It really is ironic that it was Trump to actually reach out and speak to Blacks to vote for him (he could've used better rhetoric, but I'll at least commend him for trying.) If he can really do something to fix the inner cities and then hit black vote will be higher than. 8% next time.

Agreed. It's a start. Both parties needed to quit accepting that the black vote is a foregone conclusion. Dems ignore the demographic because they assume they've got the votes anyways, and Republicans ignored the demographic because they assumes there'd be no hope of reception.

Something has to change both without and within the voting bloc.
