Global News | Obama criticizes Black men who aren't supporting Harris: "Not acceptable" @globalnews | Uploaded October 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
Former U.S. president Barack Obama criticized Black voters who are thinking of sitting out the 2024 election or voting for Donald Trump instead of Kamala Harris during remarks at a Harris campaign office on Thursday, saying it “shouldn't even be a question.”
Obama said that Harris, the Democratic nominee, “understands the struggles and pain and joy” of the Black community, while Trump “has a history of denigrating” Black men.“
"It's not acceptable," Obama said, adding, "Part of it makes me think that, well, you just aren't feeling the idea of having a woman as president."
In an NAACP poll in mid-September, over one quarter of younger Black men said they would support Trump in the election.
