What’s GOP candidate Donald Trump to do when polling data show weakness among both the educated and non-educated White electorate?
Why, look deep into his soul and start looking for “extra” votes in new places like Black churches, where he’ll call for a new civil rights agenda, of course.
There was no talk of walls or mass deportations from Trump at Detroit’s Great Faith Ministries International church on Saturday. But it was a glimpse of what we better get used to seeing: The Donald’s new Black pitch.
“I believe we need a civil rights agenda for our time,” Trump told the church goers. “One that insures the rights to a great education, so important, and the right to live in safety and in peace, and to have a really, really great job, a good paying job, and one you love to go to every morning. And that can happen.”
It wasn’t exactly the second coming of “I have a dream… .”
More like this odd 2016 campaign’s version of “If the mountain won’t come to Mohammad, Mohammad will go to the mountain.”
Only with Trump, no one named Mohammad is actually involved.
