COLUMN: Trump’s Debate Remark on ‘Black Jobs’ Exposes His True Nature

In a Presidential debate more cringeworthy than a straight-to-Tubi movie, one of the more uncomfortable moments occurred when the “Black people” portion of the program commenced.President Biden and Donald Trump were asked how they would address the needs of Black voters.That’s when Trump remarked that he would stop immigrants from taking “Black jobs.” We have a question for former President Trump: What is a “Black job?” #CNNDebate pic.twitter.com/uYrTYxFaYV — The Atlanta Voice (@theatlantavoice) June 28, 2024It was a dangerous response from the former President, who again reminded us of his divisive, scarcity-minded, zero-sum view of governance.The comment was shocking and straight up confusing, leaving many to wonder, ‘What does he mean by ‘Black jobs?’ What exactly are Black and Hispanic Jobs!?! #CNNDebate — NAACP (@NAACP) June 28, 2024 WTF is “Black Jobs”? Huh Donald? #Debates2024 pic.twitter.com/ze7TNI5Otn — Brolivia Pope
