The Platinum Plan was a great move by President Trump, Black Voices for Trump co-chair Jack Brewer said on Sunday.

“We talk about African Americans and we all know post-slavery, we’ve had declines in our educational capacity, had declines in our various business opportunities, but, now that’s all changing under this president. The Platinum Plan will bring a half-trillion dollars to Black America,” the former NFL player told "Fox & Friends."

Brewer said there has never been “in the history of the world such an inclusive” plan for “Black America.”

“And we need that right now,” Brewer said.


Meanwhile, rapper Lil Wayne made a big splash on Twitter after he revealed that he met with Trump, sharing a friendly photo the two of them took together.

"Just had a great meeting with @realdonaldtrump @potus besides what he’s done so far with criminal reform, the platinum plan is going to give the community real ownership. He listened to what we had to say today and assured he will and can get it done," Lil Wayne said.


The Platnum Plan is an economic plan rolled out by the Trump campaign aiming to help Black Americans.

Lil Wayne, born Dwayne Michael Carter Jr., also posted a photo of himself with the president from the meeting that took place Thursday in Miami, giving a thumbs-up to the camera.


It is unclear if Lil Wayne is offering an official endorsement of Trump with the tweet.

Lil Wayne is the latest high-profile rapper to either express support for the president or extend an olive branch in recent weeks. Ice Cube similarly met with the Trump campaign to discuss the Platinum Plan and drew a similar response.


Brewer expects unprecedented support from African Americans for Trump.

“I think it is going to be able to be felt and heard on Nov. 3 when African Americans come out for this president more than they have for any Republican in our generation,” Brewer said.

I follow some black conservative channels on youtube and I'd be shocked if Trump didn't significantly increase his support from black voters this time around.

It looks like Jack Brewer was right. It's refreshing to see black voters escaping from the Democrat Plantation.

Black men shift slightly toward Trump in record numbers, polls show

Support for the Democratic presidential candidate reached a new low among Black men this year, according to the NBC News poll of early and Election Day voters.

Eighty percent of Black men supported Joe Biden, down slightly from Hilary Clinton’s 82 percent in 2016 but significantly down from Barack Obama’s level of support among Black men in 2012 and 2008.

In Obama’s first presidential campaign, 95 percent of Black male voters and 96 percent of Black women chose him. Four years later, support from Black women remained at 96 percent for Obama’s 2012 re-election, while the figure for Black men slid to 87 percent.

In 2016, when the nominee was Hillary Clinton, Black men dropped further to 82 percent while Black women’s support for Clinton remained high at 94 percent. Biden came close to matching that this year, garnering the support of 91 percent of Black women.

Support for the Democratic presidential candidate in general appears to be slipping among Black women as well, but to a much smaller degree. Biden still enjoyed the support of more than 9 out of every 10 Black female voters.

There were a few groups that appear to have driven this shift toward President Donald Trump among Black men. Over half of Black men (52 percent) who identified as ideologically conservative cast their vote for the president, and 1 in 3 Black men living in the Midwest also voted for him.

There was an unusual relationship between education and how Black men voted this year. About 26 percent of Black men who had a high school diploma or less supported Trump. But 22 percent of Black men with bachelor’s degrees and 20 percent of Black men with advanced degrees also supported him. Black men with some college education broke for Biden at levels comparable to those of Black women.

The shifts follow a busy campaign push by both candidates to capture Black voters’ support. Biden campaigned in Philadelphia over the weekend and attended “souls to the polls” events among Black faith communities. His running mate, Sen. Kamala Harris, who would be the first Black and first female vice president if elected, urged Black voters in Atlanta and the surrounding suburbs to “honor the ancestors” by heading to the polls and voting for the Democrats. In any case, a path to victory for the Democrats has routinely required strong showings in cities with heavy Black populations, like Atlanta, Detroit and Philadelphia.

Trump has stumped for Black support this election season, gaining endorsements from rappers like Lil Wayne and partnering with entertainer Ice Cube to create an investment plan for Black America dubbed the Platinum Plan.
