CNN's Van Jones: Life 'worse' for blacks under Biden

"The rising gas prices, food prices really walloped the black community in a particular way," Jones said.

CNN's Van Jones says the economy has gotten "Worse" for Black Americans since Biden took office.

Sen. Tim Scott: 'Unprecedented progress' for blacks under TrumpIn June 2020, amid the COVID pandemic and racial turmoil in the wake of the death of George Floyd, a Rasmussen poll of likely voters shows a remarkable 41% of blacks approved of the performance of then-President Trump.

While some might have viewed the survey by the "Conservative" Rasmussen as an outlier, its finding in December 2019 of 34% approval among blacks was affirmed by an Emerson College poll that had it at 35%. And a Marist poll at the time found 33% of non-white voters in approval of the president.

At the time, Black Republican Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina praised Trump's work for the black community in an interview, saying "The last three years of progress have been unprecedented in my lifetime."

One of Biden's key black supporters, Rep. James Clyburn - credited with rescuing the former VP's flailing campaign by endorsing him in South Carolina - said he "Cringed" at Biden's assertion in an interview that black voters "Have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black."

Senior Trump campaign official Katrina Pierson, who is black, said Trump's support among blacks was "Going in the right direction."
