Political commentator Angela Rye is fed up with the spread of misinformation, especially after Sexxy Red’s approval of Donald Trump’s presidential performance. Rye took to X to explain the facts, and refute the false claims made by the rapper.
Rye began her video series by questioning the praise Trump was receiving, and urged people to look into his past. “To Sexyy Red and everyone else who’s found themselves in the camp for ‘Blacks for Trump,’ I would invite you to look into his record,” Rye said. “I’m coming to you all as someone who definitely by admission politically privileged…so I am trying to step and lean into grace to meet you where you are because some of this misinformation, some of these ‘facts,’ have to be fact-checked.”
Sexxy Red’s comments, made on Theo Von’s This Past Weekend web show, mentioned Trump's stimulus check, and the racism he has perpetuated for decades. Rye was clear that her response videos were for the purpose of informing the Black community on Trump’s true record, and said, “This video isn’t just about Sexxy Red. This video series are really to ensure that Black folks who are for Trump or just might be by default understand what he’s really done or not done for us.”
To back up her claims, Rye dug into Trump’s history, citing his 1973 Department of Justice lawsuit for housing discrimination and his baseless questioning of Barack Obama’s citizenship. Rye also debunked the notion that Trump pardoned many Black people during his presidency, revealing that he in fact pardoned the least number of people since 1945.
Rye then clarified that the “Trump Checks” were actually an act of Congress, and that Biden’s stimulus check was more substantial. She concluded her video series with a question of whether or not Sexxy Red’s opinion will change after hearing the facts.
Overall, Angela Rye wants to ensure the Black community is informed on Trump’s record and the facts about his presidency, so they can make a better decision about who to support for the 2024 campaign.
