    Trump has made the claim several times over and over, that illegals are coming to America and taking "black jobs"

    What constitutes a "black job"

    Burger flipper?
    Door man?
    uber / cab driver?
    President? :)


    Im just curious what people think when Trump says "Black Jobs"

    I know what I think he means. Poor jobs. He hires blacks to clean his toilet, and thats what he thinks about black America. IMO.

    I have no earthly idea and probably neither does trump other than is grotesque stereotyping that he constantly uses.

    That is not what Trump was saying. Way to nitpick and twist words.

    Trump was saying black Americans are losing their hard earned jobs to illegal criminals.

    To suggest Trump was being elitist is absurd when we had a black President, black ceos, etc

    Clearly Trump thinks black people can only get the jobs that illegals mostly get. You know…lower level manual labor jobs that pays very little. Funny how he only singled out blacks. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Trump was a guest at a conference of the 'National Association of Black Journalists'. Now think about that name. When Trump was asked what a Black job was he should have said, "A Black journalist".

    You mean like all those Democrat board of education members who think blacks can't learn standard English or basic Math?

    Dude the fact that you've been here as long as you have and are still asking that question says you really haven't been paying any attention. This fact has come up multiple times on this board. Look up Ebonic or 2+2 = 3 or 5 is close enough.

    Stats show that blacks have disportionately larger representation in less skilled work such as the service industries and that black unemployment is double whites.

    Black unemployment is a problem that is not helped by unskilled noncitizens coming into the country illegally.

    It's a simple truth.

    US black people have lower scholastic achievements than just about any other demographic group in the US. We can argue about why that is, but it is. Even with DEI/Affirmative Action, today, black people are more likely to have low to no skill-low education requirement jobs per capita. It is those jobs the pay for which is depressed by an invasion of unskilled, uneducated illegal aliens. And black people should, and are, realizing they're being replaced while their economic well being is under attack.

    I think that is all Trump meant when he said the open border is hurting black people (jobs).

    It isn’t a trait of the job, it’s a trait of the location.

    Blacks are doing a good job self segregating themselves since it’s illegal for their former white Democrat slave masters to make them do it.

    So I would think jobs in black communities can be called black jobs without too much confusion since Democrats and Black people say Black jobs all the time and nobody has a problem with it.

    The fact that you need back up for something that has appeared here of and on for a decade of more is just silly Sorry but if your memory is that awful I'm not doing research for you.

    When asked what a Black job is he should have said -- "president of the United States and vice president of the United States. Two of the people who have held those jobs made it known to all that they belonged to the Black race. So I guess they were calling them Black jobs."

    Except that illegals aren’t taking the job of president and vice president. So he would have looked even more idiotic had he said that. Seems you didn’t actually think this through.

    Not a memory issue. Unable to remember something that didn’t happen. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
    Let’s be honest shall we? If you could prove it you would if for no reason than to shove it up my backside.
    When are you going to learn not to run your mouth on things you can’t back up? Hahahaha

    No, the point is, Blacks can define Black jobs, but Whitey can't. The other point is the Black journalist had one goal -- "Gottcha Trump". Most folks understood what Trump was trying to convey to the 'Black group convention'.
