Ja’Ron Smith, the highest-ranking African American official in President Donald Trump’s White House, told the Republican National Convention on Thursday that the commander-in-chief had prioritized issues important to black communities throughout his tenure in office.
“I just wish every American could see the deep empathy he showed to families whose loved ones were killed in senseless violence,” Smith said.
“It was a very important meeting, a very emotional meeting,” White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany told reporters afterward.
“One thing I’ve learned working under President Trump’s leadership, that we are not just about talk, we are about action,” he said at the meeting.
Donald Trump’s policies are helping blacks achieve the American Dream through “ladders of opportunity” said Ja’Ron Smith.
