  1. Sure they are NYT. You can stop writing your hit piece articles now. You lost. Biden isn’t going anywhere. Give up.

  2. >Black women have long been the Democratic Party’s most reliable voting bloc. More than 91 percent of Black women who voted in 2020 supported Mr. Biden, and polls have consistently shown they are still his most stalwart constituency, one that has yet to crack even as those same surveys suggest a broader slippage of support among Black voters.

    Worth remembering. That being said, won’t this bloc support Harris as much as Biden?

  3. NYT is working hard to become the next FOX. They’re still mad Biden wouldn’t give them an interview.

  5. Fuck the nytimes and their biased headlines.

    tl;dr: Black women support Biden.

    Not as bad as “Why I don’t vote. And maybe you shouldn’t either” which the nytimes published on the 4th of July, but still pretty bad.

  6. Black people are not going to abandon Biden. He has supported them completely and been a great president for their interests. There is a reason the Black Caucus leader was the first and most vocal to defend Biden.

  7. They have a lot to lose, we all do, some of us just don’t fucking understand that yet.

  8. I thank all the women that will save democracy this November.

  9. And we know Black women are a monolith. Not a varied group of people with varied identities and behaviors.

  10. Black women have probably not forgotten the horrors visited upon them by Trump’s lawyers: both Ruby Moss and her mom, whom Giuliani baselessly portrayed as crack and heroine addicts, and with Fani Willis who had to endure sexist and racist pointed questions from Trump’s liar in GA case. Through his lawyers, Trump has been ruthlessly evil to black women.

  11. Black women are pretty much the only reliable voter bloc for Democrats.

  12. A vast majority of black women will never support Trump or even Kennedy.

    But this is one of the groups that will suffer more if the DNC ruins this election and loses it.

  13. That’s a terrible headline. Almost like The NY Times wants people to vote for Trump over Biden.

  14. Is it just me or does it seem like the NY Times is unnecessarily using a bunch of negative sounding words in that title.

  17. Black women are going to yet again save this country from itself

  18. But Reddit told me **everyone** is running away from Biden as a viable candidate.

  19. I don’t know why women of any race would vote for a party that actively takes away their hard-won, incredibly deserved, and long established rights.

    GOP does not respect women and their well-being or personal rights whatsoever. The proof is plain.

  20. Black ppl gotta put America on our back again to end Trump

  22. Biden will serve this country until his very last. I don’t think Donald could even crayon what service means to our Nation.

  24. Do people understand what Trump means for blacks and the ruin he’s going to bring? His people are saying slavery was good and Jim Crow was good for black people. How the fuck can you justify it?

  25. That’s great but I don’t think 6.5% of the population casts 50% of the votes

  26. What an oddly malicious way of phrasing that title.

    Oh, it’s from the NY Times, the joke tabloid website that unironically does those “Why thats bad for Biden headlines.”

  27. They’re the double whammy. Trump is racist and wants to take women’s rights away.

  28. Well, who else are we supposed to vote for?! It’s not so much that we are for Biden vs we are decidedly against the Republican Party.

  29. That’s funny, cause I would much prefer to vote for a black woman than Biden.

  30. Biden should do a speech where he says “I AIN’T NO WAYS SUFFERING FROM DEMENTIA.”

  31. ITT:

    Black Women are the most reliable Democratic voting bloc.

    AND

    Black women won’t vote for a Democrat if it’s not Biden (or maybe Harris).

    That would mean that they aren’t the most reliable Democratic voting bloc. So which is it, because it sounds like people are trying to have it both ways in a way to scare us into just being happy with Biden.

  34. This guy fought against desegregation and made comments like “it’s a racial jungle” and black people want to vote for him? Please he’s a racist and still is a racist only using black people who are dei/diversity hires to make himself look good. He avoided hugging a black lady his own team pushed to the front to make him look like he supported diversity.

  35. Black people are already stupid, black women pretending to be smart is like a retarted abandoned county clown show with only criminals and no proper clowns…
