Huh?
Turns out that recent efforts by Trump & Co. to show OVERWHELMING Black support are NOT what they want you to believe….
On line images of churches, rallies and visits to urban area’s by Trump are being sold on line as support for Trump….
But?
Careful study of the images reveals most of the people in the images are WHITE….
Hmmmmm?
People?
Please do NOT accept the media editors having reporters and idiot pundits trying to sell ya on Donald Trump making inroads with the Black vote….The idea is simply ludicrous ….
He isn’t……..
Trump held a roundtable meeting at a Black church in Detroit over the weekend that perfectly summarized Trump’s snake oil tendencies—with vastly inflated audience numbers, at least half of whom were white, and Trump ranting his staple complaints about the border, inflation, and crime.
Trump allies praised Trump’s appearance on Saturday at 180 Church as a smashing success, with Kellyanne Conway claiming over 8,000 people magically packed into the rows of seats where only a few hundred could have sat, even as many pews remained empty. Reuters notes the venue wasn’t at capacity by the time the roundtable began.
The pitch by Team Trump to appeal to Black voters in a city where in 2020 Biden won nearly 95 percent of the vote was further foiled by observations that many in the audience were, in fact, not Black. Per Russ McNamara of WDET, roughly half the crowd were white. Of the eight Black people who attended that he spoke with, none were congregates of the church.

Black Voters Say Indictments Don’t Boost Trump
A USA Today/Suffolk University poll of Black voters in Michigan found 79% flatly disagree that Trump’s criminal indictments have increased their support for him “because they see him as a fellow victim of discrimination and persecution in the justice system.” Only 15% agreed, and 6% had no opinion.
