Response to Trump Ohio rally speech

      In his Youngstown, Ohio Rally Speech, President Donald Trump said, “I talked to my African American friends and I said, vote for me, what the hell you have to lose?  African Americans and teenagers are enjoying their lowest unemployment.”

African Americans do not enjoy unemployment. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics data, Blacks had the highest unemployment rate at 6 percent.

Boastfully, President Trump continued, “Now it is up to us to preserve the birth right of freedom and justice, the birth right of prosperity that our ancestors won for us with their sweat, with their blood, with their work, with their muscle, with their brain. They won it for us and we’re gonna make it bigger and better and stronger than it ever was before.”

If Trump were honest, he would have said, “Now it is up to whites to preserve the birth right of freedom and justice, the birth right of prosperity, that our slave-holding ancestors won for us with African slave sweat, with African slave blood, with African slave work, with African slave muscle, with the African slave brain. African slaves won it for us whites and we’re gonna make it bigger and better and stronger than it ever was before.
