Donald Trump was ridiculed Saturday after attending what his campaign called a Black roundtable at a Detroit church — with photos showing a largely white audience.

Trump’s campaign reached out to the 180 Church to set up the event at which attendees asked a handful of questions before bursting into a rendition of Happy Birthday.

The evangelical church is in the heart of Detroit’s west side and has a mainly Black congregation.

But photos caught by the media, and shared widely online, showed a lot of white people in the audience.

    Where have I heard of things like that before…?

    Germany in 1933. Which did not have a 246 year long culture of democracy and freedom like America does.

      I don’t understand what you’re getting at here. America has been a good boy long enough that it’s allowed to be a little fachy now?
