Hard to imagine anything much weirder than wanting to present oneself as racist in front of an African-American journalists association. Pretty much guaranteed to get a hostile reception when you do that.

    Trump: “A Black job is anybody that has a job,” Trump said. “That’s what it is. Anybody that has a job.”

    And Biden didn’t make sense?

        I’m familiar with him saying that before. I was surprised he hadn’t come up with an answer to the “what are black jobs” question since it has been all over the media in response to his prior claim. But I guess he’s too lazy or stupid to think ahead like that.

        My comment was more directed at his nonsensical answer. First, if a black job is any job, then why specify it? Second, how can the answer to “what is a black job” be that it is a person?

          Trump isn’t used to fact checking, or people having valid clarification questions. His whole thing is being loud and repeating talking points so people agree with him.

      Such an obvious question he was going to get, and he has a slam dunk answer he could give. “Black people are historically oppressed, they are disproportionately in lower-education fields and thus disproportionately at risk of losing their job when there is an influx of lower-education workers.” It’s actually a fine pitch, but you can’t actually make it while also appealing to White Nationalists.
