Responds to racism charges with fake photo of ‘supporters’
[su_publir_above_post]
Donald Trump tweeted out a photo of black people to show his “support”. Only, the photo as lifted and the photo has nothing to do with Trump.
This morning on Twitter, Trump was back at it, highlighting the support of an African-American family.

You’ll notice the link in this tweet no longer works. That’s because the photo has nothing to do with Trump.
It was not taken at a Trump event. Rather, it was taken at the “The 27th annual Midwest Black Family Reunion” held in Ohio in August 2015. The event featured “music, art, chess, children’s games and other activities.”
Seriously shameful: Trump's retweeted photo of "supporters" was lifted from @WCPO https://t.co/xXH8RZS8WT https://t.co/Vun9QDp9NZ
