What types of questions was he expecting from black journalists?
"Would you rather be electrocuted by a boat or eaten by a shark?"

[tomgreenfor]

Back when America was greater, a candidate who did this would no longer be a candidate.

[edmcgeman]

Donald Trump never answers any question in any sensible and intelligible way.

Racist Grampa at Thanksgiving when the food is late.

[blackbird]

These journalists REFUSED to ask him about Windmills and Low Toilet Water Pressure!! How DARE they!!😫

[billselznick]

Any other candidate in history, this would be their farewell appearance.

[monicataylor]

Rev is right, trump acted that way for his racist base 💯
Vote for Harris, not that menace
Not Going Back!!!
Harris 2024 💙💙💙

He brought out his Rally best, but this was the wrong audience for that. Nobody in that audience is afraid of Brown people "taking their jobs." Everyone there is more educated than trump.

[shaker]

Didn't anybody catch how Trump's team would not let any Project 2025 questions be asked by the journalists, and the interview was ended early?

[phmycrv]

And the INSULTED lady still managed to be professional with a HANDSHAKE at the end

The journalist in blue, she’s a hero calling Trump out. I’m so impressed with her 👍

[emanuelmota]

Claire McCaskill may be exactly right -- Trump might just NEED to be the center of attention, so he does THIS. Trump IS a very sick individual.

[nlvnttv]

I was so proud of the young black journalists for asking him the hard questions. THANK YOU!

[peterdonnellan]

How can ANY Black person ever vote for him?

[deborahboggs]

They hit him square in the face with his LIES and he doesnt know how to deal with it but attack !

[reglaquintero]

If anyone doubted what Maga really stood for. Now you know

[SassySimian]

Claire McCaskill: _"I can't imagine that he is so dumb that he'd think he'd add any Black votes by talking about Black jobs and saying what he said about the Vice President..."_ Oh, you better imagine it and believe it! _"...or is he just that sick?!"_ Nailed it!

[nikkikilgore]

What he said about his great nephew should die is unforgettable he is a sorry excuse for a human

[daisydy]

I can't wait for SNL's version of this interview

[marcelaortuzar]

He confused Kamala Harris with Nick Hailey. I am 78 years old, so I understand his mistake, but I am not running for president. Way too old.
