This should actually come as no surprise since Blacks and Hispanics are crossing over to the Republican party in droves. They have finally caught on that they are a priority issue for the Democrats. In the past fifty years they have been promised the world by Democrats, but end up with only table scraps. Then they look at the progress they made when Trump- was president and it becomes a no brainer for them.
Mark Fisher is the co-founder of the organization’s Rhode Island chapter. He was a lifelong Democrat but became disgruntled and ditched the party recently. Fisher has also been very vocal about the shabby treatment afforded to J6 political prisoners and he led a prayer vigil outside E. Barret Prettyman courthouse in DC on Aug. 30 to protest the sentencing of Proud Boys Enrique Tarrio and Ethan Nordean. He has decided to send a message to Democrats by endorsing Trump for president.
NEW: Black Lives Matter Rhode Island co-founder Mark Fisher is supporting Donald Trump for the 2024 election because Democrats are “not for us.”
Didn't see that one coming ????????

Relevant transcript:
Fox and Friends co-host Lawrence Jones: This is my favorite story of the day because it identifies what I have seen in the barbershop…all the brothers are turning tides right now (against the Democrats and toward Trump). What is the big reason?
Fisher: I think personally it is the duplicity of the Democrats. We’re not stupid. The brothers are not stupid. We understand when someone’s for us and when someone is not and it’s obvious that the Democratic party is not for us.
Their policies actually strike at the heart of the black community and the nuclear family.
Jones: You were part of Black Lives Matter and you founded it there (Rhode Island)…What is it about Donald Trump, what is it going to take for him to shore up this support amongst black voters?
Fisher: It’s just going to take information. A lot of people are misinformed. They don’t really understand because they don’t educate themselves on Donald Trump as a person and his history.
If they do that, I think it will happen on its own. Personally I love the man. I mean, how could you not like a real man? How could you not relate to someone like that?
Jones: If you had the opportunity to talk to the former president, I’m sure he’s watching right now, what would you tell him?
Fisher(chuckling): I stump for Trump!
Fisher then affirmed to Jones that he is still a member of Black Lives Matter but that he preaches a message of unity rather than division. “I want to bring all the marginalized groups to the center because we’re stronger together as one nation under God,” he said.
One hopes that he will have success both in his mission to re-elect Trump and in knocking some sense into BLM. The latter will likely prove more difficult.
In August, The Gateway Pundit’s Alicia Powe had an exclusive interview with Fisher in front of the federal courthouse in Washington, DC.
The January 6 political prisoners “are going through the justice system, the court system, just like a lot of my brothers and sisters had to go through when I was coming up and as a youngster, and to this day,” Fisher told The Gateway Pundit.
“Just because something is legal doesn’t make it right. Just because something is legal doesn’t make it moral. But it is a nation of laws that we live in, as opposed to a nation of people. So we have to deal with them,” he said. “I believe solidarity and brotherhood is the way to combat governmental overreach and legislative abuse.”
“I stand in solidarity with the January 6 political prisoners” and “there are hundreds of men that stand with me,” the community organizer told TGP the night before meeting this reporter at the Capitol building.
Interesting blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere? A design like yours with a few simple adjustements would really make my blog stand out. Please let me know where you got your design. Kudos
Whoa! This blog looks just like my old one! It’s on a entirely different subject but it has pretty much the same layout and design. Outstanding choice of colors!
Hello my friend! I want to say that this post is awesome, great written and come with almost all significant infos. I would like to peer extra posts like this .
Having read this I thought it was rather enlightening. I appreciate you spending some time and energy to put this information together. I once again find myself spending a lot of time both reading and posting comments. But so what, it was still worthwhile!
Some genuinely interesting points you have written.Helped me a lot, just what I was searching for : D.
You really make it seem really easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be really one thing that I believe I would never understand. It seems too complicated and extremely wide for me. I am having a look forward for your next post, I’ll attempt to get the dangle of it!
Your point of view caught my eye and was very interesting. Thanks. I have a question for you.
