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.

    Or that when Trump fans hear that he’s coming to town… they’re quick to flock to see him. Hey at least you’re not claiming, “cultural appropriation”. Right?

      In a way, he is. He’s now claiming that black people will relate to him now as he is a fellow victim of systemic judicial persecution.
