Black celebrities like Kanye West & Ice Cube aren’t alone. In fact, sportswriter Jason Whitlock says it shouldn’t be a surprise that more and more black men are supporting Donald Trump. He says that unlike President Obama, Trump actually “has a record” of helping black Americans.

Whitlock explains why Trump nearly convinced him to register to vote, and he describes how his long-time Democratic mother reacted when she experienced a softer side to the president.
