Pastor Darrell Scott on Greg Kelly talking about Trump and the protest. Darrell C. Scott is an American pastor and a member of President Donald Trump's executive transition team. He is a co-founder of the New Spirit Revival Center in Cleveland Heights, Ohio.. He is a co-founder, along with Michael D. Cohen, and board member of the National Diversity Coalition for Trump.
Pastor Darrell Scott, one of President Trump‘s biggest supporters, has stated that the president “has been the most pro-black president in my lifetime,” according to Newsweek. Scott, who stumps for Trump as part of the National Diversity Coalition for Trump, accompanied the president to Ypsilanti, Michigan, to attend a listening session with African American leaders last week.
Scott, who is also involved in the Black Voices for Trump campaign, made the exact same claim in August 2018, according to The Hill.
"This is probably the most pro-active administration regarding urban America and the faith-based community in my lifetime," Scott said, according to a White House transcript of the meeting.
"This president actually wants to prove something to our community, our faith-based community and our ethnic community,” he added. “This is probably going to be … the most pro-black president I’ve seen in my lifetime.”
Scott criticized former President Obama, saying he “felt like he didn’t have to prove” a dedication to the black and faith-based communities.
During the meeting, Trump spoke about the administration’s prison reform efforts, which are being largely led by Trump's son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner, who also attended the meeting. The House passed a bipartisan prison reform bill in May.
Trump also touted the current low unemployment rate for black Americans during the meeting, a topic he has repeatedly touched on during rallies and in other public appearances.
