Trump's Agenda for the Cities

Some might call this Trump's "black voter agenda."  That works, too.

...Trump affirmed that his administration would support the growth of businesses in black communities. “At the heart of this effort is increasing access to capital for small businesses, and that’s with minority owners in black communities.  And we’re going to get it done, and it should have been done a long time ago.  It’s been very difficult — very, very difficult for some people.  It’s been unfairly difficult,” he insisted. ...

...“Second, we are confronting the healthcare disparities, including addressing chronic conditions and investing substantial sums in minority-serving medical institutions.  We have medical institutions in some areas of our country that are a disgrace.  I was going to say ‘not up to standard.’  They’re much worse than ‘not up to standard.’  They’re a disgrace.  We’ll take care of it.”...

...“Third, we’re working to finalize an executive order that will encourage police departments nationwide to meet the most current professional standards for the use of force, including tactics for de-escalation.”...

And then he drops the Big One.

...“And, fourth, we’re renewing our call on Congress to finally enact school choice now.  School choice is a big deal because access to education is the civil rights issue of our time.  And I’ve heard that for the last, I would say, year.  But it really is; it’s the civil rights issue of our time.  When you can have children go to a school where their parents want them to go.”...

There is not a chance in Hell that school choice will get through the House unless Republicans take control--and even then, the RINO contingent will make it near-impossible in both Houses of Congress.

And of course, smarmy twits such as Tricky Tony (and the Governor, Maggie Gau) will do all they can to derail the other elements of the plan, and probably be joined by RINOs in the Legislature.

But this is a big, broad, populist program.  You'll hear a lot more about it.
