Donald Trump and his mainly white crowd turned around to applaud a group of black supporters at a rally.

The crowd clapped and cheered around a dozen people of colour wearing and waving T-shirts with the slogan: “TRUMP & Republicans Are Not RACIST.”

Good for them. More and more minorities are feeling emboldened to express their support for our president.

Kind of weird though that they didn't wear the t-shirts to the event, they were provided to them after they arrived...just a coincidence I'm sure https://img.huffingtonpost.com/asset..._720_noupscale

I see a bunch of black guys standing where they want to be standing because they have free will.

Or because after they were handed their T-shirts and preprinted signs they were told where to sit so the cameras would have a good view of them.

Those black men were there because they wanted to be. Because they have free will.

Something every single one of you here mincing over their presence at a Trump rally is forgetting.

That’s the most shameful part of this. You people forgetting that Blacks are free people who can do whatever the hell they want.

Who's the real racists here?

The real racist is the guy who feels the need to point out every single person of color at any of his rallies.

But thankfully, that never takes up much time.

Tell me how that happened then....did they know when/where their special t-shirts would be handed out to them, did they pay to have those shirts printed up?

They got paid, it's really that simple, otherwise there wouldn't be photos of them gathered before hand with identical printed signs and then inside with identical t-shirts. If they had planned this themselves they at least would have been wearing the t-shirts not holding them up in the air

Worry about yourself. People of color are intelligent and capable and able to make their own decisions. They don’t need you to guide them through life. If black men want to attend Trump rallies wearing T-shirts handed to them as they enter that’s their choice as free Americans.

Can you handle that?

You just don’t get it. It doesn’t matter if they were driven to the rally and handed a hundred dollars and a T-shirt as they entered. They didn’t arrive in shackles and chains. They’re free men who wanted to attend a Trump rally so they did. What’s it to you?
