Earlier today, The Breakfast Club’s Charlamagne Tha God did a virtual interview with presidential candidate Joe Biden and after the conclusion of discussing several topics, Biden, smiling as he says it, remarks to Charlamange that, “If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black” according to CBS News.
Charlamagne asked questions in regards to Biden and the importance of the black support and vote for this year’s upcoming presidential election.
At the conclusion of the interview, as a Biden aide was reminding Biden that he had to go, Charlamagne interjected by saying, “You can’t do that to black media!”
Biden suggested for Charlamagne to take a look at his voting record to see his longtime support for the black community.

Symone D. Sanders, senior advisor to Biden posted on Twitter:
The comments made at the end of the Breakfast Club interview were in jest, but let’s be clear about what the VP was saying: he was making the distinction that he would put his record with the African American community up against Trump’s any day.
