Biden’s bizarre attempt to shame Trump and win back black voters on TikTok backfires spectacularly

A Biden-affiliated TikTok account’s post attempting to educate people about Donald Trump’s controversy was criticized by commentators who instead asked about inflation.

The battle over who influences space took a turn this weekend after Trump joined TikTok with millions of followers on an app he once tried to ban.

President Biden continues to try to fight back, posting a video Sunday night about the story of a former producer who came forward claiming Donald Trump made racist comments during the filming of Season 1 of “The Apprentice.”

In a cringe-inducing video posted to the BidenHQ TikTok account, an unknown female “influencer” was seen trying to retell the story in a way to shame Trump as a “lifelong racist,” and talked about other incidents.

However, the post has gone viral for all the wrong reasons, as it was flooded with comments about what seemed like more pressing matters.

The responses were full of questions like: ‘Why is my rent expensive?’ or ‘Why can’t I pay anything?’ and ‘Why did Joe Biden say poor kids are just as smart as white kids?’

Another account wrote, “I can’t afford eggs,” while another complained that they “can’t wait to afford a house.”

The influencer hosting the video started by saying, “Y’all need to see this new report on Donald Trump,” before switching to a clip of Omarosa Manigault Newman, suggesting the clip might be real.

Former Apprentice contestant and Trump White House aide Manigault Newman has claimed to have heard the tape, which the Trump camp has long denied exists.

“Has anyone noticed a pattern here? This is the same man who called for the execution of innocent black men and spread racist lies about the first black president. Donald Trump is exactly who we all knew he was: a lifelong racist,” she continued.

“Black voters kicked Donald Trump out of the White House in 2020, and we’re going to do it again in November.”

The video has been viewed more than 1.4 million times and received a thousand comments, many with similar complaints about inflation and the cost of living.

The End Wokeness account on X wrote: “HAHAHA this is epic. Biden’s campaign is desperately trying to win over black voters on TikTok… it’s backfiring spectacularly.”

A TikTok from the account “Biden-Harris HQ” attempted to share the story of a former producer who came forward claiming Donald Trump made racist comments during the filming of Season 1 of “The Apprentice,” but was flooded with concerned responses with what seemed more urgent matters

‘This is a completely fabricated and bull**** story that was already proclaimed in 2016. No one took it seriously then, and they won’t take it seriously now, because it’s fake news,” said spokesman Steven Chueng.

Trump joined TikTok on Saturday evening and has already posted his first video – a montage of his night at a UFC fight in New Jersey, just days after becoming a convicted felon.

The flashy 13-second launch video shows Trump entering the arena, waving to fans and posing for selfies.

It saw Trump shaking hands and taking selfies with several fans during the UFC fight.

“The president is on TikTok right now,” Trump was introduced by UFC president Dana White, before saying directly to the camera, “It’s my honor,” as Kid Rock’s American Bad Ass played in the background.

At the end of the video, Trump leans close to the camera and asks, “That was a good walk, right?”

The former president aptly captioned his first TikTok: “Launching my TikTok at UFC 302.”

Trump’s account has already amassed more than four million followers, more than ten times as many as the Biden-Harris headquarters account.

He was introduced to TikTok during his recent hush money trial.

The video has been viewed more than 1.4 million times and received 1,000 comments, many with similar complaints about inflation and the cost of living.

However, Trump wasn’t always a supporter of the app either and tried to ban the addictive app during his presidency due to national security concerns.

Like Trump, Joe Biden’s campaign joined TikTok in February and has 334,000 followers.

Trump has said he believes ByteDance still poses a threat to national security, but that blocking the app would anger young Americans and only help Meta, which owns Facebook and Instagram.

Trump was suspended from Facebook for two years after the 2021 Capitol Riot.

He has said that he “considers Facebook an enemy of the people, along with much of the media.”

As he waited for the verdict in a back room of the courthouse last week, his eldest son, Don Jr., introduced his father to the podium.

They appeared in a TikTok together while discussing their next mean tweet. Don Jr. currently has 345,000 followers and only started using the app last week.

Trump is joining TikTok — and reaching potential younger voters — after the app could be banned altogether in coming months if it doesn’t divest from Chinese owner ByteDance, after Biden signed a law in April forcing a sale.
