"Presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump repeated his characterization of Black communities as dangerous and depressed on Saturday, courting voters in a city he has called 'hell' and 'totally corrupt' as his campaign hopes incremental gains with Black voters could be decisive in swing states."

At a "black church" to a mostly-white audience.

@SueDiOh Yes, a totally astroturfed event with people trucked in to play-act as Trump's Black supporters.

@wdlindsy I love that his crowds keep getting smaller. He can't even fill a church now.

@SueDiOh Yes — and he lies even more boldly about the "yuuge" numbers the smaller the crowds become.

Chitown Kev, who is Black, responds to what Trump said at a Black church in Detroit yesterday:

"Trump has been giving Detroit the Milwaukee/Chicago/Baltimore treatment for years now and did so again in this latest visit. Any Black person that votes for Trump is a goddamn fool. No asterisk. Period."
