Agreed! Why are people so upset that Trump took over a Black Church while Promoting how Black People love him while talking to an All White crowd?
Except it wasn't an all White crowd. The Youtube video I posted of that event shows a different story than this pitiful waste of time article.
You're right. There were 8 black people in attendance, but only 1 of them lived in the area.
If they have to bus in black people to go this black church, how many of the white people do you really think lived in that area?
I dunno what about this claim seems factual to you guys... it's like you're grasping at straws.

You guys are getting played by the media. They're providing images at certain angles and certain parts of the building instead of giving you a zoomed out version. I can't even find anything to provide a zoomed out version. There's also photos that are taken before the event began that are being used as proof. It's pretty embarrassing.
It's like that CIA persuasion tactic they used, where they bring in 19 CIA agents, pretending to not be CIA or in any way related... and the 20th person is some random (the test subject). They pull up a square, all 19 agents say it's a triangle... and the 20th person, the one that's getting tested, has no other option but to be persuaded that it is a triangle, not the actual square that their eyes can clearly see.
It's a square. Not a triangle.
You just posted a heavily cropped and compressed picture of a handful of black people, whereas there are pictures in this thread showing wide shots of hundreds of white people. What are you trying to prove here?
This guy lol. Completely ignores every wide shot available of the event, complains there are no wide shots, then uses a tight cropped photo from something. Then goes on about some cia conspiracy.
How do you come up with this crap? Lol
Is it fake media? From the mainstream?
Well it's kind of interesting that social media like TikTok and Telegram tends to challenge the mainstream narrative of both sides. I'm very wary of anything from mainstream media, honestly.
Ok guy. You have fun in your little world. Peace.
