Hard to imagine anything much weirder than wanting to present oneself as racist in front of an African-American journalists association. Pretty much guaranteed to get a hostile reception when you do that.

    I still don’t understand why he was speaking there in the first place. I read the press release that he would be there, as well as the statement by a Black author/presenter that because of his presence she would not be - it doesn’t sound like it was planned out much in advance. So does anyone know what NABJ’s purpose was with this interview? (I assume Trump’s was chaos and/or intimidation.)
