Former Bernie Sanders campaign advisor Nina Turner criticized former President Barack Obama for singling out Black men who haven't shown the same enthusiasm for Vice President Kamala Harris's presidential bid as they did for his own campaigns. Turner argued that Obama's remarks were 'wrong' and that politicians should strive to court all voters.
A former Bernie Sanders campaign adviser slammed former President Barack Obama Thursday for calling out Black men who do not support Vice President Kamala Harris . 'Why are Black men being lectured to?' former Democratic Ohio state Sen. Nina Turner said on CNN. 'Why are Black men being belittled?' The former national co-chair of the Bernie Sanders 2020 presidential campaign said that Obama was 'wrong.
Turner added that politicians should strive to court all voters, and in the process, garner support from the 'few good men out there who do care about the stripping away of some of women’s bodily autonomy.' Turner concluded, 'But this is wrong for President Obama. It is a wrong course for the Harris-Walz campaign to lay at the feet of Black men when they have their reasons.
Obama said, 'Now, I also want to say that that seems to be more pronounced with the brothers. So if you don't mind -- just for a second, I've got to speak to y’all and say that when you have a choice, that is this clean: When on the one hand, you have somebody who grew up like you, went to college with you, understands the struggles pain and joy that comes from those experiences…' He went on to contrast this with Trump.
