The Trump campaign had been ramping up efforts to try to woo black voters, touting low unemployment rates for African Americans. It was always a tough sell—and then coronavirus hit, disproportionately affecting black Americans and decimating the economy.

But the coronavirus pandemic has pushed the campaign online to a video chat series called. The main focus is praising Trump for his response to the virus and bashing Democrats and the media.

Trump's coronavirus task force has recommended that people with conditions like diabetes and hypertension stay at home and be vigilant about social distancing. These health issues are more prevalent among African Americans in part because of longtime disparities in the health care system."This is socialism, phase one. If we're not careful, this is what we're going to see. We're going to be slaves up and through here if we're not careful," Hardaway said.

Supporters cheer as the president arrives to speak during the launch of Black Voices for Trump in November in Atlanta.Supporters cheer as the president arrives to speak during the launch of Black Voices for Trump in November in Atlanta.Farnaso said Trump is still working to try to improve conditions for African Americans.

Which would be all Administrations. Dem or republican. Don’t blame Trump for everything. Hold everyone accountable.

Futility. Must have a surplus in campaign funds to run through.

The selling point of Black Unemployment is a perfect analogy for what a House of Cards is. Very impressive to glance at, however the tiniest adjustment whether with good, bad, or even neutral intent, and the possibility of it all crumbling down is virtually guaranteed.

'This is socialism, phase one. If we're not careful, this is what we're going to see. We're going to be slaves up and through here if we're not careful,' Hardaway said. Somehow I'm not convinced, since DiamondandSilk are like slaves 'up and through here' under Trump.

God, the trump campaign is racist.

Unfollow

Not to mention the overt racism.

Trump’s a joke

TrumpAmerica 'Death' Donald Trump Author of Fake News is also the executioner of countless Americans for failing to realize threat of pandemic, supported by team of ignorant Republicans like himself to make America mass graveyard in literal sense of word

Come down to Marietta and find out how much African Americans “love” Donald Trump.

NPR. You need to stop lying. My check came in from the IRS. 1 It is not signed by President Trump. 2 there is no letter from President Trump. What is your point even if he did sign it. Congress is laying on there ass because of that Pelosi snot face.

He’s happy black people are dying and the rest of y’all that ain’t dead better get back to work.

I think the bigger issue with black voters is he had those two idiots, Cubic Zirconia and Burlap as his advocates.

davbruce89 Yeah, I'm thinking that rhetorical question what have you got to lose? Kind of insights the wrong answer these days...

Can’t speak to national level but soul folk in chicago have been under dnc leadership for 80 years!! Reckon that

Thank you and keep up the fine work, President Trump. All the best to black Americans in escaping the Democrat Party Plantation.

Don’t get fooled by Trumps bull. All he cares about isre-election Lie to black people,stab them in the back Give tax breaks to the rich,phony promises to desperate blacks If he cared he would have helped the poor first He is a con master and hopes by repeating lies u will forget

What is it, “Trump 2020, we have the best coffins and body bags”?!

Let’s be objective, what policies have the Democrats introduced in the last 40 yrs that actually helped lower the unemployment of black people? Convince me that they have a better plan than Trump.

Diamond and Silk. Every time.

This picture is just nasty as hell. All gutter and garbage.

AfricanAmerican should be avoiding the GOP DonaldJTrump like the bubonic plague. VoteThemAllOut2020!! treat DiamondandSilk as the DotardDrumpf that they are.

Yeah I'm sure Trump taking credit for President Obama's economic recovery is a real hit with black voters

Remember this: whatever Trump says is a lie. Period.

Is NPR racist against black people?

LOL. There is no road back.

Trump said that Black people wouldn't vote 4 him because we were stupid. Who's stupid now? Our opinions, needs, ambitions & quality of life have always been treated dismissively by people like him. Much prosperity was forged on the backs of our people that will be lost forever.

There is no reworking this, it was never there to begin with. And there is no amount of Diamond or Silk in the world that could change that. But if you want to credit someone, it should be former President Obama when the s began to fall for Unemployment for African-Americans.

The 1950s called. They want their zeitgeist back.

Hey will NEVER get the Black vote. Those .0000001% who vote for him....intervention and detoxification is needed. Are they being paid? IJS

That ghost ship has sailed. Any Black person who votes for Trump needs to be examined. You are voting against your own interests.

I blame George w Bush

he is such a hypocrite! Don't believe a word he tells you because it will change the next day or maybe even the same day.

DiamondandSilk Does anyone miss those ignorant and screechy black fluffers of Komrad Donnie?

Diamond & Silk ain’t gonna get the job done. But... for the right price, they’ll give it a shot.

Does anyone miss those screechy black fluffers?

All you need to do is Look at Bidens Actions. So not really a tough sell. In today's society citizens now have the Ability to get both sides of the story with a few mouse clicks! and the Dem side of the story is showing 90% BS And FAKE ASF!

This doesn’t help does it?

Political ad surfaced here in DFW today NYGovCuomo GavinNewsom quoted in their support of realDonaldTrump 'great job' 'real success story' .. Blue Angels a nice touch .. there's a new ad as I type

Zirconia and ilk are being paid just as anyone else in Barnum’s circus was.

Let me sum up the article for you to save some time, 'Orange Man Bad'.

So Trump is adapting his pitch in light of a reality that this situation is making things disproportionately worse for a struggling community What a monster Couldn’t he just ask them to tough it out like past presidents

You do know that you don’t have to act like a wing of the trump campaign right?

He’ll never get our support. Not in this lifetime or the next. Tuh.

Trump will use bribery if he has to.

So what your saying is that trump tinkered with the virus to selectively target black people?

NPR shading the news once again.

Low unemployment rates! LOL!

B/c the types of jobs obtained by black Americans (and many others) that have helped 'reduce' unemployment rates are low paying/low value; they've artificially reduced our unemployment figures. One needs 2 only look the state of the 'best economy' after just 7 weeks of this.

Bring back zirconia and polyester 😂

Trump dont care about African Americans never has just remember birtherism

And now you are selling Biden to them again. Joe isn’t selling himself, because he no longer can.

Because paid actors are always a good idea...💡

And he had the dumbest motherfuckers in their community supporting him. Ben Carson, Diamond and Silk, and Kanye. All of them in it for their own media exposure

Great news and another victory for the Biden campaign!!!

Trump doesn’t even employ blacks in his administration. He’s got his token Ben Carson & that’s it. Same w GOP Congress. No blacks. I guess their racism gets in the way.

But Democrats never even try to appeal to blacks!! Never ever

And once Trump heard COVID19 was killing more blacks he said 're-open the economy!!' Trump doesn't care.
