Donald Trump’s appearance at an African-American church in Detroit went wrong, as the congregation rejected Trump by not showing up to hear him speak.

Here was the scene as Trump entered the church:

The place was nearly empty. Donald Trump did give a speech to the few members of the congregation that were there and it was as condescending and offensive as one would imagine.

The whole appearance was about the photo-op of Trump appearing in an African-American church. Donald Trump is not sincerely trying to get the votes of African-Americans. The Republican nominee is trying to convince white suburban voters that he is not a racist.

Trump’s publicity stunt backfired because the church congregation in large part refused to be used as political props. Donald Trump went to an African-American church, said some words that he didn’t write, and then posed for pictures.

What the Trump campaign never planned for was the rejection of their candidate by the congregation.

same stuff I heard from the talking heads on TV. I think sometimes we WAY over-analyze things.
For sure the talking heads do.

Trump is pretty straight forward ( whatever you think of him).
It seems to me he might actually care about rebuilding Detroit and helping African Americans

if you say so. You and the talking heads are reading his mind then?

How about this: It's both a good electoral strategy, and the right thing to do?

When I look at Baltimore (my hometown i'm familiar with) and see the constant pumping of monies for education /job training etc,.
and the situation deteriorates even more over time for those stuck in the city...I have to wonder " what do you have to lose"
by trying another path?
