During a Friday campaign rally in Redding, California, presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump illustrated his "tremendous" support from black voters by pointing to a black man in the crowd, exclaiming, "Look at my African-American over here!" The real-estate mogul used the unnamed black male to relay a story about how the media allegedly mistook his black supporter "cold-clocking" a protester in a Ku Klux Klan-like hood to be a Trump anti-protester. "We had a case where we had an African-American guy who is a fan of mine, great fan, great guy," he said before pointing. "Look at my African-American over here. Are you the greatest?"

[Mechazawa]

I love Hispanics!

 

[Dishwalla]

Wow he didn't say "look at my nigga over here!"? Crazy.

 

[Alpha Centauri]

He's always been a friend to the blacks.

 

[Nokagi]

Well the blacks do love him.

 

[Stinkles]

Are you the greatest?

 

[Otnopolit]

When will this surreal nightmare end?

 

[iavi]

"Tremendous support" lol

Watching this ship fall apart at the seams as it floats into the GE has been the best.

 

[Grexeno]

PIVOT

 

[Onemic]

He loves the blacks!

When will this surreal nightmare end?

~Five months, five days.

 

[The Silver]

[DrBo42]

Look at my African-American? How does this guy get away with this over and over?

[Loudninja]

You guys really feed into Trump don't you

 

[Fusebox]

"I said, I said, stand up boy, let everyone take a good look at ya"

 

[Inuhanyou]

Not any better than using the victims of the cop on black shootings for photo ops like Hillary did, then dropping them when it was convenient.

These people are nothing but trash

 

[giga]

"I said, I said, stand up boy, let everyone take a good look at ya"

im dying

 

[Hale-XF11]

He belongs to Trump apparently.

 

[Slayven]

He wish he could buy 10 more like him, he could when America was great

 

[Alpha Centauri]

Look at my African-American? How does this guy get away with this over and over?

He reminds his demographic of a simpler time. When Susie grew up to be a housewife and everyone knew their place.

 

[sphagnum]

"My", eh?

 

[oti]

?.?

 

[Sianos]

He loves the blacks!

Just one, apparently.

 

[massoluk]

The Onion article, right?

 

[mmazurkiewicz]

let him talk. the more he talks, the worse he looks.

 

[Aylinato]

He wish he could buy 10 more like him, he could when America was great

When I read the statement I immediately thought of trump as auctioning him off like a slave.

 

[Moofers]

"I said, I said, stand up boy, let everyone take a good look at ya"

LOL

Oh shit, that's awesome.

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

From "the blacks" to "MY African-American". You can't stop the pivot.

 

[FelixOrion]

Are you the greatest?

Don't mind me, just gonna merge some news stories:

 

[CatalogDave]

You guys really feed into Trump don't you

what's the alternative?

 

[Hagi]

What's up my African American?

This guy.

 

[Kathian]

Meh. 'My' can mean 'my friend' which is the context here. But keep on firing at the wrong targets. Clinton showed what needs to be done - take him front and centre - not this pathetic skirmishing 'oh no' nonsense.

 

[Otnopolit]

~Five months, five days.

I will count down the days, it stopped being fun 3 months ago.

Also holy shit hahaha you guys are cutting deep. Come to mention it, GAF commentary makes it at least tolerable.

 

[botty]

What's more problematic is...

"And he's sitting there behaving"


To me, at least.

 

[DrBo42]

let him talk. the more he talks, the worse he looks.

I thought that would be true but it really doesn't seem to be the case. The lowest common denominator just keeps eating it up.

 

[Mr. Giggles]

do the muslims also love Trump?

We do.

He knows us, He's got the best Muslims already working for him... Gonna help him figure out what's going on as well as bring down ISIS

 

[Slayven]

You can't be serious

 

[User1608]

Probably one of the good ones in Trump's eyes.

 

[echoshifting]

I missed that on my first read

Fucking awful and inexcusable

*Raises left eyebrow*

 

[Alienous]

Was that a "my nigga" joke?

EDIT:
Doesn't sound like it.

 

[Alpha Centauri]

"My friend, the African-American" isn't that much better.

 

[timetokill]

Look at my African-American? How does this guy get away with this over and over?

"I hear the kids saying 'My Nigga' all the time. Is that cool? I hear that's cool."
"Uh, Mr. Trump, I really think you should avoid saying that."
"Nah, the kids are all saying it, I hear it all the time, on the rap stations, you know, nigga this, nigga that. It's fabulous."
"Please, Mr. Trump. Say African-American."
"Are you sure? Because I want people to know how much the blacks love me."
"Yes. Please, for the love of god, say African-American."
"All right, all right, calm down. I'll say African-American."

 

[Modest Mauser]

"And he's sitting there behaving"


To me, at least.

That's definitely much worse.

 

[Serick]

He sounds like a slave owner. How can he talk like that and no one picks up on it?

Look at my African American! And he's sitting there behaving!
