It's a non issue as long as Trump doesn't want any black voters other than the ones that like being treated that way.
Your assertion "being treated that way" is all based on surmise. You have no FACTS to support your assumptions. And Mr McNelly doesn't think he was mistreated. He's said as much.
Mr McNelly evidently says he wasn't thrown out. I haven't heard that anyone was thrown out.
"Michael McNeely, the first vice chair of the Georgia Republicans, was escorted out of Atlanta’s Fox Theatre by Secret Service after being told there was “no more room for you” by Trump campaign state director Brandon Phillips, according to a party official briefed on the incident. The official requested anonymity said they were not authorized to speak on behalf of the party."
It sounds like he was thrown out but he doesn't want to go against the party. He made the choice of party over everything else. That's on him but others should take notice because this says so so much about Trump. Even the Trump official wanted anonymity.

I think we have to take Mr McNelly's statement at face value. That's the only credible statement about what happened. An anonymous statement, where the person is unwilling to own his own narrative cannot be given precedent over the statement of a person directly involved and willing to be identified.
We don't know why Mr McNeely was asked to leave, and Mr McNeely has issued a statement that he bears no hard will towards the Trump campaign.
Does anyone else notice that the liberals constantly have their noses in the private business of anyone that has an interaction with Trump these days? I realize they are desperate, and let's face it, these are obviously people that thrive on gossip, the constant "Twitter" and the excitement about the personal life of Trump....
Seriously, it is easy to see why they support Hillary. I won't detail, but it is easy to see!

You mean a Trump campaign operative who throws him out and refuses to be identified because it looks so bad should not be believed over a minority that fears losing the potential of his position as being one of a very few minority participants in the Republican party?
Do I believe they apologized? Yes, I believe someone that was probably not Donald Trump probably apologized. Was anyone else asked to leave? Was the only person that was asked to leave the one black guy because Trump didn't want to shake his hand at a meet and greet? Yeah, probably. If it looks like a duck...

Like you said, if he chose party over the cause of him being tossed out is on him. If it comes out that black people (not protesters) were routinely tossed out of receiving lines, it would be on him to explain whether he lied or had been told a valid reason for his expulsion. FWIW, I wold have no problem believing that the color of his skin was part of his expulsion. Trump may or may not be a racist but his paranoia makes Dick Nixon look normal.

I used to think the suspicions of Donald Trump as a racist were overblown. I no longer think that. He seems to have serious issues with regard to race. Is it an age thing? I don't know but I've never seen anyone so overt in word and action.
