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.

    People have serious issues and want to be heard, but Biden is too busy dining with George Clooney in California than campaigning in Michigan…

    Biden with George Clooney in California:

    oh no, sorry. That’s in Warren Michigan in Feb 2024 source

    Biden with George Clooney in California:

    oh no, sorry. Thats in Detroit Michigan in May 2024

    Biden with George Clooney in California:

    oh no, sorry. Thats in Michigan where he was supporting Union workers in Sept 2023 source

    And like, am I the only one that forgets Hillary’s victory lap and focus on big donors instead of boots on the ground campaigning being one of the reason we already got stuck with trump for four years?

    Why are we just doing it again?

    Err, if your memory is anything to go by…we’re not? You’re painting this false narrative as a strawman saying Biden hasn’t been in Michigan and he was there LAST MONTH!
