Trump Addresses Empty Church As African-American Photo-Op Backfires In Detroit
Donald Trump’s appearance at an African-American church in Detroit went wrong, as the congregation rejected Trump by not showing up to hear him speak.
Here was the scene as Trump entered the church:
The place was nearly empty. Donald Trump did give a speech to the few members of the congregation that were there and it was as condescending and offensive as one would imagine:
The whole appearance was about the photo-op of Trump appearing in an African-American church. Donald Trump is not sincerely trying to get the votes of African-Americans. The Republican nominee is trying to convince white suburban voters that he is not a racist.
Trump’s publicity stunt backfired because the church congregation in large part refused to be used as political props. Donald Trump went to an African-American church, said some words that he didn’t write, and then posed for pictures.
What the Trump campaign never planned for was the rejection of their candidate by the congregation.

BREAKING: Trump Loses Lawsuit For Ripping Off Small Business, His Punishment Will Make You Smile
It turns out that Donald Trump lost big in a Florida court while he was busy winning the Republican Party nomination at the Republican National Convention last week.
According to the Miami Herald, Circuit Court Judge Jorge Cueto ruled in favor of a local paint store in a case regarding Trump’s unpaid bills. The case, heard in a Miami-Dade County courtroom, resulted in an order for the Trump’s National Doral Miami golf resort to pay the small family business almost $300,000 in attorney’s fees.
Apparently, Trump tried to rip off the small business, The Paint Spot, in regards to the final payment on a contract sum of $200,000. The final payment was for $34,863 for paint used to renovate a home located on Trump’s “Blue Monster” golf course in 2014.
Trump’s National, the company named in the lawsuit, has insisted that it has “paid enough” for the paint sold, regardless of the amount on the contract. The Paint Spot then exercised their rights by placing a lien on the resort property. This resulted in Judge Cueto ordering the foreclosure and sale of the resort to satisfy the lien.
Circuit Court Judge Jorge Cueto ruled in favor of a local paint store.... ..resulted in an order for the Trump’s National Doral Miami golf resort to pay the small family business almost $300,000 in attorney’s fees.
Oh-oh, better watch out. Trump's going to break out in a rage against those lousy Hispanic judges who are prejudiced against him again.
I didn't grin for longer since I'm still very worried re the election.

@giujohn,
Petty cash?!!! No man, not at all, if the judged ordered the complex to be auction to pay the fee..... He had no petty cash nor cash at all available any time soon and he had to take that meassure to assure the payment.....
Hes all fucked up in the head man.... No business man risks 100.000 dollars as the result of trying to defraud a tiny local business 165000 $ having signed a valid contract that will sentence you in a minute..... No business man loses a valuable property, losing all the money invested on it and expected benefits and 300.000 $ because they thought two latin insignificant people were not worth to be paid as agreed previously and thought they would save 160000 $? So they have a loss of 300000 and a big property to finally paid what they were supposed to do on the first place? That is the brilliant mind that will make america richer and greater again?
If it's so unimportant why did Trump try to welsh on the deal in the first place? There's a lot of small businesses owed money by Trump, and if he loses this election expect a load of class suits with sympathetic judges.
That's kind of the point, isn't it? It's nothing to Trump, but it can be bankruptcy for the small- businessperson if Trump doesn't pay him or her, which, as it turns out, he often refuses to do after the service is rendered because "he's paid enough", no matter what the contract obligated him to pay. He's done it often. He has the deep pockets to pay his lawyers and the people he owes money to usually don't have his resources, so they look at his propensity to pay lawyers rather than pay up what he owes, think what it will cost them for lawyers to get what he owes them, and let him pay them pennies on the dollar, or just eat it as a loss. Which has led to benkruptcies among the people he stiffed. To Trump it's just a cheap object lesson for his creditors--spend a few bucks, comparatively speaking on lawyers so no one will think of suing you to get what you owe them, because it'll cost more than they'll get if thy win---look at this case. If I remember the details, the debt to them was 30K, and lawyer's fees were 270K to get it. It's really Crooked Donald, not Crooked Hillary.
Once again that's business if you can't swim with the sharks don't get in the pool... I worry more about a politician like Hillary who believes she's Above the Law, thumbs her nose at the Constitution and does whatever she wants to with impunity...like a king

That would be Queen. In any case, your entire post is against the facts as we know them. No need to reply.
