Civil rights lawyer criticizes Biden for ‘insulting’ African Americans: ‘I am black and I will not vote for him’


Civil rights lawyer Leo Terrell said Thursday that alleged Democratic nominee Joe Biden has been “insulting” African Americans and said he refuses to offer substantial promises of help to underserved African American communities and those currently being shaken by criminal waves.

Terrell said that the mainstream media is painting a false narrative that claims that President Trump “does not care” for victims of urban violence, when the opposite happens.

“[Biden] He has not been to these Democratic cities and has welcomed the victims as President Trump did. He hasn’t walked hand in hand with the police officers, “Terrell told” Bill Hemmer Reports. “

“Joe Biden has insulted all African Americans by saying that if you don’t vote for me, ‘you’re not black.’ I’m black. I’m not going to vote for him. It is an insult to all Americans because people decide on the candidate’s competence: Joe Biden has to help people in those cities and he’s not doing it. He’s in his basement. “

Earlier this year, Biden told a New York City morning radio show that if African-Americans were unsure whether or not to support Trump, “they are not black.” The Delaware Democrat later expressed regret over those comments:

“It shouldn’t have been so arrogant,” Biden said in a May phone call with the United States Black Chambers, addressing the controversy within seconds of the session starting. “He shouldn’t have been such a wise guy … No one should have to vote for any party, based on race, religion, or origin.”

Terrell, who previously told Fox News that the Democratic Party “left it,” added that Democrats do not want civil order, but that the situation has also been completely opposite in that regard.

“Cable networks, other than Fox, did not show the President with the families of these murder victims. They are trying to create a false narrative. The narrative they are trying to create is that the President does not care: the reality is Most Americans, Democrats too, want law and order, “he said.

“The Portland mayor who has been denying access to federal agents was interrupted. Translation, these extremist groups protest, they are not protesters. They are criminals. They do not even respect the people who defend them, that is, Democratic mayors,” he added. Terrell.
