NBC News ^ | September 25, 2020 | Dartunorro Clark

President Trump on Friday unveiled his "Platinum Plan" at an event in Atlanta, which is aimed at investing $500 billion in Black communities.

Trump did not disclose how the plan would be funded but that it would boost lending to Black-owned businesses, reduce taxes, and also include education, healthcare, and criminal justice reforms. He also said the plan would make Juneteenth, a holiday celebrated by Black Americans that marks the end of slavery in the U.S., a national holiday.

He said that the plan would focus on the prosecution of the Ku Klux Klan and antifa as well as designating the groups as terrorist organizations, and make lynching a national hate crime.

He might as well give BLM money too, since he likes black criminals so much.

So we can assume that our PPP and SBA business loans during the pandemic will all be forgiven? or are we still on the hook for it and they get free money

So do whites get the Silver plan?

How about we help people because they are American and not just because they are black? Make these opportunities available to all Americans. We are ‘colorblind, right?

Blacks get the platinum plan. Whites get the payment plan.

Minor correction to title: “. . . black voter support”. Not “Black” voter support.

White males, take notice. I am sure your cash for support is on the way too.

Just how much damage to his conservative base is Trump comfortable with doing? Maybe he should switch parties if he really wants that third term so badly he’s prepared to be Lyndon B Johnson the 2d in order to get it.

I just can’t believe FReepers are studiously avoiding commenting on this horrific betrayal of all principles by POTUS, not to mention the outlandish price to be paid for adding this plan to the deficit, yet again by tax and spend REPUBLICANS! Do you all really believe this kind of insanity and pandering to rioters is a continuation of 4th dimensional chess?

Until the nuclear black family is restored, $$$ is not going to solve their problems.

I agree. This is fighting imaginary systemic racism by implementing actual systems that treat people differently according to their skin color.

Black conservatives should be insulted by the obvious pandering.

btw, I am a vocal supporter of our President. In fact, I may have tossed a turd in the punch bowl at our monthly euchre party last night, just by answering a question about my support for the electoral college. Met by dead silence.

I'm going to be honest. This sh*t really bothers me and the more I think about it, the more pissed off I'm getting.

If Trump loses, it'll be because white voters without college degrees, his base, stayed home. And this is why they will stay home.
