Please note these are the same African Americans who show up in his photo-shoots, when needed. You certainly won't find a wide swat of black folk around Trump.

one of them is Tim Scott, who is Republican. There ARE Black Republicans. Hurts to say it, but it's true. They are probably happy to stand behind him.
