The 40-million strong African American community deserved "new deal" to transform their communities, safety and economic prospects as well as the future of their children, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump told a campaign rally in Charlotte, North Carolina.
The city of Charlotte was the site of a mass-murder that shocked the United States last year when nine African Americans holding a Bible study in their church were shot dead. A young white racist Dylann Storm Roof is facing trial charged with the crime.
"[It is time for] a new deal for black America," Trump said in on Wednesday. "I am asking for the honor of your vote and the privilege of serving as your president and I will not let you down… Whether you vote for me or not, I will be your greatest champion."
Trump said he proposed a three-point plan for the African American community that focused on creating safe communities, great education and high paying jobs.
"My vision rests on a principle that has defined this campaign right from the beginning: It is called America First… Every African American citizen in this country is entitled to a job that puts them first… I work for you and I work only for you," Trump noted. US Needs to Break ‘School-to-Prison Pipeline’ Blighting African American Lives
The United States must set up a new commission involving the African American community to end the pattern of young people going from failed schools into lives of crime and imprisonment, Donald Trump told a campaign rally.
"I will… establish a new commission to tackle the school to prison pipeline and to shut that pathway down and to create instead a new pathway that leads from great education to a great job." Trump described school choice as the great civil rights issue of current times and promised to champion it in all 50 US states if he is elected president on November 8. "My plan will also ensure funding for Historical Black Colleges and Universities, more affordable two- and four-year college and support for trade and vocational education… We used to have this great vocational education and they were great and we have to bring that back." Trump also reiterated his proposal to redirect education spending to allow every disadvantaged child in America to attend the public, private, charter, magnet, religious or home school of their choice. The Republican nominee announced in the speech that overall African Americans deserve a "New Deal" in the United States to improve their lives. Restore Glass-Steagal Act to Boost Credit for African-American Community The Dodd-Frank Democratic financial reform of 2009 has had disastrous effects and the 1933 Glass-Steagall Act must be revived to separate regular banking form investment banking to boost African American job growth, Republican presidenital nominee Donald Trump said.
"Dodd-Frank has been a disaster, making it harder for small businesses to get the credit they need," Trump stated. "It’s time for a 21st century Glass Steagall and… a priority on helping African-American businesses get the credit they need."
Trump criticized the policies of two-term President Bill Clinton and his wife Hillary, the current Democratic nominee for president, as playing a major role in impoverishing the African American community. "The policies of the Clintons brought us the financial recession — through lifting Glass-Steagall, pushing subprime lending, and blocking reforms to Fannie [Mae] and Freddie [Mac]" – the two giant federally supported mortgage-supporting corporations, he stated. Trump also said he would encourage small-business creation by allowing social welfare workers to convert poverty assistance into repayable but forgive-able micro-loans. "I will also propose tax holidays for inner city neighborhoods… [and] financial reforms to help young African Americans to get tax credits to pursue their dreams in their communities." Trump added he would boost small-business creation by allowing social welfare workers to convert poverty assistance into repayable but forgive-able micro-loans.
In a deal, both sides give something and both sides get something.
Major error in first paragraph, Dylan Roof shooting was in Charleston South Carolina, not Charlotte North Carolina.
Americans of African Descent
Anyone prefixing their citizenship with non-American names needs to STFU and get with the American program.
It’s simple, read our USC...

So they want whites to fix their dysfunctional culture.
I’ll take a victory anyway we can get it
School choice and Board of education “reorganization” would reward all Americans regardless of race or color. Imagine if black schools could expect their local board to hire only the very best teachers and not some slacking idiot who can’t to the assignments they give the students? Imagine all children getting a quality education from the best talent in the area, who keeps their job through being the best, not because they have a union card and can go on strike.

correct. but i doubt they would appreciate the word “descent” to explain their African lineage since many are so easily offended by anything sounding like it lessens them when really it does not.
I know plenty of blacks who are very vocal about their dysfunctional inner-city culture. They hate it too.
What a load of crap that was ... Ha!
Americans of African Ancestry
Americans of African Lineage
Being American is the most important thing, so American should come first.
This should be trumps big push for the next week or so. He doesn’t need the blacks to vote for him so much as he needs the blacks to NOT vote for cankles. Without a strong showing from the black community she cannot win. If they vote for him so much the better, but they are not enthused by her like they were for Bambi so staying home is a very easy alternative.
You work, you eat. You help, you reap the rewards. That’s fair enough....
“The city of Charlotte was the site of a mass-murder that shocked the United States last year when nine African Americans holding a Bible study in their church were shot dead.”
Russian propaganda is pretty shaky on things like states and cities: that shooting was in a different city in one of the other 57 states.
I guess I’m a Wyoming-American. No, wait, I’m a Colorado-American. Wait, I’ve lived in Kentucky, Alabama, and Georgia as well. Do I use slashes or dashed between them?
I loved that album back in the day.
Blacks will enjoy a Trump presidency, like ALL of us. Blacks will see that after 50 years of the Dem slavery, they’ll enjoy the freedom..
