Seven months before the presidential election, Republican candidate Donald Trump is striving to improve his image among Black Americans. The billionaire has continued to praise the situation of African-Americans during his mandate, systematically attributing the blame to himself.
The unemployment rate for Black Americans was low during Donald Trump's term before Covid. On the other hand, this downward trajectory was already present during the presidency of Barack Obama and the historic minimum was observed in April 2023, under Joe Biden. “It’s a disinformation strategy to try to convince black voters that he is like our best friend,” said Cliff Albright, co-founder of the Black Votes Matter collective.
