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.

    Take notice, all those Democrats that went after Trump, more than likely when Trump becomes president, he’s going to ram it up their angus. And most of the country will support their demise.

      You’re saying Trump will go after people who opposed him politically if he gains power?

      Where have I heard of things like that before…?

        Germany in 1933. Which did not have a 246 year long culture of democracy and freedom like America does.

          I don’t understand what you’re getting at here. America has been a good boy long enough that it’s allowed to be a little fachy now?

            America’s culture and history gives us an extra layer of protection against fascism that man other countries do not have.

              And how’s that working out for you with people gleefully calling for Trump to punish his political rivals?

      Take notice, all those tribalistic rightwing cultists who are obsessed with their feelings because they have inferiority complexes. You have a mental illness. Mature adults aren’t obsessed with people’s feelings. Neither yours nor mine.

      As for Treason Trump, his neofascist War on Democracy is going against 246 years of American culture. Convicted Sex Offender Loser Trump picked the worst country in the world to try to take people’s freedom away from them.
