There is a deep cultural memory in the American Black community of the government abusing their power to victimize people. The lawfare against Trump is as anti-American as what many Blacks endured for a century. That being said, I don’t expect Blacks to abandon Biden in any serious numbers.

Biden’s Black supporters, who make up about a fifth of his political base, were considerably less likely than his white backers to respond in the poll that they were voting to stop Trump, 37% to 65%.

 

Black Democrats were also less likely than white Democrats to say they were worried about a presidential candidate stealing an election or partisan state legislatures overturning its results. Black voters in the U.S. have skewed heavily Democratic for decades.
