A large segment of America should be thankful for tRUMP, and his base they exposed the racism that Black folks have been fighting since they were brought to the Americas
But he’s oppressed!! He can’t be a congressman! 😂
What did he do for African Americans?
This man is an idiot … repeats talking points over and over again and refuses to answer questions…. More progress than any time in his lifetime ???? he's older than me an I remember when schools were integrated. I remember when blacks were lynched. I remember when blacks were intimidated against going to the polls.
As an example of the foolishness of Trump supporters, journalists hit the streets after the tax cut was passed and interviewed people. Many republicans claimed "$1400 a year: … 12% less taxes …. on and on. It would still be months before the tax cuts went into effect, but supporters claimed their pay checks they had received were bigger.
The poor and middle class tax cuts were an illusion … when pay stubs wee produced (before and after), it was shown that many were seeing a reduction that netted them 1 coffee from Starbucks each week. But at the end of the year, the reduction in the refund was more than the extra money in the paycheck. It wasn't a cut, it was a deferment … and that deferment cost you money. The poor / middle class tax cuts lasted 3 years, they are now gone and yet the tax cuts for the rich are permanent. The poor / middle class tax cuts were temporary, paid for with borrowed funds and now have to be paid back with interest.
Like Trump, everything this man said is a fabrication, spitting out number as if they were real …. they aren't. Scott has introduced election integrity legislation to prevent fraud while every election fraud investigation team created by Trump has found no evidence of such … they claimed dead people voted … and it turned out that it was actually thier children with the same name. In each and every case, the allegation was dismissed with notable exceptions… Jared Kushner voted in a state in which he was not a resident and his records indicated he was a woman . A Republican elections official claimed certain mail in votes were illegal, one of which was his own.
It should be required that any elected official interviewed on news media be required to submit a notarized affidavit attesting to the validity of the information provided proving his statements and if later found to be fraadulent, they be prosecuted to the full extent of the law,

I’d disown that clown as my son!!!
The questions she is asking, so biased but om not surprised
Wait, I just finished listening to the whole conversation,he is wrong and lying again. I'm writing this in January 2021
This man is a shrill and a half truth teller. Apologist.You can see the shame in his face.
The citizens should give chance to vote for people without long political background (especially decades in the field). Give chance to other yonger ones too.
What do ya want. There is improvement under trump in four years. Check the facts. If covid didn't hit he would had done much more
Hey senator Scott I appreciate your speech and although I'm pissed off at Trump right now with all the riots he could have had the world in his hand he blew it all because of his stupid personality
I think that you had a lot of good things to say!!!
and I wish you the best
I think that people need to look at the history of what really happened back in the 1800s with slavery and all that chain gang stuff that's where the blues music came from but not enough people look at history, 2020 might be the first year I've seen a better thing going on
💞❤❤💞🙏“Dear Heavenly Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from you. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward you. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your will for the rest of my life. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen
❤💞💞❤The Gospel of salvation of our souls:💜💕💜💖💞💜💕For what I received I passed on to you as of [first importance]: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers and sisters at the same time,
The opening of his speech was 👍 good
Nice start
This video is basically proof of YouTube throttling and shadow banning. Millions of subscribers and barely 30k views. C'mon man.
Harris and Boker were the ones that introduced the bill for the HBCUs and Trump has taken credit for this. It’s good.
Hasn’t said 1 thing worth note, lol
love how this only has 33k views
He didn't address that developers are benefiting in the opportunity zone more than the residents in the communities. Instead, he mentions low gentrification and 10% increase in minority ownership, which is good. However, why are developers benefiting more than the residents? Does it have anything to do with the background of the president? Hopefully not, but its interesting who benefits from some of the actions that are publicly aimed at one group, but privately benefits another. "The American Way."
The accomplishments that Sen. Scott mentioned affects less than one percent of the minority/black population. This means that he's talking about the matters that certain interest groups lobby for. Affecting small groups is good, but will not have major impacts for the masses. I think such actions can be considered empty calories. Not impressed or moved by what he's saying. I will comment later about the employment improvements. What bills did Trump pass versus carryover from the previous administration. Stay tuned.
Just watched the movie AMISTAD on hbo….President Van Buren….the creator of the Democrat Party….and Promoter of Slavery…..after the death of President Kennedy, Johnson pretended to care about black people…just for the vote.
Falseness, what is his accomplishment?
Well I declare…Uncle Thomas, the long lost brother of Stepin Fetchit, and BFF to the GOOD OLE BOYS!!!
Trump = corrupted and most crooked president in this country history.
He was ready with undeniable facts against unreliable "reports" & that's why she just kept asking more questions to see if there was any chance to get him to deny the truth of Trump's accomplishments.
