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.

    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

        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
