Black unemployment rate falls to lowest on record

"The unemployment rate for black workers fell to the lowest rate on record in December, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Friday.

".....President Trump's Council of Economic Advisers didn't directly take credit for the milestone in a post on the jobs reports on the White House website. White House spokesman Raj Shah did say, though, on Twitter that the improvement in the black unemployment rate was attributable to Trump's economic policies.
Meanwhile, the gap between black unemployment at white unemployment fell to the lowest level on record in December........"

Employers seem to be a bit more open to hiring entry level blacks over more experienced applicants in the trades, and that is a good thing.

Racism is a good thing? What if you were experienced in a job and you applied for a job. Would you be happy that you were passed over in favor of someone with no experience because they were the right color? That's a good thing? Thats ridiculous.

I am pretty sure that is NOT what this article is about, thank God.

You angry white people still afraid a Black Man is going take your job?
 
Isn't it just like those damn Republicans to give a Negro a job?

Don't lecture others about racism when your own background is full of it.

I suppose Trump should get credit for not ****ing things up, but that is as far as he gets credit.

And still they won't support Trump.

I think it's because Trump publicly supported the KKK and Neo Nazis
Trump Defends White-Nationalist Protesters: 'Some Very Fine People'

and ran a campaign based on energizing his base, who he apparently thinks are largely cowardly racists
Trump’s Midterm Closing Argument: Pure Racial Fear

Do you think Trump's blatantly racist campaign has had an effect on why minorities don't support him, even though the economy is good? Or do you think it's something else?
 
LOL!! Obama could not create a job if his ignorant socialist arse depended on it

My...My....My...How much more strident we have gotten from some quarters since the Mid-term, non-wave vote.

This stuff would be hysterical if it were not so sad.

Excellent figures. So why did so many black Americans NOT vote for the republicans in the mid-terms? Why oh why?
 
Obama hasn't been in office for over 2 years now. He no longer gets the credit.

President Obama gets the credit for reducing unemployment from 10.8% to 4.8%. President Obama gets the credit for creating MILLIONS of jobs for Americans. President Obama gets the credit for handing low unemployment to the orange ***** grabber.

trump gets credit for reducing the unemployment rate from 4.8% to 3.7%. And he gets credit for Sears, Toys R Us and many other businesses going bust.
and he gets credit for Harley Davison, Carrier and other businesses sending jobs offshore.

If I was black and I got a minimum wage job at Walmart thanks to trump - I would happily have voted republican in the mid-terms. But for some reason many blacks DID NOT vote republican. Could it be that the republicans support a man who calls neo-nazis and the KKK ' VERY FINE PEOPLE'?

Obama gets credit, and blame, for anything for up to 1 year of Trumps Presidency. After that, its all Trumps credit and blame. That is the way its been for longer than I can remember. That is what I will stick to.
