I think it was originally a Reagan statement..Yeah, he got around 8% of the black vote. Mostly because of economics. Trump said it all the time, incomes have risen more for black Americans than under any other president, until Covid struck. Of course, what he didn't mention is that incomes rose for every ethnic group, and it rose the least for blacks.
Trump got 8% of the black vote in 2016 and 12% in 2020. While Democrats run around treating blacks like the kid on the short bus, the Republican motto is a rising tide lifts all boats which is exactly what happened. No special considerations, no special programs, just everybody working and the entire country benefited.

Rising tide lifts all boats was an Obama statement.
