Viral Video Resurfaces Of Diddy Praising Kamala Harris, Trashing Trump: "White Men Like Trump Need To Be Banished"

In the clip from an interview from 2020, both men are seen championing Harris’s leadership, particularly among black voters, and dismissing any critiques of her record. 

Diddy and Charlamagne exchanged views on the 2020 election, with Diddy focusing on the need to remove Donald Trump from office, which he describes as a top priority. “White men like Trump need to be banished,” he declared, foreseeing the possibility of a “race war” if Trump remains in power. 

The extremist rhetoric intensifies as Diddy positions himself as a “Black nationalist” and warns that violence might be unavoidable if social inequalities persist. He argues that black success, even at the highest levels, is hindered by systemic discrimination, saying, “They still treat us like [we’re lesser],” naming himself, Jay-Z, and Oprah as examples of prominent figures allegedly facing racial challenges. 

Charlamagne, who acknowledges Diddy’s concerns, probes further by asking, “Sound to me like you think we’re on the verge of a civil war.” Diddy replied, “If Trump’s in office, there’s going to be bloodshed,” suggesting violence as a potential response. 

Both men then expressed admiration for Kamala Harris’s historic nomination, with Charlamagne describing it as “a historic, beautiful day,” and Diddy adding that it moved him as a father to three daughters. 

Diddy, who now faces numerous allegations of rape of men, women, and children, along with other forms of abuse, might not be the best candidate to bolster Harris’s credibility, especially considering the image she's attempting to project as a champion for women and principled prosecutor. 

The most recent lawsuits filed against Diddy involve a range of accusations: several men allege sexual abuse and coercion, including incidents with minors during auditions for Making the Band, a reality show he produced. Additionally, lawsuits describe instances where he allegedly used his influence and power to intimidate and exploit young individuals in the entertainment industry, including a reported incident with a 16-year-old boy at a party in the Hamptons in 1998.

As the Democratic ticket seeks support from influential voices within black media, many are worried Diddy's endorsement reflects poorly on Harris’s judgment and character, especially among those concerned with integrity in leadership. In this environment, the video resurfaces as a moment that may do more harm than good for Harris’s campaign.
