New York Attorney General Letitia James successfully convicted former President Donald Trump of 34 felonies in his campaign hush-money trial in her "Black job."
Critics on social media have come out sparring hard against Donald Trump over his demeaning characterization of what he sees as a segregated group of "Black jobs."
Trump has often railed against immigrants for taking what he calls "Black jobs," and even "Hispanic jobs," apparently indicating work just about anyone can get.
He hasn't detailed what specific jobs and professions he's referring to, but critics suspect he isn't talking about rocket scientists, molecular biologists, presidents or even real estate developers.
Trump raised the issue again in his debate against President Joe Biden Thursday night.

In response to Trump's dismissive "Black jobs" characterization, one critic quipped to followers: "Your one 'Black job' this year" is to vote for Joe Biden.
People on social media have taken to posting their own professions or lists of jobs to demonstrate to Trump that "Black jobs" are just as varied and demanding as ... wait for it ... white jobs.

I had a great day at my BLACK job today! Or is it my DEI job? I can't keep up with the latest racist term. Nevertheless, it was a great day across Baltimore. #BlackJob pic.twitter.com/ODk8IO8uLV
