When asked by CNN moderator Dana Bash about what Biden has done for Black voters, the newly-convicted felon delivered a completely unserious answer that prompted serious questions about ‘Black jobs’ and whether we’ve been missing out by not applying for any.
“They’re taking Black jobs now–and it could be 18, it could be 19 and even 20 million people. They’re taking Black jobs, and they’re taking Hispanic jobs, and you haven’t seen it yet, but you’re gonna see something that’s going to be the worst in our history.”

In response to Trump’s blithering, Biden reminded voters of the historically low Black unemployment rates under his administration. Back in April 2023, the unemployment rate for Black workers clocked in at a record-low 4.8%.
Under Trump, the Black unemployment rate rose to nearly 8% from 2016 to 2020 and ballooned to over 9% when Biden defeated Trump in the 2020 election, according to Newsweek.
“There’s no such thing as a Black job or a white job,” said Derrick Johnson, CEO of the NAACP, in an interview with NBC News. “They’re hardworking Americans who are seeking to have quality jobs, and that should be the goal of this conversation.”
For decades, Black folks have used humor to cope with blatant bigotry and last night was no different on social media which bustled with ‘Black job’ jokes on Twitter and beyond.
List some "Black Jobs."
I'll go first:
Person who starts electric slide at event to keep everybody on beat.
Person who has TikTok dance stolen and monetized.

Interestingly, the nearly 48 million who watched the debate on TV was a 35% drop in audience from 2020 when more than 73 million people watched the first debate between Trump and Biden across networks.
In 2016, a record 84 million watched the first debate between Hillary Clinton and Trump.
