Donald Trump’s appeal to black voters sounds familiar in Gary, Indiana, and not in a good way.
Mike Pence is defending Donald Trump against new criticism of how the Republican presidential hopeful used his charitable foundation.
Mr. Trump brought out the star power as he broke past Democrat nominee Hillary Clinton in several recent polls in the Buckeye State, where Mr. Trump has unusually strong support in Democratic strongholds such as Toledo.
Trump, who later Wednesday in Cleveland will partake in a Sean Hannity-hosted Fox News town hall focusing on on “African-American concerns”, told the crowd he invited King to travel with him.

Mr King was convicted of manslaughter after he stomped a male employee to death in 1966. He served four years in prison and was pardoned by the governor of OH in 1983 after his release. Infamous boxing promoter Don King had the dubious honor of introducing the Republican candidate and, in the process, “accidentally” let slip a racial slur. Throughout his career, the OH native represented numerous celebrity boxers, including Evander Holyfield and Mike Tyson. I would use the N word.
