Trump cuts short Flint visit after told to stop ... I invited you hear to thank us for what we've done in Flint, not give a political speech," Rev. Faith Green

Rev Green is an African American woman. Does this raise his numbers with the African American communities?

Try watching or reading some site less biased?

He tried to turn a visit to Flint into a political HRC hatefest and he was stopped up short.

His screw up is evident rather you admit it or not.

BTW, sources are important when stating facts to verify credibility.

JW if you don`t like my nydaily source, there are many out there to corroborate his blunder in a CHURCH.

Democrats have destroyed their city...and the state of Michigan.

Now why do I have the feeling that if Hillary The Corrupt or Reverrrrend Al was in that church ripping Trump or a republican administration, no one would have heard a peep out of that pastor?

As Mr. Trump began addressing outsourcing and jobs, and the subsequent impact on Flint workers, pastor Faith Green Timmons interrupted and stated: “We invited you here to thank us, not to give a political speech“.

Not flustered, Mr. Trump calmly said thank you and concluded his remarks talking about how the damage to the Flint water system can be remedied and corrected.

The media immediately began to frame the interruption as “Trump being scolded“. However, what the media did not disclose was the interruption itself was a pre-planned set up by Pastor Timmons.

Pastor Faith Timmons announced her intention to teach Donald Trump a lesson on a facebook post earlier in the day. A post she promptly deleted after the event, but not before it was captured and screen grabbed.

The entire event by the church and Pastor Timmons was a set-up.

Candidate Donald Trump mentioned this morning during an interview on Fox and Friends that it seemed Pastor Faith Timmons was nervous in anticipation of her intentional disruption.

“She was so nervous,” Trump said this morning on “Fox and Friends.” “She was a nervous mess, and so I figured something — I figured something was up, really,” (link)

Donald Trump’s intuition was 100% correct.

Also, it appears, based on the timing of the incident in comparison to the rapid broadcast of media talking points about the event, some of the people in the media were also anticipating the ambush.

Today, CNN (The Clinton News Network) attempts to continue the narrative and begins saying “Trump goes after Flint Pastor“… see how that works?

In this case, Rev. green made it clear it was a prearranged tour not a stump speach and he meekly backed down because he knew he screwed up.

Speaking to a crowd of about 70 people invited to hear the New York businessman inside Bethel United Methodist Church, Trump attempted to tie Flint’s long economic decline to trade deals supported by Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and her husband, former President Bill Clinton.“Hillary failed with the economy just like she has failed on foreign policy — everything she touched didn’t work out. Nothing,” Trump said.

So, if your odd news without the screen shot or copy of FB post is remotely valid, Trump walked right into it with both feet in his mouth.

Churches are supposed to be all about "truth".

Democrats have destroyed their city...and the state of Michigan.

Now why do I have the feeling that if Hillary The Corrupt or Reverrrrend Al was in that church ripping Trump or a republican administration, no one would have heard a peep out of that pastor?

On a different matter, if Trump gets 15-20% of the black vote, it's curtains for Hillary The Corrupt. Right now, Trump is making the case for why black and Hispanic Americans should vote for him...and his numbers are coming up.

The Flint water crisis happened on Republican Governor Rick Snyder's watch, the Governor since 2011. He was also responsible for appointing the people that were in charge of the Department of Environmental Quality. Governor Snyder was aware of the high lead levels since 2014, shortly after Flint changed their water source from Lake Huron to the Flint River, but he ignored the issue for the sake of saving money. Nice try, pinning the blame solely on Democrats. I'm sure your "news" sources tell you otherwise, but these are proven facts.

Many people in Flint were not happy about Trump's visit because they felt that it was nothing more than a photo op, since Trump has not shown any concern about Flint's water until now. Less than two months till the election and he's suddenly so concerned about Flint? Hillary and Bernie both visited Flint several times, and drew attention to the issue for over a year.

Trump is such a lying phoney! He has to bash the Pastor because his fragile ego was bruised. I watched that speech live yesterday and he was being heckled by the crowd. The Pastor was trying to calm the crowd out of respect for Trump. When it started to get out of hand she asked Trump to focus on the work the church had done in providing clean drinking water, and not make the visit about a political speech. Trump is so pathetic and thin skinned that he has to insult the Pastor because he felt slighted.

Also, even according to Fox News the Pastor said she hoped to "educate" Trump on the Flint water crisis, not "teach him a lesson". There's a huge difference in this context.

He was caught completely off guard. He ended his speech shortly after because his sole purpose of going there to be seen looking like he cares, and then bash Hillary about how everything wrong is her fault and it wouldn't have happened on his watch. He didn't know what else to say once she asked him to focus on the work the church had done in response to the water crisis.

How is insulting the woman and insinuating that she had some agenda against him handling it well?
