A group of black Republicans is springing to the defense of former President Donald Trump after Trump’s contentious appearance before the National Association of Black Journalists this week.
“It appears that the Democrat Political Industrial Complex (DPIC) is working its butt off to stop the exodus of Black voters who are just not buying their crap,” Jimmy Lee Tillman wrote on the website of the Martin Luther King Republicans.
Tillman said that the NABJ event was “[a]n example of this.”
Tillman applauded the NABJ for “not allowing a few triggered journalists to spoil the historic moment of a presidential visit.”
Two days before the event, NABJ convention co-chair Karen Attiah quit the post in protest over Trump’s invitation, according to the New York Daily News.
