huh? he's... still talking about black people there? though admittedly in an awkward way. that's all in the trend of "black lives are better now."

ok, if multiple people interpreted the tweet that way i'll admit i was wrong. if that's what he meant that's... less bad than what i thought he said, but still bad. the reason martin luther king is legendary is because he did a lot to combat racism against black people. the fact that trump is going "LOOK AT HOW MUCH JOBS BLACK PEOPLE HAVE" is... tangentially related to king's legacy at best.

also, as LotM and peace_frog pointed out, it's rather perverse that trump is praising MLK when he himself has a long history of saying shit that's racist as fuck. that's an aspect i didn't even consider initially but yeah, that makes it even worse.
