“I Love My Black Job”: Simone Biles Seemingly Takes Swipe At Donald Trump After Olympic Triumph

Simone Biles has celebrated her latest Olympic triumph with an apparent swipe at Donald Trump.

The decorated gymnast won her second gold medal at Paris 2024 — and the sixth of her career — in the individual all-around event, cementing her self-embraced status as the GOAT (greatest of all time).

On Friday morning, she reflected on her latest moment of glory with a post on Twitter/X that read: “I love my black job.”

She was responding to a comment from Ricky Davila, a singer-songwriter from Philadelphia. “Simone Biles being the GOAT, winning Gold medals and dominating gymnastics is her black job,” Davila said.

Biles’ post appeared to be a reference to comments made by Trump on Wednesday, when he spoke at the National Associate of Black Journalists convention.

The former president told a roomful of Black journalists that immigrants are taking “Black jobs.” He said: “I will tell you that coming from the border, are millions and millions of people that happen to be taking Black jobs.”

Asked to explain the baseless remark, Trump added: “A Black job is anybody that has a job. That’s what it is.”

During the same event in Chicago, Trump threw shade on whether Vice President Kamala Harris is actually Black. “I’ve known her for a long time indirectly, directly, very much,” Trump exclaimed. “And she was always of Indian heritage and she was promoting Indian heritage. I didn’t know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black, and now she wants to be known as Black. So I don’t know, is she Indian, or is she Black?”
