YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Recent polling data suggests a near twenty percent increase the number of Black men voting for Trump in 2024 while Black women remain the bedrock of the Democratic party and their most loyal and consistent contingent of voters. However, there are some women who are leaving to not just join the Republican Party, but take on active leadership roles. Taya Graham speaks with the National Engagement Director of Moms For Liberty Tia Bess, and the Black Media Director for Trump's reelection campaign Janiyah Thomas to try and understand why they choose to support the Trump-Vance ticket and how they defend their policies and outrageous comments, as well as the personal cost of being vilified for their controversial conservative views.
