Trump gets schooled by Black pastor. |
Republican nominee Donald Trump made an unexpected trip to Flint, Michigan.
He paid a visit to the city to tour a water treatment plant and attend a Black church.
Trump's outreach to Blacks went awry. Speaking to about 70 people, Trump starts laying into his opponent inside Bethel United Methodist Church. Trump attempted to blame his opponent for the crisis in Flint, but it was stopped at the gate.
Rev. Faith Green Timmons, pastor of the church interrupted him asked him stay focused on the progress in Flint.
"Mr. Trump, I invited you here to thank us for what we've done in Flint, not to give a political speech."
"Oh, oh, oh, Ok, that's good," Trump said. "Then I'm going back to Flint."
Trump called the water crisis a "shame".
Flint's mayor Karen Weaver said that Trump's visit to the city is a photo-op and it deprives valuable time from the workers trying to fix the water systems. She is a supporter of Hillary Clinton. Weaver was in Washington, DC lobbying Congress to pass emergency funding for her city.
She hasn't forgotten the debates in which Trump and the other 16 turds failed to mention the crisis in Flint. Clinton has also face criticism from this. She only appeared in Flint during the debates and hasn't been back since. She would loss Michigan to Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) in the Democratic primaries.
The Kellyanne Conway approach seems to be working for Trump for the time being. The Republican is catching up with Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton in Ohio and Florida. The Republican is trying to make outreach to the Black community. It's like the junk food media's forgotten about Trump and his acolytes.

They forgot about Trump running this "law and order" nonsense with Wisconsin sheriff David Clarke.
He is retweeting from White extremists.
His allies are racial agitators like David Duke and Stephen Bannon.
His best buddies are Roger "Pervert" Ailes, Old Fart Rush Limbaugh, Roger "Shitface" Stone, Sean "Softball" Hannity, Breitbart and internet creeper Matt Drudge.
They forgotten that Trump questioned President Barack Obama's birth certificate and his religion.
I know I have not forgotten that Trump and Republicans deliberate attempts to undermine Black America.
Call this the "New Trump". Another pivot. A more discipline Trump who will say things from a teleprompter and try to actually lay out a plan to help millions of Americans he scorned during his presidential run.
