Former President Trump participated in a roundtable discussion at 180 Church in Detroit, reaching out to Black voters. Pastor Lorenzo Sewell expressed gratitude for Trump’s visit, noting that previous presidents like Obama and Biden had not directly engaged with their communities.
Sewell praised Trump for his Platinum Plan, which proposed $500 billion for Black businesses and churches, highlighting that no recent president had offered a comparable initiative. This sentiment resonated with the audience, who appreciated Trump’s direct approach.
