African-American unemployment was at the lowest rate since it first had been tracked decades ago before the Wuhan virus ravaged our economy. Don't you find it interesting that this rate was lower under Trump than it was under the faux first African-American President and the real first African-American President?
Economics is obviously not a field I thrive in.....or even feel of adequate knowledge to debate, but I’d think sustainable employment is a long term thing. Records reached after years of gains, so the credit should be given at least a little to O as he did steadily lift us out of W’s massive recession and handed Trump a healthy economy to rev.

The unemployment rate was lower under Trump than BO duh. Blacks are dying at a greater rate than others now too. Trump doesn't do himself favors w/blacks when he rips on BO. Trump will lose the black vote badly, that is all.

Not so brilliant pivot there, schMoe. "OBooma" asked a question, so I answered it, and, as he spins in a desperate attempt to give Obama credit for what Trump's economy did for blacks, you're right here to change the subject entirely. Reread my post and the context in which it was made. Unlike fools such as yourself, I don't make wildly speculative predictions about which group of people is going to vote for whom.

You should have stopped with the first part of your first sentence. You have no fvcking clue about which you post. No, Obama doesn't get credit for a spike in African-American employment, which occurred after Trump had changed the make-up of heavy-handed federal agencies and rolled back Obama's oppressive regulations. That's not how this works. Your post lacks any factual support.

I love the OBooma moniker, sewing as how I didn’t vote for the man in ‘12, but whateva better than being a Buckeye posting on a WV discussion board

It’s not a fact that the unemployment rate dropped every year from 9.9% in 2009 until big O left office in ‘16?

You probably tore a rotator cuff by raising your white flag so fast. I wish that my wife would surrender as quickly and easily as you do, SlowMoe.
Ok, in sentence one of post 82 I explained your "interesting" finding to you. Since the unemployment rate was down for everyone under Trump of course the unemployment rate for blacks was down as well and there's really nothing interesting about that. You seem to think that old unemployment stat will be meaningful for Trump in the election. I say good luck with that then I gave you two other reasons that Trump will not do well with blacks. No pivoting or changing of subjects occurred. If you're not talking about the election, great then enjoy my analysis since I was.

Thanks for admitting what wonders Trump's economy did for all American groups. As you attempt to rationalize as to why blacks' unemployment rates hit historical lows under Trump, take a look at a New York Times article published on 2/7/20, in which your favorite newspaper's reporters stated that THE WAGES OF AFRICAN-AMERICANS FINALLY SURGED AFTER A DECADE OF STAGNATION. Perhaps, you and Obooma should put your (pin) heads together, and figure out as to how you can give Obama credit for this phenomenon, too.

Fair enough. I’d appreciate it if you were specific about what it is about reality I don’t accept. And though I surely understand the power of the media, I also recognize that BO and all liberals/ Democrats were and are constantly chastised by FOX news and the like (and before you throw a bunch of letters at me - it’s bragged about many many times on here alone that FOX is the highest rated news network), so I don’t think it’s absurd to say that in regards to politics - conservatives and Republican get just as much (or maybe even more) cover and support from “the media” as BO or Hillary.

Now, licking big, you were talking down to me just yesterday I think about not maintaining a linear conversation in my threads (even though, with so many commenting it does tend to get a little difficult), so I’m trying to understand where Trump’s record or efforts for blacks or your investments fall in line with the accusations of deep state shadow control over actions from top brass within our nation’s DOJ and IC?

Now, I admit, in my desire to see Barrack Obama use his historical position and charisma to change the rusted structure of our political system, I was hypocritical to believe his acceptance of deep pocketed lobby capital could be ignored once he took the oath. However, once I realized it wasn’t the case, I chose not to vote him a second term. As far as the topic at hand, in the attempt to maintain linear civility and respect to posters like you who are obviously more intelligent than myself, my point all along is that it EITHER has to be a structure of invisible government supported by power players in BOTH parties, or it simply cannot exist.

I just don’t think it’s logically sound to believe that this type of invisible shadow government can maintain under both party leaderships, unless recognized and accepted by both party leaderships. Comey, Mueller, Clapper - if THE, PAXXX, DOG, DAVE’s et al theory carries any weight in my mind - it means Trump is literally attempting to burn down a structure supported by BOTH conservatives and liberals, Republicans and Democrats that have held high office for the last 3-4 decades and maybe even further back. To tie this off as JUST a Obama/Clinton/liberal molestation of our political structure, to me, is ridiculous and illogical. Any talk otherwise sounds partisan to me, and so I meet it with partisan thinking as well.

Now in an attempt to address your non-linear assertions: I vote Dem more than Republican because I am concerned for the planet’s health, I don’t trust corporate America, and I believe in public schools and working class support, and Dem policies seem to align with those more often than not. I have plenty of non political reasons to not like Trump as a man, but as a politician I don’t see much that is different. Now if he burns down this invisible shadow government in a way we all can see - that will change.

An I’d love for you to explain in detail what it is he has done for blacks and your investments that you cherish so much. Because if it’s just “record unemployment”, and high stock gains, I’m sorry, but, imo, it’s as simple as Trump throwing some gas on a burning fire and taking credit for the warmth. Let’s see how he deals with the down cycle too (not the COVID induced) before we rave about his genius.

there are several logical fallacies in this so I'll defer to your research on them to maybe, just maybe, self-awareness occurs and you improve whatever the hell you are trying to say here. But you are trying and so I am a patient man whose primary goal in life is to help the sick, improve the needy, and redirect the lost. I'm here for you. Set goals to get better, you can do it, yes we can.

