Radio host Charlamagne Tha God sparred with a black caller on Thursday about his refusal to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris, despite his disdain for former President Donald Trump.

While 92% of black voters supported the Democratic presidential candidate in 2016, that number has dropped to 78% in 2024, according to a recent New York Times/Siena College Poll. The caller argued on “The Breakfast Club” that Democrats have failed to earn his vote, pledging not to vote for Harris even though he views Trump as “Hitler Jr.”

“I’m not voting for Hitler Jr. and if I had to be honest with you … I don’t trust the Democrats, bruh. As a black man in America, we done been lied to so long. Promises have never been kept,” the caller said. “I’ma just keep it a buck. I’m not voting this year … I don’t trust the Democrats and I damn sure ain’t voting for Hitler Jr. Whatever happens gon’ happen.”

“Well if you not votin’ and Hitler Jr. wins, then you know you gon’ have to blame yourself,” Charlamagne retorted. “You gon’ have to take some of the blame.”

Trump’s former White House chief of staff John Kelly told The New York Times and The Atlantic that the former president had “fascist” tendencies and allegedly praised former Nazi leader Adolf Hitler. The Trump campaign has denied the allegations.

“I think the Democrats should take the blame because they’ve let down the black community so long. Just like you said the other day Charlamagne, they keep comin’ at black men,” the caller said. “They send Barack Obama, I don’t why the hell every four years they send Barack Obama just to talk to black men and chastise us about voting but like you said, 52% of white women is what got Trump in office.

“So why ain’t nobody never comin’ at white people about voting? Why is it always up to black men? And then when they get in office, the things they promised us, it never comes to fruition,” he added. “I’m fatigued, Charla.”

Obama on Oct. 10 urged black men to back Harris while speaking at a Pittsburgh-area campaign office, asserting he thinks a reason for their reluctance is they “aren’t feeling the idea of having a woman as president.”

“I’m with you. I understand the fatigue, but you know, not voting is never an option for me ’cause I like to complain, you know what I mean? You really can’t complain if you don’t participate in the process,” Charlamagne said. “I gotta participate in the process.”
