  Byron Donalds CHICAGO, IL — During a Trump-Vance 2024 press briefing in Chicago, Representative Byron Donalds (R-FL) emphasized a significant increase in support for former President Donald Trump among Black voters.

Chicago News: Byron Donalds Warns That Crime Is Being Underreported in the US Due to Low Morale “His support among Black voters is anywhere from 15 to 17%, which is massively up over where it was in 2020 and 2016,” Donalds noted.

  Byron Donalds CHICAGO, IL — During a Trump-Vance 2024 press briefing in Chicago on Tuesday, Representative Byron Donalds (R-FL) dismissed concerns raised by Democrats regarding the potential impact of abortion issues on the upcoming presidential election.

  Byron Donalds CHICAGO, IL — During a Trump-Vance 2024 press briefing held on Tuesday in Chicago, Representative Byron Donalds (R-FL) raised alarms over what he believes is a troubling trend in the United States: the underreporting of crime. According to Donalds, the issue stems from a combination of low morale among police officers and a perceived lack of consequences for criminal activity.

He argued that the discrepancy might be due to underreporting, driven by a widespread belief that calling the police often results in little to no action.
