*Senator Raphael Warnock expressed doubts that Black men will significantly support former President Donald Trump in the upcoming election.
Newsweek reports that Vice President Kamala Harris is leading among Generation X, Generation Z, millennials, baby boomers, and the silent/greatest generations in a new poll.
According to The Hill, during an appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Warnock aimed to ease concerns among fringe liberals who are obsessed with how Black men will cast their vote on Election Day next month.
“Let me tell you something this morning, Black men are not going to vote for Donald Trump in any significant numbers. There will be some. We’re not a monolith,” he said.
“Again, we’re not a monolith, but this, this idea that large numbers of Black men are going to vote for Donald Trump, it’s not going to happen,” Warnock added.

We reported earlier, citing The Hill, that Rep. James Clyburn (D-S.C.) also expressed concern that Black men will vote for Trump in the upcoming election.
“I am concerned about Black men staying home or voting for Trump,” Clyburn said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “But my concerns don’t tend to keep me from being energetic about this campaign.”
The South Carolina congressman recalled having “very frank and direct discussions” with Black men recently while campaigning for Harris in Michigan.
“Black men, like everybody else, want to know what I can expect from a Harris administration,” Clyburn said.
CNN’s Dana Bash pointed out that polling data does not indicate a large number of Black men supporting Trump.
“I think that folks will recognize how much is really at stake in this moment, and that the choice really is not between voting and not voting. Not to vote is a vote,” Warnock said. “It pushes Donald Trump that much closer to the White House and that’s something that we cannot afford to happen.”
