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.
Fair, but I frankly find your original assertions rather thin given this evidence (which would likely have come up in a quick google search)
It makes it easy to believe that your goal is a Trump presidency, not fair criticism of Dems or Biden, regardless of whether this specific post was hidden from you. I doubt they did any deep sleuthing to come up with those photos and articles.

I use duckduckgo rather than Google.
You can try for yourself and see what happens when you search “Biden Detroit” it’s just from when he drove that EV Vette.
Now, had I narrowed the search down to only results from 2024, I probably would have seen that.
But I didn’t. I’m killing time when I have a free minute here and there. I assumed that it would put a recent visit on the top.
It could very well be that I’ve blocked the few that are on Lemmy, but I can’t remember the last time I saw a pro-trump comment on here.
Like, there was a conservative sub on another instance, but when a mod told me that accusing someone of racism was racist, I reported their comment for racism.
Because logically, accusing someone of racism for accusing someone of racism is still racism by their own rules.
I got a 3 day ban from my own instance for that somehow. Which seemed a little excessive for trying to prove a point. So obviously I blocked that community and don’t see it anymore.
But anyways, I think with the lack of actual trump supporters on Lemmy, people go looking for an argument. So when I talk about stuff like:
If I’m wrong and Biden has ever done _____ people want to turn it into some kind of “slam”.
There’s just not enough trumpets for people to argue with here.
People are just angry and want someone to take it out on.
In all seriousness, were these not your words?
That whole blah blah blah George Clooney thing is damn near a quote of my maga brother in law, but setting that aside, I don’t really think that is the same tone as your madlib.
Edit: Quoted the wrong madlib.
Edit2: I’ve gone way deeper than I intended in this discussion. I think we get where each other stands, and that’s good enough!
People replying to you aren’t being petty, you carry yourself in a very aggressive way and I don’t think you realize it.
You made up a narrative without any evidence to back it up, people corrected you with references, but you ignore them because you’ve blocked any view that causes your blood pressure to rise.
People are responding to you like this because you present yourself absurdly and then defend it absurdly.
One of the few posters I honestly think is a troll, I’m just not sure if you realize it or not.
