Trump to visit Detroit church as part of Black voter push
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump will venture to Detroit on Saturday to attend a roundtable discussion at a Black church, the latest in an effort to peel away Black voters from President Joe Biden ahead of November's election.
Trump’s planned visit to a church nestled in the heart of Detroit's west side has received fierce pushback from local Democrats and the Biden campaign who argued Trump did little as president to improve Black communities nationwide.
Trump has denigrated Detroit in the past as "corrupt," but both he and Biden have identified Michigan as a must-win state, and the vote there is expected to be as close or closer than it was four years ago.
Will he be shilling his $60 “trump bible” there?
There is a pastor on YouTube who reviews bibles (weird, I know) and he got one and said it was (unsurprisingly) cheap and flimsy, made with fake leather, and it was probably not printed in the U.S. because it didn't say it was, which is something they would almost certainly tout.
Also, I didn't realize the bible scam was a collaboration with Lee Greenwood. That somehow makes it worse.
It’s printed in China. Ironically, I found this confirmation on Fox in a piece against Chinese tariffs. Lol

What a waste of his time. Detroit isn't going to vote Trump in any meaningful way. The best he can hope for is voter apathy and not say something racist whiles he's there
This was his strategy in 2016.
But it's not just Detroit that matters in this case since the presidential election hinges on total for the state, not individual voting districts. So sure, he's not going to win the district but that doesn't affect the race. So since Detroit is the largest city, it's still the place to convert more people at once. And he doesn't need to convert them to vote for him. He just needs to convince them not to cast a desperation vote against him.
I was going to make some snarky comment, but I was completely distracted by the guy in the brick-patterned suit and matching tie. WTF? Maybe he was going for some kind of wall reference? Where did he even get that abomination?
Our country is full of idiots.
He's got real load runner vibes lol
I would pay money for someone to paint a tunnel on his back
For me it was the guy in slide one with the lil' sebastian pony tail. Brick man is just the washed up kool-aid man after the royalties ran out and the brain damage kicked it from repeated head trauma (plus diabeetus). Ohh nooo!
Oh cool... we get to see which old white man looks more awkward around a bunch of black people singing and dancing!
I think I would take awkward "how the hell did I end up here?" over "Hey, remember when we used to own them?":
or the "double invisible handy":
Either way, it will be embarrassing, but I'll be voting for the guy who doesn't still insist the Central Park Five are guilty.
I hate this shit. No one gives a shit about black ppl until they need our vote
Also, it's sort of around the time of Juneteenth! Juneteenth, MLK day and the first day of February are the three days the media remembers black people exist.
Two more positive-ish occasions then the LGBT folks, so I suppose they have that going for them, which is nice.
LGBT folks are catered to A LOT more than black ppl. Mainly because LGBT ppl can be white. Now if you're brown and LGBT you can't pretty much fuck off as far as they're concerned
LGBT folks have like one day the media remembers (pride month... though really only the first) compared to the black folks three was all I was saying.
Why is he fucking Frozen
He’s an 81-year-old white guy surrounded by black people singing and dancing. I’m thinking frozen might be the best move.
Imagine if he was trying to dance along.
This looks fake as fuck lol. He is stiff, but he ain't that stiff lmao. He'd at least attempt the patented White Man Shuffle
It's real, I promise you. And it actually goes on for way longer. It's very weird. But then Biden is weird.
Still 1,000 times better than Trump, lol.
I'll take weird stiff guy over horrible nazi guy anyday.
Oh no question. Which one of them is weirder around black people is not really what will decide my vote, it will just amuse me.
Politicians tend to do that.
Trump's black voter push sounds he committed assault.
I can’t find the newspaper photo of him awkwardly failing to comfort a black woman, but it was a pretty indelible image. If anyone can find that please link it.
