    During the campaign, Trump said he hired "top, top people" and would fill his administration "with only the best and most serious people."

    I would argue that two factors hold back economic progress for blacks: a lack of jobs in inner cities and poor educational opportunities. On both of these, Trump is delivering positive results. The black unemployment rate has fallen by a full percentage point in the last year, black labor force participation is up, and the number of black Americans with a job has risen by 600,000 from last year. Preliminary data show black wages and incomes up since the election. 

    It’s early for sure, but so far Trump has done more for black economic progress in six months than Obama did in eight years. 

    Trump wants to increase these vouchers and scholarships more black children. The idea is that good schools should be available to all children regardless of race or income. As the black parents I spoke to who participate in these scholarship programs have told me, “Why does Barack Obama get to send his kids to private schools, but not us?” Good question and one that no liberal has ever been able to answer.
    What, exactly, has trump done to accomplish those results? What executive order did he sign or legislation passed under his guidance or support? So, umm, sure.

    They are the worst possible people you could imagine.  Everything you think is wrong about Trump, they LOVE, with side orders of unabashed racism, xenophobia, and conspiracy theory.

    THIS IS A PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT 

    President Donald J Trump will be impeached. The Mueller investigation is quietly progressing without leaks. Stay tuned for further updates and indictments. Now back to Lance with the weather.

    the Brietbart fools were claiming there was going to be blood in the streets.  In  the bluest state.  I love Boston.

    I would say that is one of the reasons they are a fringe element. If they never encountered protesters their numbers would swell. There a lot of Americans with the same mentality but don't have it in them to possibly throw it all away if they are exposed as a racist. Just turning a blind eye to these marches isn't enough.

    20,000 protesters is a lot. They're used to marching in places that are more sympathetic.

    I don't know about taking over, but when they're in the white house and the president is a white supremacist, it's cause for concern.

    Yea, because we all know that without the press, Nazis wouldn't exist. Keep justifying the unjustifiable.

    The sparsely attended Alt-Right rally on Boston Common is reportedly already over.

    Well done, Boston.

    No, in fact it doesn't. Please enlighten us. Or at least me if Trump's actions as president has so empowered and assisted the minority community.

    A non-issue that killed a young woman a few days ago and then celebrated that. A non-issue that has committed to bringing back atrocities that were better left behind 60 years ago. 

    Boston was never going to be the place where thousands of fascists turned up for this rally. It's not Boston we really need to worry about, at least right now. But all areas need to be mindful of what could develop, with the Presidenf giving tacit approval.
