Pastor Trump Claimed Endorsed Him, Picks Hillary

Few moments have been more awkward for Donald Trump’s presidential campaign than the day he announced 100 black pastors would travel to New York City to endorse him, only for several of those pastors to say they’d never met Trump, would not meet with him, and never would endorse him.

On Saturday, one of the Trump abstainers, Bishop Corletta Vaughn, did endorse for president, but this time for Hillary Clinton.
“Trump did not speak to what our community’s issues are. I’m not interested in the border. I’m not interested in in immigration,” Bishop Vaughn told the Daily Beast in an interview Saturday. “I don’t hear it from Bernie Sanders, who talks about Wall Street and banks. I heard it from Secretary Clinton.”

Trump typical supporters will of course not expose themselves to sources that report it. If they do hear about it anyway, they'll just believe it's Trump's opponents "lying as usual." But, many others will take note.
