The Last Hurrah!

Republicans, you need to find a better way to win over Black voters.

Someone decided to use an AI voice of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in a desperate attempt to court Black voters to support former president Donald J. Trump.

This is the last hurrah!

Vote.

Vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.

Dr. Bernice King and Martin Luther King III demand the the X handle @MAGAResource remove the video. They said that the video is disinformation and trademark violation.

The video is still up and it is a dozy!

In a video posted to the social platform X, the account @MAGAResource shares a “deepfake” video of King praising Trump.

“We’ve been told again and again that we cannot vote for the man that did more for the Black community than any other president,” the ad begins, with King’s famed baritone. “If a Black man dares speak out in support of Donald Trump, a Democrat is always there to call that man an Uncle Tom, a house negro or even worse.”

The ad alleged that Democrats are failing Black Americans and have taken the demographic for granted for decades. 

The account the video was posted to is not officially affiliated with the Trump campaign. 

Bernice King denounced the video, demanding the account delete it and saying that it stands in opposition to everything her father was for. 

“It’s vile, fake, irresponsible, and not at all reflective of what my father would say,” King wrote. “And you gave no thought to our family.”

The King family has become increasingly involved in the 2024 presidential race, with some members endorsing first President Biden then Vice President Harris. They have repeatedly denounced Trump, particularly as the GOP nominee has continually invoked the civil rights legend’s name. 

Delete this, @MAGAResource. It’s vile, fake, irresponsible, and not at all reflective of what my father would say. And you gave no thought to our family. https://t.co/v03vZmlwfO

Trump has falsely claimed that his 2020 inauguration speech drew the same number of people to the National Mall as the March on Washington that saw King give his famous “I Have a Dream” speech.

He also compared North Carolina’s GOP gubernatorial candidate, Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson, to King. Robinson reportedly described himself as a “black Nazi” on an online message board, and has faced a deluge of scandals throughout the campaign.

The fabricated video comes at a time when both parties are concerned about the role of deepfakes influencing voters, with both candidates having been targets of AI-generated videos over the course of the campaign.  

Vice President Kamala Harris hosted her final rallies with Lady Gaga, Oprah Winfrey, Katy Perry and Alicia Keys. The vice president also took time to honor Quincy Jones, the famed music producer and media mogul.

Former president Donald J. Trump is late at his final three rallies. His final rally at Grand Rapids was supposed to start at 9:00pm but he is over two hours late.

Let me clear up some things.

The Democratic Party has nominated two women for president. The Democrats had nominated two African Americans for president. The Democrats have elected African American men for governor. The Democratic Party has three African American senators in the current session. The Democratic Party has its top leader being an African American. The Democratic National Committee has its party leader being an African American.

If the Republican Party nominates a Black person as their presidential nominee.... then they won't be the party of white supremacy.

Byron Donalds, Wesley Hunt, Burgess Owens, John James, Tim Scott and Black MAGAland make only 2% of the Republican Party. The Republican Party is 92% cocaine and 8% what else.

Republicans stop using MLK in your propaganda. If he was alive, y'all would have vilified him like Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and Black Lives Matter.
