From Fox News: A Black Lives Matter activist said he plans to cast his vote for former President Trump on Election Day, arguing that black voters have been “blindly loyal to the Democrat Party.”
Mark Fisher, who says he is a co-founder of Black Lives Matter Rhode Island, told the New York Post that he “definitely will not be supporting” Vice President Kamala Harris.
“If she ever got anywhere close to power, it would be a disaster for this country,” Fisher said.
Fisher pointed to the lack of improvement in black communities such as failing urban school districts and challenges with crime and poverty as to why black voters should not support Democrats in the election.
“For so long, we’ve just been blindly loyal to the Democrat Party — the Democratic Party — for no reason,” Fisher said. “They have given us no reason to have such loyalty — to maintain such loyalty — to them.”
In November 2023, Fisher announced during a Fox & Friends appearance that Democrats “don’t really understand because they don’t educate themselves on Donald Trump as a person and his history.”
At that time, the Black Lives Matter organization rushed to distance themselves from Fisher, calling his endorsement for Trump “a publicity stunt.”
