One problem. They're not needed. This discussion is a clear display of the huge gap between how liberals and conservatives see things and conservatives. As stated before, DC has a very large black & Democrat population, making it easy for someone like Obama to attract a large crowd. Nobody needs "statistics' to know that, unless they are very ignorant of DC demographics.
Trump on the other hand, isn't as popular with blacks as Obama, because unlike Obama, he's not black. Actually, Trump should be MORE popular with blacks than Obama, since he accomplished far more for blacks, than Obama ever did.
If there's any way to gauge it, take a look at the racial composition of Trump's crowd vs Obama's crowd. Wanna bet Obama's crowd was mostly black, and Trump's crowd mostly white ? (in conformance with the demographics of Wash DC)
As for the BLS, >>
"Among the race groups, jobless rates were higher than the national rate for Blacks (6.1 percent), American Indians and Alaska Natives (6.1 percent), and people categorized as being of Two or More Races (5.3 percent). Jobless rates were lower than the national rate for Asians (2.7 percent), Native Hawaiians and Other Pacific Islanders (3.2 percent), and Whites (3.3 percent)."
There you have it, just the way you asked for it, with blacks having twice the jobless rate as whites. This is while blacks have greater advantage to get jobs, because of affirmative Action discrimination that favors them, and discriminates against whites. >>

There are lots of other reports on it by various orgs. These appear to have numbers that are all over the place, wide ranging, but they all have one thing in common. They all show blacks having a much higher % of welfare tahn whites.
Even the leftist rag INSIDER, in a report highly favorable to blacks, admits >> "
- "These policies have had a cumulative effect over generations and help explain the massive wealth gap between Black and white Americans and the reason Black Americans are overrepresented in welfare programs."
Historians and economic-policy researchers told Business Insider how welfare programs have left Black Americans behind, dating back to the New Deal.

I remember back in 1976, I was in downtown Knoxville, Tennessee, and there was a line of (I counted 13 buses). All of the passengers were black, and every bus was marked "New York" on the destination sign. I asked one guy who was online to get in one of the buses, why so many of these people were going to New York. He said "Don't you know ?" I said "No, I don't". He said "Welfare. Ain't none here. Lots of it in New York."
He was right. In Knoxville, to get welfare, you had to either have 2 or more dependent children, or be
severely disabled. In New York City, ANYBODY could qualify for welfare, and I once briefly had it myself there, without severe disability or having any kids.
