In the weeks since Donald Trump began making an overt appeal to African-Americans, one of the greatest criticisms he has received is that his appeals are made before largely white audiences. This weekend, Trump is addressing those concerns head-on, traveling to Detroit, Michigan, to attend a black church service and interview with the presiding bishop.
He will attend the Saturday service at Great Faith International Ministries and will also participate in an interview with Bishop Wayne Jackson that will air on Jackson’s Impact Network. This is the first time that Trump has attended a black church during this cycle. Conversely, his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton and her running mate, Tim Kaine, have visited several Sunday services at various black churches.

His support in the black community will only grow over the next 2 months.

His support in the black community will only grow over the next 2 months.

It’s not likely to go down.
I have to applaud Trump for trying. Democrats have been taking the good black people for granted for far too long.
So now it’s that they attended more black churches than him. Next will be the parishioners aren’t black enough, and that’s not a sarcasm. It will be next. Conservative blacks don’t count.
He just needs a few votes in the swing states
and he can trash the economy with out directly attacking Obama
Just say it has not worked for fifty years
Will the left have the cajones to holler about separation of church and state? The IRS? The FBI? Ho Ho Hee Hee I love the smell of mendacity in the morning.
The out reach is not new. It started when he opened Mar Lago It was the first club of its type open to Jews and AA. The estaishment was furious with Trump — nothing new!
She hasn't had a chance to run anything yet. She will be a continuation of what's been going on, though.

The Republicans made a few attempts to get black votes, but were repeatedly shot down by the old media.
Trump is going around to old media to make appeals they cannot derail.
We live in interesting times, indeed. If Trump wins, and I think he has a very good chance, it will be the end of the mediacracy that has existed at least since 1965, and perhaps since 1900, with a two exceptions.
Those exceptions would be Harding and Coolidge and Reagan. The rest were all “progressive” media supported presidents.
Even Nixon was a “progressive”, the media simply hated him because he was not “progressive” enough, and they took him out in a media coup.
If you like your liebrally run plantation, you can keep your liebrally run plantation.
Is that what folks of color and poverty enclaves want for their children?
My hope is that despite the threats, they can provide enough security so the event can go off. Trump going into the belly of the beast, even if it garners no votes, is the necessary (and future) path anyone wanting to correct the course of our country must be willing to take.
I’m tired of hearing that Pubbies don’t even try for the Black vote. It’s well past time to destroy that excuse that blacks give for not considering a Dem alternative.
No bias here...

Yep. Took him out for less than they had on Hillary.
