The black population statistically has lower socioeconomic standing. This is not a moral judgment. If you believe it’s racist and bad to speak accurately about reality and the world around us, well, luckily there’s a political party for you


There's a huge difference between what you said and what he said.

You've said that blacks and Hispanics are disadvantaged and earn less. Trump essentially said that "black jobs" are the jobs that are being taken by illegal immigrants. So, essentially that jobs for black people are low income, hourly jobs, frequently requiring no education or no training, that any physical body can come in and do. Jobs like farm labor, house cleaning, day labor jobs, sweat shop factory jobs (like crab picking on the Chesapeake). He's said that jobs that are traditionally black are the bottom of the barrel jobs.

Illegal immigrants are not coming in to take jobs that require degrees, work in offices or require training and knowledge. Those are the jobs that many blacks are making advances in acquiring, but those are not the jobs that are being threatened by illegal immigrants. The jobs that blacks aspire to, are apparently not "black jobs". The jobs that illegal immigrants qualify for, are apparently "black jobs".

If you can't see the difference between what he said and what you said, then you are a lost cause.


Very weird take of. We have 100,000 of Russians crossed the border since the war began, hundreds of thousands of Chinese. Most of them are college educated and fluent in English. They are taking office jobs. Your assumption that blacks only work at the farms is racist.

"Hispanic jobs" is even worse, IMHO. Much bigger voting block and more likely to be swing voters than black voters.

Unfortunately, Trump had been making progress on black and Hispanic voters. His numbers were increasing over the last year as more and more people including minorities were feeling disenfranchised by the Democratic party. There were some that were thinking that neither party cared much about their demographic, so they were going to vote based on other issues and concerns.

Hopefully, this is a wake-up call for minority voters that had felt that way and that the slide will be back towards the Democratic platform. They need to realize that despite the fact that minority issues are not as strongly pushed as they had been in years past, that there is still a world of difference in the focus of the two parties. One may only be at a status quo level towards their issues, but the other party is sliding backwards in advances for their demographic.

Trump was actively disrespecting black and Hispanic Americans by using those words. He was being a huge pr#ck.

Words actually mean something. Stop telling people what to feel or think.


How is a “black job” worse than Biden saying “if you don’t vote for me, you ain’t black” or Hillary saying she is “no ways tired”, or Kamala saying she loved listening to rap /Tupac when she was at Howard U when she went to college in the early- mid 80s lol.

These things have all been mocked to extremes on Black Twitter and social media. “Black jobs” hasn’t because it’s a non starter and inoffensive . The media is making it a thing to try and shame Trump but it won’t work with black voters who are smarter than to get offended by that. Trump has said far worse and far more shocking things probably in the past month than “black jobs”

The Democrat pandering is far more offensive and hilarious.

They are all trying to get the cool that Obama naturally had but epic failing .


Uh, what? "Black jobs" is being mocked mercilessly on Black Twitter/social media.

Example one of thousands:

They don’t know any black people. Black people didn’t like criminal justice being the bat signal for them by the Dems. Trump is on the right track by targeting immigration because if you actually knew black people, you would know illegals immigrants are being shoved to blue states and cities where they live and taking resources, jobs, housing in their districts . A homeless black veteran can’t get the resources a border hopping illegal who isn’t American and doesn’t speak English can get . They can sleep at an elementary school without any vetting of their past or where they are from

Blacks will always vote D. It’s against their best interests to vote R and they know it. That would be the end of every benefit and social safety net they enjoy.

"These Negroes, they're getting pretty uppity these days and that's a problem for us since they've got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we've got to do something about this, we've got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference... I'll have them nxxxers voting Democratic for the next two hundred years".

Lyndon Baines Johnson 1963



Ouch.

Makes no difference if Biden walks up on stage wearing a klan outfit. Blacks will always reliably vote Democratic.

They know that Republicans do not have their best interests in mind and just want to lock up poor black kids, strip away DEI, and completely dismantle every benefit for preferential hiring practices that help them.
