A caller on Wednesday told radio host Charlamagne Tha God that former President Donald Trump improved the country as he earned $100,000 during his tenure.

Voters trust Trump over Vice President Harris with handling the economy by 9%, but they trust the vice president more than they trusted President Joe Biden in May, according to a set of New York Times/Siena College polls released Saturday. A black voter from Memphis named OG Kind Heart called out Charlamagne on “The Breakfast Club” for supporting Harris and told the radio host America was “great” for him under Trump.

LISTEN:

“Man, Charlamagne you be tap dancing like a muh, man. You got to cut that stuff out, bruh. Is you on Kamala payroll or something? Cut it out, bruh for real,” the caller said. “The coonery you be doing, you got to stop. I thought you was my OG.”

“So, you’re calling up here yelling and screaming at me about MAGA, but I’m the one tap dancing?” Charlamagne asked.

OG Kind Heart asked Charlamagne what the issue is with “making America great again,” with the radio host retorting by asking when America was “great for [his] black ass.”

“It’s been great for me in 2016 when I made $100,000 when Donald Trump became in office and I wasn’t listening to the media tell me that this was somebody to hate,” the caller responded.

Pollster Frank Luntz on Monday said that Trump is “giving away” an election that should be winnable because of his lead on the top issues for Americans. However, he said Trump is losing to Harris based on “attributes.”

“There are issues, attributes and the conditions of the country. The issues and conditions favor Donald Trump. He should be winning this election, but the attributes are so much in Harris’ favor that he’s not,” the pollster said.

“The best example, you did the story on the [United Auto Workers] — why is Donald Trump saying publicly, ‘I want to fire’ the same people that he’s getting now, still getting, union members?” Luntz asked. “It is ridiculous. It’s as though he’s lost control. And I know that there are billionaires who watch this show, who are spending a lot of money on Donald Trump, and they don’t understand why he’s committing political suicide.”

The UAW levied federal labor charges against Trump and billionaire Elon Musk on Tuesday for allegedly “attempting to intimidate and threaten workers” during their Monday interview.

However, Charlamagne on Tuesday said the interview demonstrates why many people appreciate Trump’s message.

“I heard them talk about the border extensively, and I heard them talk about the economy extensively. And that is why Trump resonates with so many people because he’s speaking to the issues,” Charlamagne said. “And those are the two major issues — folks don’t care about all the other stuff as long as what they care about is being addressed. People want to know how they’re going to have more money in their pocket and how they’re going to feel safe.”

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
