What?
How can this be?
The Left rants and cries how he’s a racist. There’s no way a racist could do anything like this.
No way.
These are the kinds of numbers that give Democrats nightmares.
With their hopes for defeating President Donald Trump in 2020 depending largely on turning out the black vote in its usual monolithic numbers, Democrats have been relentless in trying to paint the Trump administration as an unadulterated evil for African-Americans.
But a report released this month by the U.S. Sentencing Commission just made that job many, many times harder.
The report found that the First Step Act of 2018, a criminal sentencing reform bill passed by a Republican Congress and signed by Trump in December 2018, had benefited black prisoners incarcerated in the federal prison system in numbers far greater than other races.
We don’t need the report to know this. All we have to do is watch the interviews of people who’ve benefited from this program.
