"President Trump is surprisingly much beloved in Africa, and people don't realize this part of the region. Part of the reason why President Trump is beloved in Africa is because he's got a strong opposition to abortion. People feel like he probably is not pro-LGBT rights. People are very religious in Africa. Many people are religious, either Christian or Muslim. And so they feel that President Trump represents those conservative values that they agree with."
"Obviously, President Trump has made some decisions that affect Africans moving to the United States. There's a lot of Visa restrictions. There's aid cuts that affected. In Cameroon, where Pope Leo [XIV] is right now, maybe 600,000 people might not have food in the next few months because of the aid cuts that affect USAID and foreign aid by the United States."
"Overall, I think when I go around Africa, people like President Trump, they like that he speaks his mind and they remember him from The Apprentice. It was very well syndicated across Africa."
President Trump is viewed positively in Africa, largely due to his conservative stance on issues like abortion and LGBT rights. Many Africans appreciate his straightforwardness and remember him from The Apprentice. Despite significant aid cuts affecting millions, such as those in Cameroon facing food shortages, these factors do not diminish his popularity. The strong religious beliefs prevalent in Africa align with Trump's values, contributing to his favorable perception across the continent.
