Trump: ‘African-American Youth Is Doing Worse than Virtually It’s Ever Done’

‘You would think that couldn’t have happened with Obama as President’

HEWITT: “But are race relations cratering, that is true. That is very inspiring, and a lot of pulpits heard a lot of sermons yesterday about forgiveness such as the families practiced. But are race relations generally in America cratering right now?”

TRUMP: “Well, we have an African-American president, and you know, the biggest thing that I thought, I was never a fan, but I always thought that when he got elected, when Obama got elected, he’d be a cheerleader for the country. And certainly, you would have thought he would have been much better for African-Americans who are really suffering, more than anybody else right now in terms of jobs and everything else. So you have an African-American president, and African-American youth is doing worse than virtually it’s ever done. I mean, we’ve had some pretty bad times in this country, but virtually, it’s ever done, and you would think that that couldn’t have happened with Obama as president.”
