The Biden-Harris campaign has spoken out against model and TV personality Amber Rose for her endorsement of Donald Trump.
On Monday (July 15), Rose, a former girlfriend of Kanye West, took to the stage at the Republican National Convention to announce her support for the former president. She claimed the media “lied to us” about Trump.
In response, the Biden-Harris campaign’s senior spokesperson Sarafina Chitika said in a statement: “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.
“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.”
Chitika 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.”
Rose spoke on day one of the Republican convention, not long after Trump arrived to a raucous welcome with a bandage on his ear after surviving an assassination attempt at the weekend.
Just hours earlier, he had announced Ohio Senator JD Vance as his vice presidential pick.
