This post has nothing whatsoever to do with the church, except that it's something that will be of interest to just about everybody.
The practice of carefully arranging the audience behind a political speaker is common to just about every political group. One of the things I always look for is just what sort of people have been hand-picked to provide the diversity image that the organization wishes to foster.
Last night when Pres. Trump spoke in Phoenix, the diversity question practically leaped off the screen. Who is this guy holding the "Blacks for Trump" sign and wearing the "Trump and Republicans Are Not Racist" t-shirt with the God2.com website reference?
Presumably part of the standard operating procedure is to do a background check on just what sort of characters are being used for the backdrop to the speaker. In this case, they didn't check.
I invite you to check out Gods2.com. If that website is taken down and you want to see what the live site looked like at the time of the speech last night, you can check out a copy of the site that I archived in anticipation that the campaign would figure out that they have a problem here. This is an exact copy of the website that was up last night. Click the ENTER button to enter the site.
UPDATE: 11:40 A.M. The Washington Post is onto this story and provides background on the guy holding the sign.
