Biden-Harris Campaign Speaks Out Following Amber Rose’s RNC Speech, Says Trump ‘Doesn’t Care About’ the Black Community

The Biden-Harris campaign is speaking out following Amber Rose‘s support for Donald Trump during her speech at the Republican National Convention on Monday night (July 15).

“Amber Rose is right about one thing: research is important. Since we’re talking about facts, we brought receipts: Rose said American families were better off when Trump was president – and if she’s talking about his billionaire donors, she’s right,” the campaign’s senior spokesperson Sarafina Chitika told Variety. “But for Black communities, it’s the opposite story: Black unemployment, Black uninsured rates, and crime rates skyrocketed under Trump’s leadership, because the truth is simple – Donald Trump doesn’t care about us, our lives, or our livelihoods.”

She concluded, “A vote for Donald Trump is a vote to line the pockets of millionaires like Rose at the expense of actual Black communities, and those are the facts.”

In her speech, Rose alleged that the media misguided her views about Trump. “[I] care about the truth, and the truth is that the media has lied to us about Donald Trump. I know this because for a long time I believed those lies,” the 40-year-old model said. “I realized Donald Trump and his supporters don’t care if you’re Black, white, gay or straight. It’s all love. And that’s when it hit me: These are my people. This is where I belong.”

She concluded, “When you cut through the lies, you realize the truth: American families were better when Donald Trump was president. We were safer, wealthier, and stronger.”

Rose went public with her support of Trump in May when posting a photo to social media alongside the former president and his wife, Melania. Back in 2016, Rose called Trump a “f—king idiot” in an interview with The Cut.
