Donald Trump was ridiculed Saturday after attending what his campaign called a Black roundtable at a Detroit church — with photos showing a largely white audience.

Trump’s campaign reached out to the 180 Church to set up the event at which attendees asked a handful of questions before bursting into a rendition of Happy Birthday.

The evangelical church is in the heart of Detroit’s west side and has a mainly Black congregation.

But photos caught by the media, and shared widely online, showed a lot of white people in the audience.

      What makes you think anyone is upset? Ridicule comes not from people being upset about something, but thinking that this is the dumbest thing they’ve seen in quite a while. Getting ridicule should tell you you need to be a bit more introspective about what you’re doing. And since this is Trump we’re talking about here, we know that shithead isn’t going to be introspective about anything, so we just point out the irony that Trump claims he has “very strong support, so very strong” with the Black community, but can’t seem to find a single Black person to put in his photos of the event.

        I guess the only option here is to literally Youtube, “Blacks Trump”. The general consensus is that Blacks are tired of being fooled by Democrats. They should have taken Malcolm X more seriously /shrug

                lol don’t worry about my deen, son. If I see bs, just like any other user here on lemmy, I’m going to call it out. At the very least question it to get more context and go from there.

                I’m not worried, as a Muslim, what Trump thinks about Muslims. However, Trump is the only running candidate that will fix the chit show that Biden has given us. And don’t worry, I’m not putting the full blame on Biden… we had previous presidents that have neglected its people and done more harm to the U.S. than terrorists have.

                  You’ll see the rainbow bridge after it rains cats and dogs.
