Senate Democrats (click here) say they want $350 billion for minority communities in the next stimulus bill to address needs ranging from child care to infrastructure, adding a new demand as lawmakers prepare to start crafting another massive virus relief package.
That would add to the $3.5 trillion plan recently passed by the Democrat-led House and endorsed by party lawmakers in both chambers. The Senate Democrats’ propose getting $200 billion of the amount by tapping unspent money from a fund set up in the massive stimulus measure approved in March that facilitates corporate lending by the Treasury Department....
The African American community will never see a dime of the Trump "Platinum Plan." Why? Because he could have already issued at least $350 billion in aid to these communities that the Democrats proposed months ago. Trump never saw the importance of the second relief bill. The US Senate is now out on vacation without plans to return before the election.
So, if Trump was actually going to spend $500 billion to the minority communities it could have already begun and the Democrats would be delighted to increase the investment monies. If Trump wanted to spend $500 billion rather than $350 billion it would be done. Trump is never going to provide such a package to the minority communities. He lies and lying about promises of money is among his favorite lies.

President Donald Trump (click here) on Friday announced a new $500 billion plan promising "opportunity," "security," "prosperity," and "fairness" for black Americans if he is reelected in November.
The president's campaign is calling this the "Platinum Plan," Fox News reported. Trump's plan calls for $500 billion of capital investment into black communities, tax cuts and opportunity zones to support black-owned businesses, continued criminal justice reform, increased support for police, making lynching a federal hate crime, and the prosecution of the Ku Klux Klan and Antifa as terrorist organizations.
"For decades, Democrat politicians like Joe Biden have taken Black voters for granted. They made you big promises before every election — and then the moment they got to Washington, they abandoned you and sold you out," the president said in remarks obtained by Fox News. "The Democrats will always take Black voters for granted until large numbers of Black Americans vote Republican."...
No one can trust him. Look, he tried to stop USA funding to another country to protect their sovereignty. He doesn't care about people. He only cares about his own interests. People have to ask what danger now exists in their lives that should have been averted by sincere leadership with the country at heart.
The spread of SARS-CoV-2 could have absolutely been stopped and Trump's inability to protect the people is exposed by this virus. Why would anyone consider statements by Trump as true when all he has done is lie to the American people? Stop being the foolish people he is hoping for to stay in the White House. With Trump it won't get better from here, it will get worse. The peril of the country has increased year after year with him in the White House. Stop playing the fool.
