Trump often uses majority-Black cities to symbolize urban doom, corrupt politics, and American decline. His derogatory statements have now led to backlash from the Democratic National Committee.
Despite claiming to seek Black votes, Trump made disparaging remarks about Black cities like Detroit, Baltimore, Oakland, and Chicago. His statements, though criticized, he defended as not racist.
After his 2020 loss, Trump blamed cities with large Black populations for voter fraud. He singled out Detroit, Philadelphia, Atlanta, and Milwaukee, accusing them of being politically corrupt.
Trump's actions of blaming Black-populated cities for election outcomes and political corruption have been widely condemned as divisive and harmful. His strategies have faced backlash and scrutiny by various groups.
