Housing Secretary Ben Carson appeared to stray from prepared remarks as he introduced Trump at an event, declaring that the president 'is not a racist'
Housing Secretary Ben Carson appeared to stray from prepared remarks as he introduced Donald Trump on Friday, declaring that the president "is not a racist" and pointing to how he treats the members and service workers at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.
He continued: “When he bought Mar-a-Lago, he was the one who fought for Jews and blacks to be included in the clubs that were trying to exclude them. You know, people say he's a racist, he is not a racist.” Trump redoubled these efforts on Friday, accusing Democrats of treating black voters "badly" and only coming around because "they want your vote."
"And I said, all these bad numbers, what the hell do you have to lose?" Trump said, adding an aside about how he decides whether or not to use the word "hell" depending on his crowd.

Bash: Trump acquittal is a green light to America's enemiesJeremy Bash: 'One of the messages that comes out of the acquittal is that the president feels emboldened.
