We love you: Trump honors Black History Month by having black people shower him with praise
Looking around the table at his black supporters, Trump congratulated himself for his performance in the election.
If you remember, I wasnt going to do well with the African-American community, he said. And after they heard me speaking and talking about the inner city and lots of other things. We ended up getting I wont go into details but we ended up getting substantially more than other candidates who had run in the past years.
Trump then allowed his supporters an opportunity to praise him.
We love the Lord, we love our new president, and were praying for our new president, a pastor from Ohio told Trump. Our president gives us his ear, to listen to the community, to listen. And people like us are here to constantly put that message out into the community. And we love you for that.
So much of the media is opposition party, Trump complained. Knowingly saying incorrect things. Its a very sad situation. But we seem to be doing well. You know, its almost like, in the meantime we won. So maybe they dont have the influence they think. They really have to straighten out their act. Theyre very dishonest people.

to serve as the backdrop for Trump's media circus.
