The point is, if you post on a site like Medium, you're supposed to use YOUR OWN WORDS, not just cut and paste a presidential campaign's talking points word-for-word.
And while I'll concede, in response to your hairsplitting objection- instead of the word "flyer", I should have said "stuff from the Trump campaign website"- the point stands.
As for those 'arguments' for Trump's achievements- those "arguments" are largely statistical, and such statistics can be easily manipulated.
For example, and unemployment rate changes could well have simply been manipulation of how the statistics are measured; The government has spent decades intentionally underestimating the overall unemployment rate by excluding those with even part-time work- including those who are only employed for five or ten hours a week- and those who have given up looking for work because they've had no luck getting any, sometimes after looking for years.
There are undoubtely ways of manipulating the poverty rate as well.
As to the "ingratitude" you think black people in cities like Chicago display towars Trump:
Do you not see Trump's absolute refusal to acknowledge the disproportionate use of force by police against people of color and his continued pandering to unjustified white resentment and paranoia about black people could possibly be a significant reason for lack of black gratitude towards Trump?
You live in Chicago. As you will have observed, the cops there have never been stopped from using whatever levels of intimidation and force they've wanted to use towards the black community.
You will also have noticed that relentless, undiluted police brutality has never come close to making a dent in the violent crime rate, and that it isn't actually possible for the Chicago P.D. to be any less "leashed" than they are now. Wouldn't you have to agree that that reality totally discredits Trump's notion of "law and order"?
The fact is the vast majority of the black community believe, with good reason, that Trump has gone out of his way to treat them as though they are lazy, immoral, unworthy and, quite frankly, as though they AREN'T as American as rural and suburban white people.
And it's his own fault that they see him that way, because he never had to pander to white resentment or white paranoia to get elected.
There is also the fact that, with no justification and no evidence, Trump spent years perpetuating the "birther" lie regarding President Obama, in what he knew was a futile and groundless attempt to try and force the country's first black president out of office.
Can you not see how THAT might make the vast majority of black voters somewhat less than grateful to this bitter, spiteful self-pitying bully?
