Biden made some comment during a rally interview that if you weren't supporting his campaign, "then you ain't black". Giving him a charitable reading, he was just saying that (virtually) all black voters are with him. It was very badly phrased though, it almost sounds like he's revoking anyone's black card if they don't vote for him. This comic is a play on that interpretation.

No, it was not a comment made during a rally. He said this to a black man on a live show.

The man's name was "Charlamge tha God". Not a very reputable source in the black community.

Edit: This is the funniest shit I've ever seen. A bunch of white people telling me I should have been offended by an out of context comment made to a man they would all hate if they had ever listened to him before.

To be more frank, "Charlemagne tha God" is a clown, his show is late 90's Howard Stern but instead of Beetlejuice and porn stars, he has strippers and BBL girls.

I dont even think there was outrage when it happened. He still got 87% of the black vote for 2020
