Full Report:

Republican National Committee Chair Michael Whatley shared promising news on Newsmax about former President Donald Trump's increasing support among minority voters, citing his proactive outreach and willingness to engage with tough questions.


Whatley highlighted Trump's efforts, noting his events in traditionally Democrat strongholds such as the Bronx, downtown Philadelphia, and Detroit, as well as his appearance at the National Association of Black Journalists event in Chicago. "You have to ask yourself, where was Kamala Harris?" Whatley questioned on "Newsline." "If there was ever an event for her, this would have been it, and she was not there. She will not talk to the press. She will not take any tough questions. Donald Trump is communicating directly to every American. He's reaching out to every single community. And I think it's going to pay off."


According to Whatley, this strategy is already yielding significant results. "We are starting to see massive shifts in Hispanic voters, Black voters, and Asian American voters who are moving away from the Democratic Party and supporting Donald Trump 20 points higher than they did back in 2020 because he is listening to them and cares about the issues that matter to them."


When discussing why the national conversation frequently turns to race, Whatley asserted, "That's what the Democratic Party and Kamala Harris want to talk about. What Donald Trump wants to talk about is how to make America better for every American family. How are we going to lift this economy up so that it can lift every family up? How are we going to protect our southern border? How are we going to shut down this immigrant invasion that we have seen coming across into Texas and Arizona?"


He continued, "Under Donald Trump, China was in check, Russia was in check, and we didn't have the attacks in the Middle East that we're watching right now. The whole Middle East is really on fire. So, we want to get back to a strong America. I think the entire country does, and those are the issues that the voters care about. So, that's what we're going to continue to talk about."
