President Biden recently launched an ad targeting black voters, trying to paint his opponent, former President Trump, as a racist. But let’s not forget Biden’s own troubling history with race issues. It seems that Biden, worried about his dropping poll numbers compared to Trump’s rising support, is resorting to desperate tactics.
Biden's Desperate Move With Black Voters: Labeling Trump a Racist While Ignoring His Own Track Recordhttps://t.co/VD0ELp88Tx

The ad released by the White House, titled “Contempt,” tries to portray Trump as a racist using selective quotes and misleading information. However, a closer look reveals the ad is filled with lies and distortions. From twisting Trump’s words about the Central Park Five case to misrepresenting his comments after the Charlottesville incident, the ad is a classic example of political manipulation.
While Biden tries to point fingers at Trump, he conveniently ignores his own problematic statements and actions regarding race. From making insensitive remarks about African Americans to cozying up to a former Ku Klux Klan leader, Biden’s track record on race is far from pristine. Yet, he has the audacity to accuse Trump of racism without acknowledging his own shortcomings.
It’s ironic that Biden is playing the race card against Trump when it’s clear that Trump has made significant efforts to support the black community. Initiatives like funding Historically Black Colleges and Universities, criminal justice reform with the First Step Act, and opportunity zones demonstrate Trump’s commitment to improving the lives of minorities. Even critics like CNN’s Van Jones have acknowledged Trump’s positive impact on the black community.
In the end, it’s important for voters to see through the political smokescreens and examine the actions of both candidates objectively. While Biden may try to deflect attention by labeling Trump a racist, the facts tell a different story. Trump’s actions speak louder than Biden’s empty accusations, and it’s crucial for voters to look beyond the rhetoric and consider the actual impact each candidate has had on issues of race and equality.
