Speaker 0: You have to realize how bad things got, particularly for blacks under the Obama presidency economically. Unemployment, which never reached double digits for whites under Obama, did not fall below double digits for blacks until the 3rd month of Obama's 7th year in office. Under Trump, black unemployment fell to 50 year lows. Black poverty fell to its lowest level on record. You saw black wages rising at more than 15% among blacks, but only 11% among whites.
It may not seem like a lot, but that's a 36% difference. That is not just a continuation of something that was happening under Obama as some people like to dismiss it. It was an acceleration. For the lowest income earners in this country, their wages under the 1st 3 years of the Trump administration grew at more than double the rate during Obama's 2nd term. This was an acceleration.
