A grassroots conservative activist who helped campaign for President Donald Trump’s election in 2016 said that more and more black and Latino people are gravitating away from the Democratic Party, arguing that the current attempts to focus on identity politics are losing their power.

“I do countless interviews. I do countless speeches everywhere all the time,” Bishop Aubrey Shines, founder and pastor of G2G Ministries in Tampa Bay, Florida, and founder of the Conservative Clergy of Color, told The Epoch Times’ CrossRoads. Elaborating further, he said his events are “a little microcosm of America every single weekend, and I get a chance to hear it. I have those that are PhDs, but I also have those that have been incarcerated for long periods of time.”
