Guess what? Trump is the first president in an awfully long time to actually do something about the unemployment rate in black communities. In case you've been living under a rock, black UE is at record lows. Perhaps if Trump can get elected for a 2nd term some of these communities would turn around and prosper. Now, unless you're a racist and determined to keep blacks from getting ahead, I'm sure you'd support that. Right?
Your nonsense is noted and has been addressed in this thread already. Name the legislation Trump passed for the Black community.
Black unemployment is not by Trump's design. Your ilk literally says Obama did NOTHING for the Black community. And now you want to say we should thank Trump for not adding any new legislation or resources for Black communities and just piggybacking off Obama?
I guarantee if Trump could have his way, he'd take every job that was added in Baltimore and move it to Boise.

The disparity between unemployment rates between black and white is the same during Trump's presidency as prior to it. The black unemployment rate had been falling for 7 years under Obama. As was the white unemployment rate. Did you credit Obama? if so post a link where you did. We will wait.

Tax cuts. Tariffs. Efforts (resisted mighty by leftists) to limit criminal aliens-who depress employment and wages for black Americans. And I seem to recall he was the president that actually passed prison reform and released blacks imprisoned for minor drug crimes. Gotta wonder-why didn't Obozo do a fraction as much to help the black community?

Was black unemployment at a record low under Obama? If so, post a link. We'll wait. (In fact, in 8 years under Obama, overall UE never got down to the lowest level it was at under GWB)
Trump always claims that. What exactly did he do that achieved that? What program did he institute?
If all you do is listen to liberal media they won't tell you. If you don't understand then you can't be helped, it takes more than one post, there is no magic wand but there is getting rid of policies meant to keep people needing gov't.

So Trump passes legislation that benefits the ENTIRE economy... Trump is saving Black America
Obama passes legislation that benefits the ENTIRE economy... Obama has done nothing for Black America.
And where was this kumbaya spirit when Obama was lifting up the entire economy, and you and your ilk repeatedly said... Obama had done NOTHING for Black people?
Nevermind that this same economy which Trump inherited is being used like a bludgeon to tell Black folks we should be so grateful to have Donald Trump looking out for us?
You keep moving the bar... and moving the bar... and moving the bar... I give you an answer, and now it's something else.
The reason Clinton lost the election is because of the economy, and many black folk stayed home. That's just the fact. You keep fighting against the truth. I am being totally straight with you.
I just posted the article - income from black families were down $900 for most of his presidency.
There was article after article at the end of his term about how Obama failed the economy, and his side paid for it. Clinton should have easily won. It wasn't the Russians - it was the economy. Obama put sludge in the American economic engine with the myriad of regulations. Trump cleaned out the engine.
And again - it is solely not about black folk. We are all citizens here. I can't help you if you have a problem with that, and for you to be satisfied, you need to see blacks rise while whites fall. It doesn't work that way if you want to live in a sound country.

Relative to white unemployment it was the same under Obama as Trump. What action or plan did Trump institute to specifically lower black unemployment? I'll wait.
