Most people, it turns out, don't like being referred to as part of an undifferentiated mass of failure and despair, particularly when the assertion is wildly inaccurate (most African-Americans don't live in poverty)  A correct assertion that most African-Americans do not live in poverty.  But the leaders in the Black community sure do present that picture.  I have not once seen any Black leader, including our President, present them as anything else.  I guess Trump has swallowed the information presented by the Black leaders and Democrats as fact.  Maybe all of us should look at this presentation of the "situation of our African American community."
