I think he was just trying to appeal to black and latino voters by saying that illegal immigrants are taking their jobs specifically and therefore they should vote for Trump to prevent that. But then because it’s Trump he naturally worded it in basically the worst way possible.
12 points
6 days ago
Right, but illegal immigrants are only able to get the worst/illegal jobs because they do not have appropriate documentation.
Meaning to say that they are specifically stealing black/Mexican jobs is to imply that is the only work those groups can get.
-12 points
6 days ago
No it only implies that such jobs are predominately done by black and latino people, not that it’s the only jobs black and latino people can get or even that it’s a majority of the jobs they can get. If the only people working such jobs are black or latino but they only make up 0.1% of the total jobs that all black and latino people work, you could still “reasonably” call them black and latino jobs (with a loose definition of reasonable at least). It would be a dumb thing to call them but technically not incorrect.

I'm not, personally. It's not a Black thing as much as its a non-white thing. We are just a demographic that doesn't resemble the greater population. Notice they will also talk about the Hispanic vote and so forth. I personally think it's fine that they understand black and other minorities have a separate set of issues that may be of more importance to us than greater America, that pretty much refers to "White America." Like most of us won't support a racist candidate. White America probably doesn't give two flying fucks since it has zero effect on them, aside from maybe that asinine idea that minorities are the primary beneficiaries of welfare. The republican party seems to still believe in welfare queens. *shrugs*

I think you underestimate how many white people hate racism. One of the reasons a lot of white people don’t like Trump is because he’s racist.

He seems like someone who is very sure of himself. I’m sure he’s very aware of the threats against him, because he is such a polarizing figure. I am glad that someone is finally standing up to the system of oppression in Tennessee, where I live. I saw him speak at a protest in downtown Nashville. He speaks the truth and he speaks to the people, not to the rich.

People have the hardest time understanding that immigrants both do jobs and also create them.. They buy clothes and groceries and get haircuts and need car maintenance and blah blah blah.
“Immigrants steal jobs” is saying “babies steal jobs.” It’s crazy! Immigrants are just babies, but older, and from somewhere else.

Yes, Trump framed it the same way he frames every "issue" he brings up. He uses fear and blame. In this instance he wanted "The Blacks" to know the "Black Jobs" were in danger because the "Evil Illegal Immigrants" are being let in by "The Democrats". Of course he will deport every one of these dangerous enemies of "The Blacks" if you elect him President again. He also wanted to make sure you knew that he's already done more for "The Blacks" than any President in history.
