CNN brought in three black Trump voters in an effort to display Trump voter remorse. It went over like a lead balloon as all three said that they would vote for Trump again, given a chance. Jones tried to rope them in using Democratic talking points, but they refused the Kool-Aid offered to them. During a segment on Anderson Cooper 360, longtime leftist commentator Van Jones sat down with three black voters from South Carolina. Fortunately, CNN has had egg on its face so many times that they have grown used to it.
It’s not just CNN—plenty of other unreliable media outlets have desperately tried to sell the narrative that Trump voters regret their choice. But Trump supporters aren’t falling for it. The mere thought of enduring another Biden term or, worse, a Kamala Harris presidency is enough to terrify voters—I know it sends shivers down my spine. Even CNN’s own polls show voters overwhelmingly believe Trump would do a far better job than Harris as president.

The panel, made up of Seth Dawkins, Detra German, and Kyasia Kraft. All three voted for Biden in 2020. Jones should have asked them about Biden remorse.
Seth Dawkins, a former Democrat who voted for Joe Biden in 2020, didn’t mince words:
Jones: You weren’t always a Republican?
Seth Dawkins: No, actually, I come from a family that was, like, super Democratic. My first time voting, I voted Democrat. I voted for Joe Biden.
Jones: What about Trump appealed to you?
Seth Dawkins: Am I allowed to cuss?
Jones: Yeah, you can do.
Seth Dawkins: I mean, part of it is he’s an asshole. I like authenticity.
Jones: What are some things that he’s doing that you do like?
Seth Dawkins: For me, I like the border. I just don’t like the idea of someone coming here illegally and getting benefits that can serve my community. So that’s the reason why I support him on that border policy.
Jones: When you think about the border, you think about people coming here who are getting more help than people who live here and were born here?
Seth Dawkins: Yeah. And I got that perspective not from news channels—I got it from social media. TikTok is like a holy ground. We even see it with the things that we learn about the United States government outside of the United States. People are showing Americans, “Hey, look at what’s going on. Do y’all know that your government’s doing this? Have you seen this? Have you looked at it from this perspective?”
Jones: You know, people, when they think about a Trump voter, they usually think about, like, a white dude with a red hat on and a pickup truck. And y’all are not that at all. So Donald Trump’s team went in, they took down Harriet Tubman’s picture for a quick minute. They’re trying to knock out the Black museums. What does that have to do with the price of eggs and how does that impact you?
Seth Dawkins: In some ways, it’s a slap in the face. In other ways, I don’t care. I care more about how I’m going to take care of my children.
Detra German, another ex-Democrat, revealed that it was Candace Owens who opened her eyes.
Jones: You voted for Obama, and then you voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016, but in 2020, you voted for Donald Trump. What made the change?
Detra German: I began listening to someone. Her name is Candace Owens. And I read her book, and it just opened my eyes to maybe he’s not this person that I have been led to believe that he was.
Kyasia Kraft, who voted against Trump in 2016 but changed her mind in 2020, cited the booming economy and improved international relations:
Jones: So you voted against Trump in 2016?
Kyasia Kraft: Yes.
Jones: But then in 2020, you voted for him?
Kyasia Kraft: Absolutely.
Jones: Why?
Kyasia Kraft: I saw how things were going during his first term, and I was pleasantly surprised, and I was pleased with what was happening. I saw the economy getting better. I saw country relations in certain areas getting better.
Kyasia Kraft: I don’t think the average American cares about that. I know I’m—frankly—I am sick and tired of seeing Black people sit there and complain about something, but not taking actionable steps to actually try to change things in an appropriate manner.
Jones: Under the Trump and Biden administration, they came to certain agreements with police departments to be less brutal toward the Black community. Trump has now ended all that. How does that help the Black community?
Kyasia Kraft: I have a lot of issues with police reform and just with how police officers are treated as a whole. My husband is currently going through the process to become a police officer. The amount of hatred that cops get—even the best ones—I think has become a huge problem, especially around election times, when it definitely comes out like, “Oh no, the cops are bad. The cops hate you because you’re Black.” They’re immediately deemed as evil.
Jones: If you had to do it all over again, would you vote for Donald Trump again, yes or no?
Detra German: Yes, I would. Now, in the future, I am not a die-hard Democrat or a die-hard Republican. If there were a Democratic candidate who was more aligned for me, then I would vote Democrat.
Jones: If you go back in time, would you vote for Donald Trump, yes or no?
Seth Dawkins: Yes.
Jones: I think I might know the answer on this next one. If you had to do it all over again, would you vote for Donald Trump, yes or no?
Kyasia Kraft: 1,000%. Absolutely yes.
