Despite brief post-election bounce, Trump has struggled throughout term to get majority approval from Black voters
Donald Trump appears to have lost of goodwill he had among Black voters during the 2024 presidential campaign, according to a new poll.
Among African-Americans, 71.5 percent disapprove of Trump’s presidency so far, while just 24.1 percent approve, according to a Decision Desk HQ average of polls current through July 7.
The president hasn’t gotten majority approval from Black voters since the end of his first week back in office, according to the aggregator, but the latest numbers represent a notable increase in discontent, after Trump had a 63.7 percent average disapproval rating among the voting demographic in mid-June.
I think they also were hit hardest by the thinking that he didn’t do the things he was stopped from doing in his first term. He was bad for immigrants in his first term, but American Latinos, being Americans often have a desire to shut the door behind them and blame all the new immigrants for their problems just like the English, Germans, Irish, and Italians before them. So yeah they thought “surely not me, I wasn’t hit last time.”
