Without the support of Black Americans, how in the world will the Democrats survive?!
The famously pandered to voting block has grown weary of Biden and the Democrats over their support for radical Leftism and, most recently, a vaccine mandate for small and medium-sized businesses.
President Joe Biden’s job approval has been steadily sinking over the last few weeks — he is under 43% approval in the latest polls — but his decision to empower OSHA to police COVID-19 vaccinations in thousands of workplaces is tanking him with black voters.
The news seems to coincide with a protest out of New York City alleging that Mayor Bill de Blasio’s own vaccine mandate, which requires individuals seeking to dine indoors at restaurants have at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, is providing cover for racism and may, itself, be racist.
Polls have found that Biden’s approval dropped a striking 12 points among black voters since September 8th, the day before the White House announced their tyrannical plan to medically discriminate against workers. The policy will demand workplaces with 100 or more employees either require their workers to be vaccinated against COVID or submit to rigorous testing for the virus.
His approval rating among black voters is still high, but Democrats are looking at razor-thin margins in 2022, and 10 points from a key demographic could be the difference between holding both Houses of Congress or watching the federal legislature flip into Republican hands.
The vaccine mandate appears to be to blame:

The poll speaks to perhaps larger concerns over how minorities may fare if vaccine mandates become the norm. In New York City, a recent incident at Carmine’s Italian Restaurant on the Upper West Side ended up as a racial dispute with a Black Lives Matter group blasting the New York City dining mandate as racist and a cover for racism.
“Being a doctor does not protect you from anti-blackness. Having a vaccination card does not protect you from discrimination. The 1964 Civil Rights Act prohibits the actions of Carmine’s. It says it is illegal to discriminate against you on the basis of race,” Chivona Newsome, a co-founder of BLM Greater New York said.
As it turns out, 72% of black people in New York City from ages 18 to 44 are unvaccinated. So what is going to stop the NYPD from rounding up black people and imprisoning them for a personal medical decision?
“The vaccination passport is not a free passport to racism,” Newsome said.
