A Black Lives Matter (BLM) leader has announced his endorsement of President Donald Trump while warning that Democrat presidential candidate Kamala Harris “would be a disaster for this country.”
Mark Fisher, a co-founder of BLM Rhode Island, made the endorsement during an interview with The New York Post on the eve of Election Day.
Fisher, a “lifelong Democrat,” asserted that he “definitely would not be supporting Kamala Harris.”
“Kamala Harris would use anything to her advantage,” Fisher warned.
“I definitely would not be supporting Kamala Harris.
“If she ever got anywhere close to power, it would be a disaster for this country.”
Three years ago, Fisher led the BLM Rhode Island’s effort to demand Democrat Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) resign or sever ties with an all-white and exclusive Newport Beach club.
Fisher explained further to the Post that the Democrats have been the party black people overwhelmingly voted for, despite their historic ties to slavery and the Ku Klux Klan.
The activist noted that black people never “got anything in return” for supporting Democrats.
He also cited “abysmal” poverty and crime and a “failing” education system in black communities.
Fisher said he voted for President Joe Biden in 2020, a decision he “regrets.”
“For so long, we’ve just been blindly loyal to the Democrat Party – for no reason,” Fisher told the Post.
“They have given us no reason to have such loyalty – to maintain such loyalty – to them,” he added.
Fisher first endorsed the GOP presidential nominee in November 2023.
At the time, he told Fox News that “the Democratic Party is not for us.”
The national BLM organization and the BLM Rhode Island PAC have distanced themselves from Fisher over his views.
The far-left groups have dismissed Fisher as an “imposter” activist and called his endorsement of Trump “a publicity stunt.”
Fisher clarified that he is the co-founder of Black Lives Matter Rhode Island, an organization separate from the BLM Rhode Island PAC.
Furthermore, the national BLM organization and the BLM Rhode Island PAC clarified that they do not support Trump and that anyone can start a BLM chapter.
The left-wing organization denounced Harris being chosen as the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee.
BLM called for the Democratic National Convention to hold a primary process to select a candidate.
Fisher currently leads a Maryland-based organization called “BLM INCORPORATED.”
According to BLM INCORPORATED’s website, the organization seeks to create opportunities for “entrepreneurship education” and “financial empowerment” in the black community.
The organization recently launched a Black Legacy & Resource Library and a Business & Innovation Center in Maryland.
The group dubbed the effort a “Black Lives Matter educational centerpiece.”
