Jones acknowledged Trump's previous efforts to address issues within the Black community, such as implementing opportunity zones and funding historically Black colleges. However, he believes that Trump can further strengthen his appeal by outlining specific policies that directly benefit Black voters.
Jones expressed frustration with the overreach of local governments, which he believes has contributed to the economic challenges faced by the South Side. He suggests that Trump promise to support efforts to combat excessive regulation and taxation at the local level.

According to Jones, abortion is not a primary concern for Black voters. He believes that economic issues are of greater importance to the community.
Jones argued that addressing the root causes of abortion, such as financial hardship, would lead to a decrease in abortion rates. He stressed the need for economic policies that empower families.

Jones expressed personal support for a hardline stance against abortion. However, he noted that Trump's evolving views on Florida's Amendment 4 may have an impact on his appeal to pro-life voters.
Florida voters will decide on Amendment 4 in November, which would enshrine a constitutional right to abortion in the state. Trump's comments on the amendment have sparked both criticism and support.
Jones believes that Trump's success in attracting Black voters depends on his ability to connect with their economic concerns and propose solutions that address inflation, job creation, and entrepreneurship. He also emphasizes the importance of addressing the impact of local government overreach.
