Funny thing is he (Trump) received awards from the "Esteemed" Reverend Jessie (sic) for his work with the AA Community among others.
But please link to even one such award. Just one.
I have seen a couple of clips where Jackson said nice things about Trump when introducing him as a speaker, but NEVER any such “award.”

He won a Lifetime Achievement Award from Jesse Jackson's Rainbow Coalition/PUSH.
Perhaps you can provide a link?

1986 Ellis Island Award given to Trump, Rosa Parks and Muhammad Ali;
Probably because this pic was not related in any way to an award for Trump helping Blacks.
Trump was one of 87 people given the Ellis Island Medal of Honor in 1986 along with recipients Ali and Parks. However he was not being honored for his work with Blacks.
Trump was among the first group of Americans to be given the award, which recognized people from a variety of ethnic backgrounds who have made significant contributions to the country .... Trump was honored for his work as a successful developer in New York City and his German heritage ..., not for helping Blacks.
But, yes, Ali and Parks were among the 87 recipients that year, and the three of them did stand near one another in a large group picture ... which Trump supporters uniformly “crop” to remove the other non-Blacks. There are 8 faces in that pic, six of whom are not Black (Joe DiMaggio, Victor Borge, Anita Bryant, Donald Trump, and unnamed Eastern Orthodox priest and a tiny Asian-looking woman in the near background). Yet Trump supporters always show it cropped to just Trump and the two Blacks.
quote:Yes, Jackson thanked Trump for renting some office space to a diversity program. That is not an “award” of the type described above. It is not an “award” at all.
1990 video of the Rev. Jesse Jackson lauding Trump as a friend to minorities and underserved communities. Jackson expressed appreciation for Trump’s support of the Rainbow Push Coalition’s initiative called the Wall Street Project, which aimed to help minority-owned businesses;
Again, I do not contend that Trump is especially racist. But one need not spread lies in order to refute that claim.

TWJ made a claim (with no proof) of another non-existent award for helping Blacks, and he referenced a speech in which Jackson thanked Trump for renting some office space ... NOT giving any sort of award.
3nO, you are brighter than this.

If I am mistaken, I am man-enough to admit it. Are you?

I wonder how many stories exist, written before Trump announced his candidacy, in which he was accused of racism.

quote:Probably not many, though there WAS that kerfuffle about his discriminatory residential renting policies that led to a major lawsuit and to Trump paying a substantial settlement.

Personally, I don’t see racism in the facts underlying that lawsuit, but others did.

You claim you ran one that found something. I suspect that you are lying, as otherwise you would post the link.

Did not find a damned thing, did you?
