Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump will venture to Detroit on Saturday to attend a roundtable discussion at a Black church, the latest in an effort to peel away Black voters from President Joe Biden ahead of November's election.

Trump’s planned visit to a church nestled in the heart of Detroit's west side has received fierce pushback from local Democrats and the Biden campaign who argued Trump did little as president to improve Black communities nationwide.

Trump has denigrated Detroit in the past as "corrupt," but both he and Biden have identified Michigan as a must-win state, and the vote there is expected to be as close or closer than it was four years ago.

He’s an 81-year-old white guy surrounded by black people singing and dancing. I’m thinking frozen might be the best move.

Imagine if he was trying to dance along.

This looks fake as fuck lol. He is stiff, but he ain't that stiff lmao. He'd at least attempt the patented White Man Shuffle

It's real, I promise you. And it actually goes on for way longer. It's very weird. But then Biden is weird.

Still 1,000 times better than Trump, lol.

I'll take weird stiff guy over horrible nazi guy anyday.

Oh no question. Which one of them is weirder around black people is not really what will decide my vote, it will just amuse me.
