Black Ex-Democrat Blasts Kamala Harris, Declares Support for Trump: Dems ‘Invoke Fear’

Frank Bergman August 9, 2024

Gillum spoke at a rally for U.S. Senate candidate Kari Lake where she also declared her support for President Donald Trump.

During her moving speech, Gillum warned that Democrats “invoke fear” and stoke division among races in order to win support from black Americans.

“My name is Jade,” Gillum began.

“I am a former Democrat.

“Unlike Kamala Harris, I’m an actual real-life black woman,” she added, immediately drawing cheers from the crowd.

“I’m a former Democrat who is currently a registered Republican.

“I stand here before you today because I’m tired.

“I’m tired of the Democrats using the generational trauma of my people to garner votes.

“They invoke fear. They tell me I’m oppressed.

“They tell me I’m less than.

“They tell me I’m not good enough.

“And they tell me that my white brothers and sisters in Christ are my enemy.“No. They are not.”

She continued by explaining that the Democrat Party has become that enemy.

Gillum noted that Democrats use fear and division to maintain power rather than offering real solutions to improve the lives of Americans, particularly black Americans.

“The enemy is telling me that, don’t worry that I can’t pay my bills, that I’m working six days a week this week and I’m tired,” she continued.“I went to school and I have a career.

“I’m doing worse under this administration than in Donald Trump’s administration, but I’m told to be afraid of a man who made my life better?

“Yeah. How does that work? Make it make sense,” she said.

Gillum continued by emphasizing that, regardless of race, all Americans share the same basic desires.

“All these Americans want the same thing,” she said.

“We want safety, we want prosperity, we want peace.”

However, in an effort to cling to power, the Democrats continue to manipulate racial divisions and fears instead of fostering unity and forgiveness.

Gillum also took a pointed swipe at VP Harris.

She specifically criticized the Democrat presidential nominee’s involvement in popular culture, which Gillum sees as detrimental to the dignity of black women.

“Let’s honor our ancestors by doing better and honor them because they’re rolling over in their graves hearing the fact that Kamala Harris is having Megan Thee Stallion twerk and showing our bodies as these just vessels of lust. That’s not cool,” she said.

As she offered a better solution for black voters, Gillum urged Americans of all races to move past the fear, rage, and anger that the Democrats are promoting.

“Let’s vote for Donald Trump so we can all be prosperous again,” she declared to cheers from the audience.

“Let’s get out of this fear, this rage, and this anger, because it comes from the devil.

“So hear me, black folks. Hear me, white folks: We are so much more alike than we are different.

“Oh, yes. Oh, yes. We need to forgive each other. We need to help each other.”

As the crowd roared in approval, Gillum called on black Americans to finally drop the hammer on the Democrats and hold them accountable.

“I don’t owe the Democrats anything,” she asserted.

“They owe me. They’re to serve us.

“They’re public servants,” Gillum concluded.

“Stop putting them on a pedestal. Make them work for us.”
