What policies does Trump have that other Republican Presidents didn't?


First Step Act
Opportunity Zones
HBCU Funding (long-term vs. making them grovel annually)
Platinum Plan

To name the easiest ones, of course. What he’s done that other republicans have not is to believe that he had a chance with the black community and be willing to sit down with them and develop plans in partnership with them versus telling them what they need from his own perspective. GOP candidates have long written off minority voters; but they SHOULD NOT and they CANNOT. Hispanic voters are a HUGE opportunity for the GOP and black voters are clearly willing to listen if we put forth ideas that will truly help them.

None of those are "his" policies, although I give him credit for getting them done.

Platinum Plan



That's a plan, not a policy. I do give him credit for having a plan that's specific to the black community.

The Dems promote personality more than policy. Conservative policies are better for individuals and families. I just don't want Conservatives to fall into that. Stay on the policies.

Good reply.
