Trump's State of union spoke to record low Black unemployment & Dems refused to applaud!

Can you imagine hating our President so much, that when his policies created record numbers of jobs for Black people, Democrats and the Black caucus refused to stand and applaud that great news for Black people.
The truth of Conservative policies and their benefits to all Americans, is making Democrats look like fools when refusing to celebrate good news for our workers.

Democrats have been race bating for decades, telling everyone how much they care for the plight of Black people, etc., and then when Trump actually helped accomplish record low unemployment for Black people along wth Hispanics, women, etc. etc., they sat on their hands and would not even applaud the good news for their main voting block.

THIS IS HOW MUCH THE LEFT HATE'S TRUMP! No matter what he accomplishes, they will hate him!  They hate him for simply being Conservative no matter how much his Conservative politices are working.

This is the dysfunctional intolerance the Left has for Conservatives. They don't care how fast America's economy is growng! They don't care how many families will be helped by this economy! They are Socialists!

They simply do not care about the working man and woman. The Left is not happy when their Government dependent voting base become self sufficient, because Democrats will lose their vote. The working person will no longer want to vote for Democrat's who tax them more.

I listened to the Democrat response to the State of the Union address, and STILL THESE LYING FOOLS ARE SPEWING THE LIE OF HOW THE TAX CUTS ONLY HELP THE RICH! It is truly sick watching these losers continue their lies when the truth is so obvious. They truly look like intolerant hateful obstructionist fools.

From a Left leaning NPR fact checking report....

"The claim

Black and Hispanic unemployment are at or near record lows.

The short answer

Trump's numbers are right, but it's generally a stretch for presidents to take credit for job creation.

The long answer

Trump is right that African-American unemployment hit a record low in December. The unemployment rate for black Americans is currently 6.8 percent, the lowest level recorded since the government started keeping track in January 1972.

And he's also right that the Hispanic unemployment rate is down a point over the last year — it was at 4.9 percent in December, down from 5.9 percent in December 2016. That is close to a record low, though it's also up 0.1 point from November.

But still, fact check: true on Trump's numbers."

What does it tell you when a Party refuses to celebrate good news for the working man? It tells me they only care for one group of Americans..... the ones who vote for them.

FW,

What does it tell you when a Party refuses to celebrate good news for the working man? It tells me they only care for one group of Americans..... the ones who vote for them.

You are SOOO WRONG about this.

They do not even care about the people who vote for them.

The Democrat politicians only care about THEMSELVES.

I agree the Democrat Party cares for no one but themselves, but my point is their policies are geared to pander to only those groups who vote for them.

They constantly pander to their voting blocks whether Blacks, LBGT, Feminists, etc. etc.

These are the same people who say that requiring an ID to vote is racist against black people because black people are too stupid to figure out how to get an ID.

2 points

Exactly, Democrats treat Black people in a condescending way, constanty calling them victims of others. Sending the message they are incapable of getting ID's, getting jobs, supporting themselves without Government.

The Left treats the Black community like chldren who can not fend for themselves.

Failing to 'give credit where credit is due'' is the hallmark of resentful shallow minded losers.

President Trump is like a powerful locomotive ploughing through the mountains of negative shit which is being placed there by the spiteful Democrats.

You are 100% correct. It is a sign of insecurity when one refuses to admit the obvious.

For people on the Left to admit that Trump's Conservative policies are working, would be to admit that their's did not. They are too insecure to be so honest.

If the Democrat Party were willing to come to the middle, they might actually get some respect and possibly win a town councel position once more.

Is that why Trump refuses to give any credit to Obama for the economy he inherited (stock market was already at record highs before the election, high consumer confidence, unemployment under 5%, recovered housing, banking, auto industry, etc.)?

Instead he claims he inherited a mess...

What policy did Trump implement to reduce black unemployment?

I repeat, why did Dems refuse to applaud over the good news of record low Black unemployment?

2 points

And I repeat:

What policy did Trump implement to reduce black unemployment?

P.S. - Under Obama, black unemployment was cut in half, and the previous record low black unemployment was under Clinton.

His policies created job opportunities of which the blacks got their fair share.

Your ridiculous question is suggesting that President Trump and his administration should exercise POSITIVE DISCRIMINATION by generating jobs specifically and exclusively for black people?

1 point

His policies created job opportunities

Which policies?

generating jobs specifically and exclusively for black people?

He was the one that specifically called out black unemployment (and the OP) - not I.

reduction in black unemployment:

2017 -0.950%

2016 -1.117%

2015 -1.783%

2014 -1.733%
