Angry protesters ready for Trump ahead of his Detroit visit

September 03, 2016

DETROIT (AP) – Toni McIlwain believes that as a candidate for president, Donald Trump has a right to go anywhere he wants. But, she says, it takes a lot of nerve for him to visit Detroit.

Many black people in the city, she says, are still stung by the Republican presidential nominee’s visit to Michigan last month, when he went before a mostly white audience and declared, “You live in your poverty, your schools are no good, you have no jobs, 58 percent of your youth is unemployed.” He asked, rhetorically, what blacks had to lose by voting for him instead of Democrat Hillary Clinton.

“People picked up on” Trump saying “you’re all just crap,” said McIlwain, who for years ran a community center that offered education and drug prevention programs in one of Detroit’s most distressed neighborhoods.

“He generalized the total black community. How dare you talk to us like that and talk about us like that?” she said.

Trump was going to Detroit to make what appeared to be a late attempt to woo black voters roughly two months before the general election.

Protesters waited.

Unlike his usual campaign stops where he confidently addressed mostly white crowds that supported him and his plans for the country, Trump’s visit was intended to be more intimate.

He was to attend a service Saturday at an African-American church, but was expected to address the congregation with only a brief greeting. He was scheduled to record a private interview with the church’s pastor, Bishop Wayne T. Jackson, and take some kind of tour with his former rival, Detroit native and retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson.

Carson, who has been advising Trump’s campaign, told The Associated Press that the trip would serve as an opportunity for the GOP nominee to see the challenges residents face as he refines his policy plans.

“It always makes much more of an impression, I think, when you see things firsthand,” he said.

Trump Rally in Everett.  He went on and on about African Americans and Hispanic Latino’s being poor.  Couldn’t find any African Americans in the crowd.  I looked at images and watched the video partially till I couldn’t watch anymore.

Michigan's 100,000 illegal immigrants await Obama order

Question in a town where African Americans are at approximately 17% unemployment do they want to hear about amnesty from Trump?  100,000 illegal immigrants in Detroit are not taking African American jobs?

Donald Trump does have a point.....kinda.   As a pro-big-government New York liberal.....he would naturally continue, if not increase, all of those freebies for the Obama Gimmedats.  That's a given.  His problem will now be to convince all of "Obama's people" that he's going to be just as generous with that stash as Obama has been.  It's going to be fun and entertaining watching him try, anyway.

No quarter given to the enemy within...ever.

You can vote your way into socialism, but you have to shoot your way out of it.

Everything is the same.  Nothing changes.

Some people are offended by sunlight... :shrug:

Well sir wouldn't call it offended.  Just call it reality.  Trump can't be all things to all people.  Its all about the vote.  Not any real compassion or real information on what is causing economic problems for African Americans.  He wouldn't lump the two races together knowing that there is a growing conflict in America over African Americans and Hispanic/Latino's.  And it seems you are offended that others are noticing how ineffective Trump is at reaching real people.

How about substance?  How is he going to help them?  He is every direction and no direction at all.
