Nice try but the conversation was about how he helped the black community and I was trying to ask how.

and why do you think DEMs care about illegal aliens ???
I almost forgot that was you guys make-believe enemy this time around. It's like Republican leaders always find an outside threat for you guys to fret over and then act like Democrats don't care about it. It's like the easiest manipulation of ever seeing you guys buy it every single time.
During the midterms I actually knew people in my family that were blaming democrats for the borders. I tried to explain that they've literally been that way since the beginning of the United States but alas Fox News brainwashes people to the extent that they can't think straight

I think you're one of the people he was talking about. You guys have like three comebacks that you use all of the time. But it's a quick way in identifying those people that are part of the cult

All populism is cultish
Btw: you're also a populist. One that doesn't understand economics.

This coming from a guy who thinks the free market will solve everything. So right back at you.

He increased funding to HBCU schools, changed criminal justice reform, the economy is booming leading to historically low black unemployment, he has also created Opportunity Zones which spur investments into disadvantaged communities.
But alas, he is cutting food stamps and other crutches for the poor so many see him as a bad man because they accept no personal responsibility

We dont have a free market. Govt interventionism screwed that up.

Stop right there. If you think living in the robber baron days would give us some more fair and Equitable Society then you are just too stupid to have a conversation with. There are plenty of other things that we as a society have to solve together without profit as a motive.

Not free market. Far from it.
Cronyism.
It's fun talking economics with economic simpletons.

"Guys" like ebbandmelt can't even let an innocent phone call from the president go by without completely melting into oblivion.

Our historic first orange President will be even more ebullient as we win our 10th National Championship as his third term winds down. Both LSU and America are winning Bigly !

So you're saying there's no practical application of it actually working? I guess that puts you as no better than an idealist socialist. Several systems would work very well if people weren't such pieces of crap.
So just out of curiosity how is the free market helping lack of freshwater in places like California? How's it helping the opioid crisis? So many things that the free market doesn't solve because you're assuming the people know how to control themselves and take all ethical steps towards getting profit. I guess that means you're of psychological simpleton. It also seems like you don't know very much what you're talking about when it comes to economics because of your assumptions

He increased funding to HBCU schools,
He lifted a ban that prevented funding for religious-based institutions.
"Around the same time, Education Secretary Betsy DeVos was criticized for calling HBCUs "pioneers when it comes to school choice." Critics said DeVos' statement ignored the fact that HBCUs were established in response to Jim Crow laws, which prevented black students from attending public institutions.
Trump has also questioned the basis for federal funding for HBCUs, saying, according to NPR, that "it benefits schools on the basis of race."
Hmmmm

changed criminal justice reform
I actually did something a Democrat would do. I guess you're saying that Democrats had the right idea about Criminal Justice Reform. Glad to see he changed his ways from the time he took out an ad to accuse those five kids of being rapists. Maybe he can work with the Democrats on changing some more stuff that Republicans typically don't like changing. Maybe we can start with for-profit prisons.
quote:
the economy is booming leading to historically low black unemployment
Interesting quote but it really doesn't mean anything. You have no way of making that correlation. It's just another talking point that doesn't mean anything.
I order ubereats and doordash and when I'm traveling I take Uber and Lyft. That's a business that is only 4 to 5 years old. Now there are many more drivers that do it. So you would expect unemployment would be lower with so many more opportunities and many people that deliver my food are of color. I don't think Donald Trump made that possible for them.
Also the economy isnt "booming" but it is doing well in certain areas and very poorly in others. It really started in on the upswing after Obama steered us out of the Republican George W bush mess and all of the bailouts.
quote:

Surely you can explain to me how that works.
quote:

There is some truth to this especially when it comes to personal responsibility. But in general, cutting aid for the poor isn't viewed favorably. Especially from a guy that was sued for his fraudulent University that took advantage of Working Class People.
He is no champion of the poor nor the working class man protector

If he builds a bridge for LC like he says he will, he will easily become my favorite POTUS.
And I shook hands with GWB in Kosovo, so that’s saying a lot.

Was that before or after his administration started a campaign that would sentence over half a million people to death? But Yeah handshakes are cool I guess
