Newsmax turns to Donald Trump Jr.'s fiancée to speak for 'Black women'
Newsmax host Rob Schmidt asked Trump campaign surrogate Kimberly Guilfoyle to speak on behalf of Black women after the network reported that Joe Biden would not seek the Democratic presidential nomination.
During an interview at the Republican National Convention Thursday, Guilfoyle discussed unverified Newsmax's reporting that Biden would step aside without endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris as the nominee.
"This is being reported, though, from Mark Halperin, that this is imminent," Schmidt told Guilfoyle. "And he's going to drop out. He's not going to endorse Kamala Harris."
"But the bottom line is, is that there isn't anybody that's really going to want to step into that role to go against Donald Trump with the strength and momentum of this campaign, of this convention," Guilfoyle asserted. "So what's very interesting, if it's true that he is, in fact, not going to endorse Kamala Harris and take it to an open convention, that's going to be a free-for-all."
"And I mean, recent polling shows, I mean, we have Kamala looking worse than Joe Biden in these swing states," Schmidt said. "If they do that, how are Black women going to respond when you try to subvert the woman on the screen?"

"Well, they're going to be very unhappy," Guilfoyle speculated. "I mean, Joe Biden chose her because he said she was the best person to serve as vice president of the United States."
"But to pass over her is going to be a huge problem, probably with African-American Black voters, Black women voters, all of the above."
