Trump Announces Comprehensive 'Platinum Plan' for Black Americans

“Over the last 50 years black Americans have mostly voted democrat, but every day more black Americans are deciding that the old way is not working,” Trump said, noting that his opponent, former Vice President Joe Biden, was deploying the “same old tired empty slogans.”.

The plan announces a goal of creating 500,000 black-owned businesses, increase access to capital investments, and add three million jobs for the black community.

The president’s plan for black Americans includes proposals he has already voiced support for, such as an annual $500 billion of infrastructure spending.

The president also pointed to Biden’s 1994 crime bill, which instituted stiff drug penalties that affected the black community.

“Biden believes that all black Americans have to think the same way,” Trump said, noting that “He doesn’t know black Americans like I do.”
