If you are correct, it is the New York Times that has jumped the gun and/or lied.
both the NYT and trump's campaign seem to be overly optimistic with the "expected" endorsement of 100 black pastors.
Quote:
However, your article only appears to be quoting one pastor and not the other 99 or so.
the article quotes five. Bishop Clarence McClendon, Bishop Corletta Vaughn, Bishop Paul Morton, Rev. Jamal Bryant and Pastor Darrell Scott whom initially did give his personal endorsement of trump.
I noticed a half first generation Kenyan-American/half plain vanilla gringo, little in common with African Americans who have been on this soil for more than 300 years, masquerading as one of them.
If African Americans are smart, they would recognize that the monster has two heads but the body is one, and play both sides against the middle accordingly, like most smart business people in the US have done since day one, and that is the very purpose for which political parties exist, to syphon resources out of the economic system.
In fact, I know some very successful African Americans who do just that.
I can see for a couple of reasons why these pastors may be supporting Trump. Perhaps, Carson is in line as a running mate. Also that Trump is putting his foot down so strongly on illegal aliens, Hispanic specifically. These groups compete for jobs with urban African Americans in big cities.
“I am not officially endorsing ANY candidate and when I do you will NOT need to hear it from pulpitting courtjesters who suffer from intellectual and spiritual myopia,”
In fact, of the pastors scheduled to meet with Trump earlier in the day, so far only one, Pastor Darrell Scott, has said he will attend the press conference to endorse Trump.
In an interview with the Daily Beast on Friday, Scott said that he had organized Monday’s meeting between Trump and black clergy, but that his invitation was for them to meet with Trump, not to endorse him.
So, a substantial number of leaders in the black community are apparently going to endorse Donald Trump on Monday.
So, if supporters of Trump are racist, then these guys must be too, right?
Such folk are apparently not only racist but liars as well - since there's going to be no such mass endorsement (and NEVER was).
