Former Vice President Joe Biden appeared on The Breakfast Club for a one-on-one interview with Charlamagne Tha God.
What should have been an opportunity to speak to a wide base of Black voters quickly devolved into an awkward conversation that highlighted one of Biden’s biggest weaknesses: his ability to say the absolute worst things at the absolute worst times.
When Charlamagne made it clear that he had more questions for the presumptive nominee, Biden responded: “You got more questions, but I’ll tell you if you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t Black.”
It also makes folk like Biden believe that they possess some sort of “honorary Black” status that allows him to tease us the way we tease each other.

Black voters must continue to hold Biden accountable.
