Trump's support among Black voters has spiked to 23%

https://www.inquirer.com/opinion/donald-trump-black-voters-against-joe-biden-20240411.html

"Black voters’ support for Trump could be key in 2024 election
Tiffany Vann, a 28-year-old conservative blogger based in Claymont, Del., told me she is tired of hearing about “programs.” “Where are the opportunities? That’s why I lean Republican. They are providing jobs.”

I didn’t explain how Democrats in the White House tend to create more jobs than Republicans. Because, again, it’s perception that matters.

All of the above is why I’m so antsy about November.

Granted, with eight months to go, a lot could shift. But the more I talk to certain folks, the more I wonder just how solidly the Black base will turn out for Biden."

The (paywalled) article quotes the deeply flawed NYT/Siena poll, but proceeds with handwringing clickbait anyway.

So are some people who can't take advantage of them.
