RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
BAIER: “All right, Leslie, it’s a concern. He is going to these different places. He will give a commencement address at Morehouse College. It’s obviously on the radar.”
Marshall: “No doubt. You don’t want to see any kind of a drop even though I do believe that the African-American community will rally around and vote for President Biden again. But, you know, there are feelings, Bret, and then there are facts. Lowest unemployment in the black community, 2.6 million more jobs created in the black community. Half of the poverty among black children cut in half, you’re talking about years that you have a historical high in the number of black-owned businesses that are opening and a historical high in the number of SBA-backed loans specifically to black small business owners and I could go on but I don’t want to take up all the time here. So I think it’s important for the president to get out there and to talk about all of these areas that the black community isn’t hearing about because what they are hearing about from Mr. West, who is running for president, and who is an African-American, is we need to be angry at Joe Biden because back in the day he put more black people in jail. That’s the message that they are hearing, not the information that I gave prior to that.”
