James Prince, the most respected man in hip-hop, is among the growing number of black Americans – including me – who are recognizing that President Trump has accomplished some very good things for the African-American community.
We also recognized that while Democrats make big promises to black voters in the run-up to every election, too often those promises are forgotten once the polls close. In part that’s because Democrats take our votes for granted – they just assume the vast majority of black people will vote Democratic. If more of us voted for Republicans, candidates in both parties would do more to compete for our votes
President Trump can take credit for many achievements that have benefitted the black community.
The president’s tax cuts, elimination of unnecessary government regulations, and other policies have driven black unemployment and the black poverty rate to record lows. These policies have sparked a renaissance in manufacturing and other jobs that has benefitted not just black Americans, but all Americans.
And the many Opportunity Zones the president has created in low-income and predominantly black areas have revitalized areas neglected under Democratic administrations.
The president has also advocated for school choice that has given students in underperforming public schools the option of attending schools where they can get a better education. Many of the students benefitting from school choice are black.
In addition, President Trump has increased support for the nation’s historically black colleges and universities, which continue to play an important role in the education of young black men and women.
Prince focused on the First Step Act in commenting favorably about President Trump on social media.

But he’s a racist. Just ask any race baiter.
True... BUT equally important President Trump is attempting to stop the CHEAP LABOR EXPRESS that brings illegals into the country to work under the table ...stealing jobs from Americans of all colors.
He says that because he and TRUMP wants to SEE AN END TO: underprivileged neighborhoods and communities!
When you are in the work force (academia excluded)you go skin in the game. You take note of WHO wants to take what you earn away from you.
From their point of view he is being harassed just for getting a job that someone else felt was "owed" to them.
Which even has the virtue of being true.
Another feel-good story!
