has dwindled over his handling of the border crisis which has seen illegal migrants flooding the country.
“We need to take care of our community, we need to take care of our black community, we need to open up these schools for mental health,” Caroline Ruff, Black Lives Matter Women of Faith founder, said during a Chicago city council meeting in May.
“We have not gotten anything for our community and we are sick and tired … enough is enough,” Ruff said.
The rapper’s bold show of support follows predictions that black voters might not show up for Biden in the 2024 election.
