Trump ushered in lowest black unemployment ever, and celebrated that fact at the SOTU while all the democrats sat there miserable.

Trump spearheaded criminal justice reform, which I don't happen to like but which nonetheless disproportionately helps blacks.

Trump worked with Senator Tim Scott (who is black), to create "economic opportunity zones" in impoverished urban areas, to incentivize businesses to invest there.

Trump is a huge proponent of school choice.

Are those the acts of a Klansman?
He has done more for Blacks than anyone since Lincoln! My stomach hurts.

So what exactly did Trump do that impacted Black unemployment that didn't impact non- Black unemployment?

Scott - One of the few Black Repubs. I guess you pointed it out to show that the Repubs. can't be racist bc there is a few Blacks in the party.

I completely agree most common racists are Trump supporters. Shows how stupid they are, because Trump has done a lot for blacks.

"He has done more for Blacks than anyone since Lincoln! My stomach hurts"

I never said that. I quoted you. You responded, as beaten liberals always do, with "but Trump".

But he has done an awful lot for blacks.

"So what exactly did Trump do that impacted Black unemployment that didn't impact non- Black unemployment?"

(1) a rising tide lifts all boats. Black unemployment had more room to decrease.

(2) he created the economic opportunity zones with Senator Tim Scott. Disproportionately helps blacks.

Your response?

I never said that. I quoted you. You responded, as beaten liberals always do, with "but Trump".I never claimed you said that. So you responded as an angry person - as you always do. You can't help yourself - you're a vile angry person.

Rising tide lifts all boats means he really did nothing specifically for Blacks.

The opportunity zones provided some benefit for residents but was funded by the wealthiest Americans.

Neither of those does that much for Blacks vs Lincoln.

The economic opportunity zones, disproportionately help blacks. Criminal justice reform, disproportionately helps blacks. School choice, disproportionately helps blacks. Which of those statements is false?

Paul, ask your self this. Would you be this resistive to giving the president credit for helping blacks, if Hilary had won and had the same exact results as Trump? Or would you be saying she deserves the Nobel Prize?

I don't like Trump as a person. But nevertheless, until we shut ourselves down by choice, blacks were way better off than they were on his first day. Obama deserves some credit for that. Trump deserves some credit for that.

I'm sorry you don't like those facts. Facts don't care about you feelings towards Trump.