What has he done for blacks? I'll refer you to polls were blacks have communicated life for them has gotten better. Young blacks particularly, which for me, is great because their minds are shaped away from government dependency the left sells. As they mature, they'll see the value of self-sufficiency and not government dependency. A portion then pass this value to the next generation. In my real life experiences, every black family member, friend, and associate I have was fully employed under Trump. Couldn't say that under BO. As far as my investments, I earned over $535K during his time in office right up to mid-Feb when the market fell. However, I never left it and since, I have recovered to now, just 12% shy of that mark making my total investment worth slight over 1.5 million. During BO's total 8 years I made a little more than $300K. I never changed strategy from BO to Trump. The bottom line is what it is...……..show me the money.

So I have real life examples of Trump's effect on blacks and my investments. .

Look at hasty generalization, genetic fallacy, and circular argument logical fallacies as a start. It may help you get redirected when you try to make a point. Remember, I am here for you.

Trump's economy continued the trend line BO established but it's all gone now. Remember the good times. Blacks will not reward Trump on election day.

Thanks teach. I appreciate your addressing the non linear portion of your response to the thread with such detail. Stock market and unemployment. Got it. I think I mentioned that, but sure we will just give Trump all the credit in the world for the might of the US economy.

by not addressing the point I made that has relevance to this thread, and instead directing me like a young grasshopper to my daily study, I assume you have no counterpoint. But only a nagging but driving need to be the smartest in the room. That’s fine. I like you guys, I enjoy learning from your brilliance. While I wouldn’t exactly call it apprenticeship, because of the slight element of disdain and a major element of pity, I do equate it to the relationship a student observer has with the mental patient he must evaluate.

I’ll watch you wail at the digital padded walls, and listen to your carefully designed rants. Although so much thrown out as insane drivel, some will be retained for my final analysis of your one lonesome mark on humanity’s sketch of living. As distorted and misaligned as some make it, there’s still art there to enjoy and analyze. As long as you can stomach some of the loudest and craziest artists, that usually make the smallest contribution.

Criminal justice reform I’ll give ya - although it’s been an agenda from the left for some time now. DJT gets the credit.

All else needs time to determine if it’s success or not, no?
No. The HBCs has an immediate impact.

The urban enterprise zones were working as well. Look at the black small business ownership numbers before and after.

It's Biff's attempt to take the offensive using anything Obama to distract from Pandemic and low poll numbers. Biffbots are all over it.
More like the Reds are doing anything they can to prolong the COVID impact in the hopes of hurting Trump on the economy.

You're running a kid sniffing pants ******* for President. I’m not at all in need of distracting from the Pandemic. Keep it front and center with Obamagate. We need to continue to focus on what’s happening in NY and Michigan. Keep all the liberals inside. I’m totally fine with it.

you are learning your place. It's progress and I'll take it.

Honestly, I didn't see value in addressing everything you posted. Not trying to insult, but it was simply too much I wasn't interested in.

I am interested in blacks and the economy. It's a black thing, you wouldn't understand.

this!

It's as simple as reversing any level of independence back to government dependency for vote.

Remember, everything the left proposes is aims at securing a vote to hold power.

It's Friday. I wonder what gets dropped this afternoon?

Will it be more preparing the ground, or will we have a substantive drop? I think it will be more ground prep. Will it be the missing Flynn 302? Or perhaps something more on the unmaskings? Or maybe the 702 searches/contractors? It could be about Obama's EO for spreading classified info between the different intel depts? What about Mifsud? Or Halper? Or more on the lovebird shenanigans? This could go so many different directions.

I am not convinced he wins.

Reds know they have to keep the pressure on to keep the economy from recovering until he out. They needed an external force, because they couldn't stop him themselves, like COVID. Their job now is to exploit COVID for political gain to hurt Trump getting reelected.

How can the guy holding several pressers a week about the pandemic and visiting PPE facilities weekly be trying to distract from the topic?

I feel sorry for you haters. Just spew the talking points no matter how dumb they are.

Slow your roll Billy Joel, you’re gonna get ahead of the rhythm. All I have been made aware of this week is a list of the unmasking requests made on the Flynn sanctions call during transition. Can’t you just wait for Durham’s findings - before you brag about the truth n all? If it’s true, there’s no way it can be hidden anymore from an aggressive President, a loyalist AG, and an SC - no? This should be fairly simple. So I don’t get all the little boy “I told you so” poppin all over this week. A request for an unmasking is a routine thing I’d imagine? Leaking to the press is the issue, no?
So we have been told daily for 3 years that Trump conspired with Russia, and now that the unmaskers of Flynn have been unmasked we need to wait for Durhams edict before making comments,,,,,,sounds reasonable if you say please

Trump is leading in the battleground states. More blacks and Hispanics are going to vote Trump than they did in 2016. They can try to use COVID-19, but most people are aware and smart enough to know, Trump didn't cause it and he moved earlier than anyone on the left did or would have. In fact, they ridiculed him for acting so early. Even CNN([laughing]) had to downplay their own poll showing Trump winning big in the battleground states.

Trump will win in a landslide, just as he did in 2016.
