On the eve of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s holiday, Donald Trump sought to ease fears many in the African-American community have about his candidacy.
Appearing on ABC’s “This Week”, Trump said blacks would fare well under a Trump administration. Trump says he agrees with those who say King’s dream hasn’t been realized.
“I agree with them, especially under President Obama. We have an African American president and the black youth, the African American youth has essentially never done worse,” Trump said.
“You look at the unemployment in the 50s, you look at African American people that are 30, and 35 and 40 in the height of their strength and life. President Obama, an African American, has done a terrible job for African Americans,” he added.
“Donald Trump will do a great job for African Americans. I’ll bring back jobs to this country from china and many other places, and I’ll let people work and make a great living. I will be great for African Americans.”
In Nov. of 2015 Trump tweeted a photo claiming that most whites are killed by blacks, but according to FBI data from 2014, 82 percent of whites were killed by other whites and only 15 percent were killed by blacks.
“I have a great relationship with the blacks. I’ve always had a great relationship with the blacks,” Trump said in November.When many black pastors decided not to meet with or endorse Trump, as had been previously planned, Trump blamed Black Lives Matter.
“Probably some of the Black Lives Matter folks called them up, said ‘Oh, you shouldn’t be meeting with Trump because he believes that all lives matter,’” he said.
Oh really?? Your thoughts?
