    A lot did vote Trump, it’s just difficult to win against a Party which has the means to dump tens of millions of phoney votes into the election

    rump got very few of them jobs, almost none really. Most of the drop in the unemployment rate happened while Obama was still President; it moved only a little bit more under Trump (before then going back up due to COVID).

    More jobs were created in Obama's last three years than were created in Trump's first three years.  Trump is the ultimate con man.  He has a way of lying that gets a certain kind of person to believe him despite all facts.

    Not one election official, Democrat or Republican, in any state, found any relevant fraud.  And every one of 62 courts found that every state's election procedures were on solid legal ground.

    And yet millions believe Trump's Big Lie that the election was stolen.  Are you one of those millions who are that gullible?  If you believe the election was stolen you have serious mental problems.

    The Recovery Act of 2009 ushered in the longest sustained growth in our nation's history. Trump inherited it and tried to claim it as his own. So black people knew that Obama left them good. Trump's trying to claim it was him was just one of his lies.

    Trump Exaggerations on Blacks' Economic Gains

    Black unemployment reached a record low during the Trump administration, 5.4% in August, as the longest economic expansion in history pressed ahead.

    Most of the progress came when Barack Obama was president: Black unemployment dropped from a recession high of 16.8% in March 2010 to 7.8% in January 2017. Improvement continued under Trump until the pandemic. Black unemployment reached 16.8% in May, compared with 13.3% for the overall population.

    They did, in record numbers. Kept the Dominion algorithms running 99.9% of the CPU cycles, but they did the job and the country was "saved".

    Those stats are distorted because many people had to work two crappy low wage jobs.  The bottom 50% knew that all they were getting were crumbs from the feast Trump was feeding billionaires.
