While Joe Biden is in hiding somewhere while hoping he wins this November’s election by doing absolutely nothing, President Donald Trump is taking real action against real threats.
President Trump just unveiled a new plan that will designate the KKK and Antifa as terrorist organizations, and make lynching a national hate crime.
The campaign is calling it the “Platinum Plan,” and it aims to give the Black Community “opportunity,” “security,” “prosperity,” and “fairness.”
The plan also aims to increase capital by $500 billion in the black communities, and create 3 million new jobs.
Fox News has more on this historic plan:
President Trump’s plan for Black America designates the KKK and Antifa as terrorist organizations and calls for making lynching a national hate crime, while pledging to increase access to capital in Black communities by nearly $500 billion, Fox News has learned.
The president on Friday is expected to roll out details of what the campaign is calling the “Platinum Plan,” which details “opportunity,” “security,” “prosperity,” and “fairness” for the Black Community.
“For decades, Democrat politicians like Joe Biden have taken Black voters for granted. They made you big promises before every election—and then the moment they got to Washington, they abandoned you and sold you out,” the president is expected to say Friday, according to remarks exclusively obtained by Fox News. “The Democrats will always take Black voters for granted until large numbers of Black Americans vote Republican.”
The president is expected to tout the plan as “a bold vision that we can and will achieve over the next four years.”
The president’s plan, according to the campaign, will increase access to capital in Black communities by almost $500 billion, help to create 500,000 new Black-owned businesses, and help to create 3 million new jobs for the Black community.
Fox News obtained a copy of the "Platinum Plan." It states that it will “prosecute the KKK and ANTIFA as terrorist organizations and make lynching a national hate crime.”
The president’s plan also vows to make Juneteenth a national holiday.
Meanwhile, the president is also expected to commit to working on a “Second Step Act,” and provide access to better jobs and training opportunities for those in Black communities.
The Platinum Plan also pledges to give Black churches the ability to compete for federal resources for their communities; bring better and tailored healthcare to address what the campaign called “historic disparities,” and advance home ownership opportunities and enhance financial literacy in Black communities.
Trump: "For decades, Democrat politicians like Joe Biden have taken black voters for granted"
CNN has more:
President Donald Trump unveiled a plan aimed at winning over Black Americans on Friday, less than two months before Election Day, largely expanding upon the existing economic-related initiatives the President established in his first term.
The proposals include prosecuting the Ku Klux Klan and Antifa as terrorist organizations, making Juneteenth a federal holiday and efforts to bolster Black economic prosperity.During an Atlanta event announcing what was deemed the Black Economic Empowerment "Platinum Plan," Trump sought to draw contrasts between his plan for the African American community and Joe Biden's proposals, arguing that the former vice president "inflicted" damage on the Black community over the last 47 years he's spent working in Washington.
Trump garnered just 8% of the Black electorate in 2016 -- and an average of recent 2020 polls shows Biden leading Trump with Black voters by an 83% to 8%, or 75-point, margin.
"They only care about power for themselves, whatever that means. My opponent is offering Black Americans nothing but the same old, tired, empty slogans," Trump argued.
The announcement of this plan has left many asking a simple question.
What has Joe Biden done for black voters, and what does he plan to do?
Even the beloved President Obama never came up with a plan such as the one proposed by President Trump.
