That's not true. The first blacks elected to Office were Republicans.
Republican party was founded by white Christians and blacks.
Blacks voted Gop until LBJ.
Blacks are merely coming back home.
I stand corrected! Thank you for the history lesson. Not since President Dwight D. Eisenhower has any Republican received the support of black Americans.
You would have to go back to before the Civil Rights Act to see a more diverse Republican coalition. https://archive.is/nTJ6M, and this is from the left-wing Newsweek.
Thank you to u/1baldeagle for the history lesson!

Thanks to you for starting the discussion. These things need to be discussed . I am humbled by your classy response.
The statistic I saw was 12% same as in 2020. Does someone have a legitimate source showing something better?
