Lord Jamar, a rapper and actor known for his role in "The Sopranos," recently criticized Vice President Kamala Harris. He expressed his support for former President Trump instead.
As the election nears, Harris’s campaign faces challenges. She's struggling, especially with Black men. Despite her efforts, influential voices like Charlamagne Tha God and Eddie Griffin suggest she might not win their backing. They highlight Trump's unique appeal to this demographic.
Jamar didn't hold back in his critique. “This woman, to me, is not qualified to run, you know, a Dunkin' Donuts or a 7-Eleven,” he declared. He believes that Trump’s previous presidency counters fears of dictatorship.
“People want to act like Trump is the worst motherf----- in the world,” he stated. “But guess what? He was already president and all this s--- that you're talking about didn't happen.” Jamar argues that Trump's supposed threats of dictatorship are exaggerated. He insists Trump's comments were meant to be taken lightly.
Harris worries him more. Jamar referred to modern Democratic policies as "Project 2024." He warned that he might vote for Trump to stop this agenda. “You worried about Project 2025 when they already ran Project 2020 on you with the scamdemic,” he said. Jamar felt pressured to vote for Harris but emphasized his concerns about her capabilities.
He claimed that many Black Americans share his view. “Trust me, the sentiment on the street… is a lot of people are not f------ with this woman,” he said. He noted that even some Black women are not supportive.
Jamar contrasted Harris with Trump, praising the latter's presidency for avoiding wars. “There was no wars when Trump was president,” he asserted. He credited Trump with strong tactics that kept America safe.
He recalled sending someone to interview attendees at a Trump rally. This person noted a welcoming atmosphere among Trump supporters. “He said as a Black man he felt no racism whatsoever out there,” Jamar recounted. In contrast, he said the anti-Trump protesters were the ones who made him feel unwelcome.
