Americans of all backgrounds are experiencing economic success in the Trump economy
you keep repeating this lie that somehow Trump has helped out blacks on purpose as if it was his plan
However, even at an annual rate of 6.6 percent, the black unemployment rate was still more than double the white unemployment rate of 3.2 percent in 2018.
The black unemployment rate has been about double the white unemployment rate for more than four decades,
The Trump administration should be judged by what they do to keep the rate down, and to close the persistent 2-to-1 racial disparity. That would be a truly historic accomplishment worthy of everyone attending the State of the Union rising to their feet in thunderous applause.
