‘Look at My African-American Over Here,’ Donald Trump Says at Rally

REDDING, Calif. — In a speech in which he promoted the backing of Chinese-Americans in Los Angeles and called protesters at a rally in San Jose “thugs,” Donald J. Trump on Friday sought to project support from African-Americans for his campaign on a single man in the audience.

Mr. Trump, at a rally here, began speaking about a previous rally in Arizona in which a black supporter was arrested after punching a protester.

“We had a case where we had an African-American guy who is a fan of mine,” Mr. Trump said of an event in Arizona in March. “In fact I want to find out what’s going on with him.”

As his voice trailed off, Mr. Trump noticed a man in the crowd.

“Oh look at my African-American over here,” Mr. Trump said. “Are you the greatest? Do you know what I’m talking about?”

Mr. Trump then returned to speaking about the Arizona episode.

Hahahahaha! Reminds me of someone I know who was in the hospital for a few days. I would classify her as a racist, but she objected to my observation by telling me, "I'm not a racist. One of the nurses that checks on me is black."

Amazing, isn't?
He just can't keep it under wraps.
