But we didn\u2019t really give it. It was stolen. And those people should go to jail.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Trump and the White House have escalated their anti-immigration rhetoric in recent weeks following the shooting of National Guardsmen in Washington, D.C., committed by an Afghan national, as well as a recent report about a few dozen Somalis in Minnesota committing fraud with COVID-19 funds. The Trump administration has used these headline-grabbing moments to suggest that its strict immigration enforcement should be scaled up.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a scam. And it\u2019s headed up by the crooked congresswoman,\u201d the president said of Omar, also seemingly referring to Minnesota. He continued, \u201cShe said, \u2018How dare you say that about me? It\u2019s discrimination.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Trump then switched gears to talking about Black Americans more broadly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet me tell you, Black people love Trump. I got the biggest vote,\u201d said the president, seemingly referring to his increased share of support from Black voters in the 2024 presidential election.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI got the biggest vote with Black people. They know a scam better than anybody. They know\u2026what it is to be scammed,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Trump Goes Viral After He Says Black People Love Him Because &#8216;They Know A Scam Better Than Anybody!&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>While Trump notably increased his support among Black voters in the 2024 election, from 8% to 15%, according to Pew Research, an overwhelming majority of Black Americans supported Kamala Harris over Trump. What\u2019s more, Trump\u2019s share of the Black vote, while the most in half a century for a Republican, is hardly as large as that of previous Republican presidents in the pre-New Deal era, when the Republican Party garnered 30-70% of Black voters.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13710\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13710\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-13710\" src=\"https:\/\/inhealthyzone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/3bb76d361c9d5f363a8c17befcdcc4f5-1024x576.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/inhealthyzone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/3bb76d361c9d5f363a8c17befcdcc4f5-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/inhealthyzone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/3bb76d361c9d5f363a8c17befcdcc4f5-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/inhealthyzone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/3bb76d361c9d5f363a8c17befcdcc4f5-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/inhealthyzone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/3bb76d361c9d5f363a8c17befcdcc4f5.webp 1048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13710\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(Photo: Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>President Trump went on to claim the country has had \u201cthe best 10 months ever in the history of the presidency.\u201d He argued, \u201cFor the first time in 50 years, we now have reverse migration, which means more jobs, better wages, and higher income for American citizens, not for illegal aliens.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>U.S. Rep.

He needs serious help. Since he has no economic policies to tout, he\u2019s resorting to regurgitating bigoted lies instead.

Since Trump took office for his second term, the Black unemployment rate has steadily increased to 7.5%, which is nearly double the national rate and the highest since the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021.<\/p>\n<p>According to a report from the Center on American Progress, Trump\u2019s economic policies, including his global tariffs, are disproportionately harming Black Americans and Black businesses.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s more, Trump\u2019s crusade against diversity, equity, and inclusion, or DEI, and cuts to the federal workforce and public education have resulted in job losses and threaten to narrow pathways to economic and social mobility for Black Americans.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMAGAnomics continue to be a failure, and Trump\u2019s economy, by every measure, continues to be inferior.
