John Legend claims Black voters leaving Biden because of ‘masculinity,’ ‘disinformation’ on economy
Liberal singer John Legend blamed “disinformation” and ideas about “masculinity” for driving Black and Latino voters to support former President Trump this election.
“I do think Trump performs a form of masculinity that is appealing to some men,” Legend reacted to a question about polls showing Trump’s increased support from younger Black voters, in an interview with “Pod Save America” on Tuesday. “That may explain the uptick.”
The coach on “The Voice” went on to argue that these voters wrongly believe the economy has been suffering under President Biden.
“I hear a lot of misinformation and disinformation about the economy under Trump and what’s happened since. To be clear, the economy is doing quite well,” Legend claimed, citing low unemployment and manufacturing jobs coming back to the United States.
