factcheck trump lies on African-American youth
Trump on African-American youth unemployment, Aug. 25 interview on CNN: “You have black youth that can’t get jobs, 58 percent can’t get jobs.”
(This claim was repeated this week on multiple occasions: Aug. 23 campaign rally in Austin, Texas: “58 percent of young African Americans are not employed”; Aug. 24 rally in Tampa, Florida: “58 percent of African-American youth are not employed, 58 percent”; Aug. 24 rally in Jackson, Mississippi: “58 percent of African-American youth are not working”; and Aug. 25 rally in Manchester, New Hampshire: “58 percent of African-American youth are not working.”) Groundhog Friday |

IN March 2015, the percentage of blacks not in the labor force was 61%, over 12 million according to BLS. As of Aug 2016 the number is 61.9% not in the labor force. I guess the factcheck needs a bit of tweaking. Trump was wrong by making his number about 4% low. Oh well, I'll remind him next time I see him.

Guess we'll need more quotas to get them jobs. They can't even compete with Mexicans. |
