Do you think President Trump will improve the inner cities of America?

Or do you think its just political talk? And if he does succeed in improving the lives of inner city Americans, what impact will that have on the election in 2020?

it sure will be refreshing to have someone who will actually try

Best way to improve it is put up a fence and hand out guns with unlimited ammo

I think he really does want to.

Dems, feel free to actually engage in the conversation rather than down voting

We are talking more about them now compared to at any point during the outgoing POTUS term(s).

What is his plan to improve inner cities? Please provide specifics.

Can't get much worse. I mean what do they have to lose?

Hard to say as much of what afflicts inner cities is local politics. With that said, if his idea of "help" is pumping more money into law enforcement, it's likely not to be well received.

This.

He will make an honest effort but most of those people are too fricking stupid to. Enhelped. The best thing he can hope for is getting better education for the ones their that are really trying but stuck in poverty. The others he needs to go in and raid their homes for guns and drugs and just lock them up and remove them from the neighborhood so the decent people no longer live in fear.

That's easy to say. So what specifically should he do the opposite of?
Republicans and Trump are scant on ideas to actually improve inner cities because they have zero interest in doing so. This is to answer the OP.

ETA: if he wasnt interested in helping, he would never had brought the subject up. He would never had asked for help. He wouldnt have appointed Carson in charge of HUD. He wouldnt have been the first Republican candidate to actually attempt to speak to the Black community.

Literally anything would be an improvement over the last eight years. The bar isn't exactly very high. I hope he focuses on education and by focus I mean remove government influence.
