Perhaps he's planning on starting a riot and counting on his SS detail to get him out alive.

Considering that he could blow hell wide open, I wouldn't be surprised if melted just by walking into church.

There are a handful of black pastors that support Trump and would welcome him with open arms if he wanted to address their congregation.

Plus, one of the last places you'd ever see a riot start is a black church. Most people worship respectfully.

I expect him to at least be welcomed and listened to respectfully.  Whether he'll speak to them as respectfully in return remains to be seen.

Not sure what your point is regarding Black clerics and the community, but I expect that he will get listened to respectfully and maybe there will be so murmurs in the background with a few individuals speaking their minds, but really this sounds like a bit of a streo-type (Assuming extreme sarcasm on your part) that somehow despite the extreme lack of popularity for Trump with African-Americans that somehow that just because he is speaking to a heavily Black audience that there will be any physical issues regarding the Republican candidate.

I could potentially see some potential Anti-Trump protests in Detroit, but still not sure where the hell you are going with this....  Confused???

This is an extremely racist statement.

If by handful you mean you can count them on your fingers.

There's probably a few more than that. But yes, a minority to say the least.

My comment was not meant to say that blacks are more violent than others or that blacks couldn't support him ever or that violence would occur inside the church. I was just thinking about when he tried to speak at UIC in Chicago and how he went into an environment that was not exactly home to average trump supporters and that it was so hostile that they called off the event. I'm sorry, but even if trump wins Michigan he's not going to win Detroit. Detroit is just as able to be as hostile to trump as Chicago was. This is what I'm talking about. I'm sorry if it was taken otherwise.

I think you were a bit over-interpreted. I got what you meant.

As to the topic, I'll wait and see what the speech is. I don't see him finding a way to be effective at all, and without the support of his crazed fans whooping and cheering, I wonder if he'll keep course or it'll get awkward (either in clearly reading a script or in his off-topic ramblings).

Why? There are doubtless plenty of people from all races, creeds, and walks of life who feel a certain impulse to murder the feces-spitting clown; when face to face with TrumpMiller's unique brand of hateful idiocy anyone might very well have trouble controlling their own worse impulses.
