In her dispatch on the event, Jane notes that Trump didn’t even bother to show up and instead spoke to attendees via telephone about his planned tax cuts for businesses.

Lmao, asshole literally phoned it in

How is it possible to be a member of the pre-civil-rights generation of white people and be so oblivious as to

• DON A SHIRT that says in huge letters “Blacks for Trump”
• Wear it in public
• To an event ostensibly targeted to black people
• Willingly pose for a picture wearing it with no black people in evidence except those laughing at you or giving you the side eye from a distance.

Notice the event is named “Black Americans for Trump” and not “Blacks for Trump”. That’s awfully woke of them don’t you think?

Suprised they did not just add makeup.

Edit: grammer and phrasing, improved a bit

Edit2: removed, “People showing up to rallies is one thing, but l”, explaining zip code differences, not mentioned in article, it would be interesting to see data though

Let us not delude ourselves into thinking that the polls do not show differences when looking at poll data from 2020 vs. 2024.

Let us see if certain groups of people who supported Joe in 2020 will be showing up to vote in November 2024.

It is not just Black Americans or Latino Americans where we are seeing a shift when looking at 2020 vs. 2024 data.

It seems to be a barebones article, but it does have some information:

“The roundtable setup featured Representative (and Trump V.P. wannabe) Byron Donalds, former Trump Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson, and Representative Wesley Hunt in attendance,” she writes. “The seats were positioned in a semi-arc facing a gaggle of cameras and sea of white people, and everyone looks abundantly unenthused to be there.”

Jane goes on to explain how the Atlanta event was just one of a string of failed Black voter outreach efforts.

“In May, Trump hosted a small rally in the Bronx to gin up the Black vote after an even smaller appearance at a Harlem bodega in April,” she writes. “And in June, Trump appeared at a Black church in Detroit before skipping off to a white nationalist convention. The church stunt was a flop: At least half the audience was white, none of the attendees reporters spoke with were actual congregants, and the megachurch’s pastor said people laughed in his face when he scrambled to find people to fill the pews for the event.”
