Meh, after that video cuts off, he literally refers to Trump as a former President 20 seconds later.
But I know the point of this thread is slander and shyt posting, not to post the entire record or facts.
Staff exodus signals end to Biden’s trade dreams
The realization that little real progress is likely to be made in an election year where former President Donald Trump will put a glaring spotlight on trade has convinced some officials it’s time to move on.

The neighborhood he grew up in was always a bit rough around the edges, and it has frayed even more over the years, but Bryan Killian-Bey found reasons to smile as he drove through it on a recent winter day: his grandmother’s old, now-abandoned house and the school that used to be a hangout spot for the area’s kids.
But the smile fled as Killian-Bey, 59, steered his truck farther into the city’s core, which has rapidly declined during years of economic turmoil, leaving streets once lined with vibrant homes and businesses now riddled with empty lots. Without fail, he said, Democratic canvassers show up around election time vowing to improve conditions for him and his neighbors, but it never happens.
He voted for President Biden in 2020, but this time Killian-Bey says he and others in his predominantly Black neighborhood aren’t so sure. “I’m torn between voting and not voting at all. A lot of us are,” Killian-Bey said. “I don’t think Biden is it, but I don’t see what else is out there.” He wants Democrats to “give me substance. You can’t dangle carrots and assume we’ll vote for you just because we don’t like the other platform.”
Political analysts say Killian-Bey’s views illustrate a waning enthusiasm among Black voters, particularly Black men, toward Biden and the Democratic Party. A series of polls in recent months have alarmed party strategists and liberal organizers and reportedly frustrated the president, who is facing a tight race for reelection against former president Donald Trump, the Republican front-runner.
A New York Times-Sienna poll in late October found that 22 percent of Black voters in six battleground states, including Michigan, would support Trump if the general election were held today, while 71 percent said they would support Biden.
Trump won the support of just 8 percent of Black voters in the 2020 election and 6 percent in 2016, according to the Pew Research Center’s validated voter study. Although few strategists believe Trump could get 20 percent of the Black vote in the next election, even a small uptick would spell trouble for Biden, especially in swing states with large shares of Black voters, such as Michigan, where Biden edged Trump 50.6 percent to 47.8 percent in 2020. A more realistic danger for Biden, political strategists say, is that dissatisfaction among some Black voters may drive them to sit out in November.
Cliff Albright, co-founder of the Black Voters Matter Fund, said that while the polls do not mean the sky is falling for Biden’s campaign, “it just might be drizzling.”
He said conservative talking points have resonated with some Black voters who feel disillusioned or have economic grievances, even though Biden has made more significant gains in reducing unemployment and creating jobs in his first three years than Trump did, including for Black Americans.
“It’s speaking to this idea that Democrats haven’t done anything for you — they’ve let you down and taken you for granted,” Albright said. “But I always say in every piece of disinformation is a kernel of truth. They find that kernel, that grievance, and they feed on it.”
The Biden-Harris campaign and Democratic leaders have taken notice of the sinking enthusiasm among Black voters, particularly after a 10 percentage-point decline in Black voter turnout in the 2022 midterms compared with 2018. The campaign has accelerated its efforts to appeal to Black voters, including a pilot plan that uses digital messaging and “trusted messengers” to spread the word about Biden’s accomplishments, as well as a $25 million advertising campaign on Black and Hispanic media in swing states.
“We know we can’t take any voters for granted, especially Black voters, young voters, who’ve been a crucial bloc for the Biden-Harris coalition,” said Michael Tyler, communications director for the campaign. “We have work to do to remind these communities of what we’ve accomplished for them in the first three years.”
The administration says Biden has delivered for Black voters in numerous ways. The Black unemployment rate hit an all-time low of 4.7 percent last spring. The administration has created programs to boost historically Black colleges and Black-owned small businesses. The Justice Department has launched investigations into law enforcement agencies for systemic misconduct. Biden has diversified the courts in unprecedented ways.

“More Black women have been appointed to federal circuit courts than every other president in American history has appointed,” Biden said recently at a historic Black church in Charleston, S.C. “Every single, solitary one counted. And we’re going to keep going.”

And the president is seeking to speak more directly to Black voters about initiatives that benefit them. When talking to Black audiences, for example, he frequently highlights a pipe replacement program to reduce lead exposure, a health risk that disproportionately affects communities of color.
Black voters have for decades been the most consistent supporters of Democratic candidates in presidential elections, noted Leah Wright Rigueur, an associate professor of history at Johns Hopkins University. Black turnout rose sharply in 2008 and then declined in 2016 when former president Barack Obama was no longer on the ballot.
But Black men are more likely than Black women to vote for Republicans; in 2016, 14 percent of Black men supported Trump compared with 4 percent of Black women, according to Pew’s validated voter study, helping fuel a Republican narrative that Black men were a potentially fruitful source of converts. In 2020, 12 percent of Black men supported Trump compared with 5 percent of Black women.
“There’s an assumption that because Donald Trump is Donald Trump, he’ll have zero support among Black voters. That couldn’t be further from the truth,” Rigueur said. “Amongst a small subset of Black men, there is more of a willingness to entertain Republican overtures. And that is distinctly gendered. Black women are less likely to entertain it.”
Many Black voters say they are disappointed that Biden, despite his promises, failed to win a sweeping voting rights bill or police reform legislation. While that is largely due to Republican opposition, some civil rights leaders argue that Biden did not spend enough political capital on such bills, especially compared with favored causes like the Ukraine war.
In any case, civil rights measures often resonate less with Black men, who may view economic prosperity as a more realistic way to get ahead, said Theodore Johnson, a scholar on race and electoral politics at the think tank New America.
“Democrats talk a lot about the Voting Rights Act, the Supreme Court and Republicans using the filibuster to prevent good things from happening. The implication is the only way civil rights can be advanced is if we pass more laws and get more favorable rulings on racial equity,” Johnson said. “Some Black men say, ‘To hell with it. ... This is America, a capitalistic country, and if I’m well off, people will treat me right because the color green is more important than the color of my skin.’”

And many Black Americans, like other voters, may not be feeling the strong economy in their daily lives, given stubbornly high prices and interest rates.
