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
Malcolm X: possibly the most famous American Muslim besides Muhammad Ali. A man who changed his name to el-Hajj Malik el-Shabazz. A fierce advocate for black liberation and self-determination
Some clown in 2024: I think he would’ve liked the ‘ban all Muslims’ and ‘look at my African-American’ guy
… I’m Muslim. And Malcolm X was right all along.
Instead of using YouTube for guidance, why don’t you talk to your Imam on Friday. The answer you get will be 1000 times more compassionate, practical and in-line with what your belief systems are than watching ‘Blacks for Trump’ videos.
It really sounds like you’re brainwashed by online content if you’re a pro-Trump muslim when Trump is the most anti-Muslim President in history. He literally tried to stop all Muslims entering the United States and then changed it to ‘countries which happen to be muslim’ when he was told it was illegal and discriminatory. The list of Islamophobic Trump quotes is endless, and if you’re going to search the internet for anything I suggest you start there.
Unless you’re a multi-millionaire or your last name is Trump, this guy is not your friend. He is nobody’s friend. Please stop caping for him on the internet because you’re only hurting yourself
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.
Name the specific policy failures that Biden has made which you believe are ‘a shitshow’ and ‘done more harm to the U.S. than terrorists’ and then tell us exactly what Trump has said he will do to fix them
Biden was old and Trump said he wouldn’t be old if he was president
The general consensus is that a convicted felon and sex offender and neofascist traitor should not be anywhere near the white house.
Take notice, all those Democrats that went after Trump, more than likely when Trump becomes president, he’s going to ram it up their angus. And most of the country will support their demise.
You’re saying Trump will go after people who opposed him politically if he gains power?
Where have I heard of things like that before…?
Germany in 1933. Which did not have a 246 year long culture of democracy and freedom like America does.
I don’t understand what you’re getting at here. America has been a good boy long enough that it’s allowed to be a little fachy now?
America’s culture and history gives us an extra layer of protection against fascism that man other countries do not have.
And how’s that working out for you with people gleefully calling for Trump to punish his political rivals?
Take notice, all those tribalistic rightwing cultists who are obsessed with their feelings because they have inferiority complexes. You have a mental illness. Mature adults aren’t obsessed with people’s feelings. Neither yours nor mine.
As for Treason Trump, his neofascist War on Democracy is going against 246 years of American culture. Convicted Sex Offender Loser Trump picked the worst country in the world to try to take people’s freedom away from them.
That’s not the general consensus
As to why Black Americans are leaving the Democratic party? Okay, then what is the general consensus? Apparently my Google’s search algorithm is bs.
The general consensus as to why white, black, and all kinds of Americans are leaving the Republican Party is because Convicted Sex Offender Treason Trump is a threat to democracy and the rule of law and repeatly slanders our great country and attacks our longstanding core values every f*cking time he loses court cases and elections.
Riiiight… good luck with all that.
Good luck with what? Maintaining our 246 year record of democracy and the rule of law? Did you really think proud Americans would let some petty loser and con artist come along after hundreds of years and steal that from us?
There is not a consensus that people are leaving the democratic party.
Also, polls only give you statistics about folk who will actually take a poll or reply to a pollster.
