Trump expecting endorsements from 100 black religious leaders Monday
Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump’s campaign says the businessman will be formally endorsed by 100 leaders from the black religious community Monday, according to CNN.
The announcement will reportedly take place after a meeting between Trump and the community leaders earlier in the day. An event is scheduled for 1 p.m.
{mosads}The campaign has not released the names of the religious leaders who are set to endorse Trump.
The backing of the black community leaders comes after a series of racially charged controversies involving Trump.
The business mogul drew condemnation earlier this week after tweeting a graphic that overstated the number of black-on-white homicides this year.
In addition, Trump caused waves after a physical confrontation between a Black Lives Matter protester and several white attendees at a Saturday campaign rally.
Trump said Sunday of the protester: “Maybe he should have been roughed up because it was absolutely disgusting what he was doing.”
The campaign clarified that it “does not condone” the behavior of the crowd.
