Sportswriter Jason Whitlock discussed how growing up in Indianapolis was reminiscent of what would be an enclave of "Black Trump supporters," on the latest episode of Fox Nation's "Tucker Carlson Today," given their collective working-class roots and tough work ethic.
"My mother was a factory worker, my dad didn't graduate high school. But eventually, he started a barbershop and then eventually a bar, tavern in the inner city -- like a Black ‘Cheers’," Whitlock told Carlson, in reference to the 1980s NBC sitcom based in a working-class Boston bar.
"People find it confusing when I say it, but it's like I grew up around Black Trump supporters. They didn't know it, but they were just like Trump supporters -- working-class, worried about their families, just want to work hard and create space for themselves to be happy in America."
