Columbia, SC (AP)-Former President Donald Trump on Friday claimed that four of his criminal prosecution have promoted their support among black Americans as they see him as a victim of discrimination, comparing his legal threat to the historical heritage of black anti-bias in the American legal system.
Trump argues that he is a victim of political oppression, even though there is no evidence that the President Joe Biden or White House officials influenced the allegations of 91 hooliganism against him. Earlier in the week, Trump compared himself to Alexai Navalni, the top domestic rival of Russian President Vladimir Putin, who was killed in a remote Arctic jail after a Kremlin leader went to jail.
Trump said at a black-tie event for black conservators in South Carolina before Saturday’s Republican primary, “I have nothing, nothing.” “And many people said that this is why black people are like me, because they have been hurt so badly and have been discriminated against, and they have really seen me because I am being discriminated against. This is very surprising, but possibly, perhaps, there is something. ,
Trump has focused his third campaign for the White House on his complaints against Biden and alleged that he is a “deep kingdom”, even he faces allegations of his efforts to turn the 2020 election, which keeps classified documents in Florida Estate, and allegedly arranges for a porn actress. He is a major Republican Front-Runner, as many GOP voters echo their beliefs, and are in favor of defeating former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley in their home state.
Trump noted the Mug shot after Georgia officials were accused of state allegations in the 2020 election.
“When I shot a mug shot in Atlanta, the mug shot is number 1,” he said, “You know who hugged it more than someone else?”
Trump’s campaign has predicted that he could do better with black voters in November, as he did four years ago, cited with Biden’s black adults and the Trump sees as advantages on issues like Trump Economy and in a record-high number of cities with large black-populated cities, often in a record-high number of cities.
He was placed on stage at Gala of Black Conservative Federation in Columbia, South Carolina, which included Reps Bayron Donald and Vesley Hunt of Texas by Black -elected officials. Many people in the crowd were happy throughout the speech.
In a freewing speech, Trump introduced his regular campaign comments with an appeal to the black community and touching the race.
“Roshni is so bright in my eyes that I cannot see many people there. But I can only see black people. I cannot see any white. How far I have come, “Trump asked the audience to laugh.
He also said that he knew many black people as his properties were created by black construction workers.
Telling a story how he rejected the cost of re -preparing the Air Force, Trump criticized his predecessor, former President Barack Obama, who was the first black man to be selected to the White House.
“I want to tell you, the black president, but I got $ 1.7 billion less,” said Trump. “Will you have a black president or white president who got $ 1.7 billion from the price?”
As the mob made happy, he said, “I think they want a white man.”
Republicans face a difficult battle in connecting black voters, who are highly supporters of the Democratic Party. And while the black voter enthusiasm for Biden has cooled down last year, only 25% of black Americans said they had Trump’s favorable approach in the December AP-NORC pole.
Democrats insulted the speech as racist and black voters. Sarfina Chitti, a spokesperson of the Democratic National Committee, noted the presence of Trump at a sneaker conference earlier this month, where he never surrendered $ 399 “never surrendered high-tops.”
“This may come in the form of news for Trump, but pushing tired trops, Wanabe Jordan, and Magshot T-shirts, not going to win over black voters, who were suffering through record high unemployment and used to skyrocket the rates without stopping,” Chitika said. “Trump is showing black voters what he thinks of – and his thoughts are corn and racist to win him.”
And Haley, speaking on Saturday morning at Kiava Island of South Carolina, called his speech “disgusting”.
“This happens when he moves away from the teleprompter,” he said. “This is the chaos that comes with Donald Trump.”
Black voters, who spoke further with the Associated Press further of Gala, expressed doubts that Republicans, and Trump, especially, could persuade them to switch to parties.
“There is so much controversy,” said Eboni Mcbeth, a resident and transport activist from Colombia. “I will go to Biden just because Trump has his own agenda.”
Isaac Williams Senior, a retired cook from Colombia and a lifelong Democrat said they dislike both sides, but found Trump for “the dacoit tendency”. He is only out for himself. ,
Many conservatives said in an interview that the Democratic Party’s appeal for black voters was based on “emotional politics” by provoking racism.
“To win more and more of the African American community for the Republican Party, we have to invest a lot of time and more money and really to know our platform, because the truth of the matter is very much among them, they agree with our platform, but they do not associate with the Republican Party,” said a former Republican State Cainter in Samuel River Junior, South Carolina.
Rivers, who are black, argued that black voters look at the Republican in a negative manner in a negative way that are no longer present. “
Trump has a long history of preventing racial stress. From his early days as New York’s real estate developer, Trump has faced allegations of racist trade practices. In 1989, he took out a full-pion newspaper advertisements, calling the state of New York to restore the death sentence, as five black and Latin teenagers were designed to test for a white woman beating and rape in Central Park. Five people were eventually excluded in 2002 after being admitted to crime in 2002 and it was determined that their confession was forced.
He spent years in lying that Obama was ineligible to hold the office. When he was President, Trump attained “relaxed countries” in Africa and said that four Congress-colored Congresswoman should return to “broken and crime-enacted” countries, which they came, ignoring the fact that all women are American citizens and three were born in America.
