she could go without a few bell peppers though
You get to go on TV, IF you are rural, white, maga, or undecided. definitely not a democrat though.
A democrat controlled city that blames all their problems on Conservatives😂
Inflation is because during Covid, the government paid people to make an excuse "i dont want to work because Im afraid I'll get covid"
These people ain't "black".These people are figgas.Black people don't beg for governnent help.
Look up the definition of insanity,,, keep doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome…
They are smart and not want to be targeted. They are voting #TRUMP2024
These brothers and sisters gotta find a way forward on their own. Black Philly gotta raise itself up. Nothing that Biden or Trump is going to do is going to make their communities or lives better. That’s the reality. The changes that will affect them will largely come from city government and the Commonwealth level.
Black people voting for trump is like cows voting for Longhorn Steakhouse!
Pardoning Reparations Automation Yields. PRAY 🤍
Vote for Trump.
Have these folks heard of project 2025? I think if they knew about it, that would make their choice much easier.
Amazing people are not smart enough to know why goods and services are so high first thing Biden did was scrap trumps U.S self reliant on oil and coal so with Biden we have to beg other countries for our energy very simple to understand
Then you have an open border which is taking away money and resources why is it so difficult to understand why we are in the state we are in for the past 3 and a half years. The countries that we are buying our resources from are going to give the current administration lower prices during the election year but after it's over and Biden wins you better believe the price of oil and coal are going right back up and you will be paying a lot more for all good and services takes energy to move and make these products if we were self reliant like Trump was making us all good and services will be a lot cheaper this is just common sense I don't understand people how they don't get it. And how out of it Biden is these countries dictate to him how much we pay for energy. Biden is not strong on negotiating deals at all and appoints people way under qualified to get us good deals he is the worst president I've ever seen he will bankrupt us and it really hurts the poor and middle class the most if your rich you don't spend in his regime you have to be very careful when you have so much incompetence in an administration
Ask yourself this question. Do you like the way things are going now in this country? I bet you don’t. Guess who is running this country now? Biden. And guess what now you have a chance to vote for a better candidate. A candidate who can make your life better. Trump 24
These people also didn't stand up for a different candidate for mayor….they didn't back a candidate that believe the things they are saying…
Thanks Joe.
They are not black if they dont vote democrat… I am shocked they are undecided… so selfish
In my state, belle peppers are still affordable. Average price: $1.99 a lb. And cheaper during summer months because of our local farmers.
Philly spends more per kid on school than the wealthiest county in the US. 25 percent more. Throwing money at kids won’t fix the problem.
💙💙💙💙🇺🇸🤴🥇
I thank these blacks who have woken and realized how democrats had deceived them for ages
If you're undecided, you have not paid attention to anything for a long time. There is so much information available. This is unbelievable.
It's completely ridiculous to be undecided when you would lose your basic human rights with trump.
Joe biden replaced black poeple with illegal terrorists
My people, what a joke.
No Cash Reparations No Vote 🛋️Nov 2024🛋️
So many people are uninformed and pretend to be, and it shows.
They want to vote biden but not sure if he will be candidate
Undecided on life????? Project 2025 is removing the Civil Rights Act???? What applies to TRUMP in the MAGA legal system will never apply to you!!!!! Don't be your own undoing!!!! Do you like the thought of your student loan being 3x what you currently pay understand Project 2025….Education with no Department of Education???? Please inform yourselves PLEASE!!!!
When can we see that mysterious ear injury??????
Bell peppers are not 5 bucks
Why people always talking about inflation the president can't do nothing about greed.
My question to the CULT is what have Republicans done for Black People?😮
Will President Biden try to keep the child care tax credit all year long and extend the extra food stamps that was under covid the Republican shut them down.
To brainwash black people against Trump, these people are selectively brought for interview.
Where are the daddy's ?
4 years is a long time to be paying double for almost everything we need daily. It felt good to vote for Biden on the social issues.. But i cant afford to vote on social issues anymore, i need to vote with my wallet this time.
The mom made me cry.
These people live in Philadelphia, I'm sure everyone know about cousin grocery store
I'm voting for Biden
BLACK PEOPLE OF AMERICA THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY HAS REPLACED YALL BY ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS.
Just keep voting for the democrats and expect a different outcome.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
These are state issues. The federal government doesn’t control these issues. Funds are passed down from the federal government to the states. States then allocate funds to their cities.
They will stay with the democrats 😂😂😂😂
Most black kids don’t have fathers living with them, that’s the main reason for black kids.
It still amazes me how the federal government is getting the blame for inflation while companies who jacked up prices during covid and never returned prices to pre covid levels, even after the supply chain issue has been resolved get a pass. Look at the stock market people. Companies are raking in RECORD PROFITS! Corporate greed and capitalism in it's purest form is the major contributing factor in inflation, not Joe Biden or the federal government people. Meanwhile trump wants to add a 10% tarrif to all good coming into the country. You think prices are high now? Just you wait…
Seems like they’re deleting a lot of pro Democrat comments. Hmmm… I wonder what’s in it for them.
The entire world is experiencing inflation due to the pandemic. However, the United States government has rebound it better than any country in the world from the pandemic. We have the strongest economy globally. Donald Trump did not do anything to help the economy during the pandemic. He pretended it didn’t even exist. Joe Biden Inherited this mess and I think he did a great job of getting us out. It’s going to take some time. Remember corporations are making the largest profits ever right now. Corporations are price gouging they are taking advantage of the situation. This has nothing to do with Joe Biden. He cannot control what your barber charges you. He doesn’t control with the supermarkets charge you. This is a capitalist society the government doesn’t control prices besides fuel and other natural resources.this is why economics and government courses are so important.
