Donald Trump isn’t shy about touting his achievements but there’s one thing he’s taking credit for that has people on social media saying, “wait a minute.”
One of Trump’s black supporters boldly claimed that he has done more for “blacks” than any other president and it seems as though Trump agrees with the sentiment.
While responding to several tweets over the weekend, Trump surely did not miss that one.
“Trump has done more for Blacks than all the other Presidents combined! Are we together?” Trump supporter David Kyalo Musyoka tweeted.
“So true, although Honest Abe wasn’t bad. Thanks you!” Trump replied, referring to Abraham Lincoln, the 16th president of the United States who was responsible for the abolishment of slavery.
Now back in February, retired NFL player Jack Brewer was seen on video calling Trump “the first black president” during a roundtable discussion with other black leaders at the White House.
“I’ve got to say this because it’s Black History Month. Man, you’re the first black president,” Brewer told Trump as the rest of the room cheered before they gathered around Trump and prayed with him.
As expected, people on social media gathered Brewer for his shocking comments but Brewer made it clear he wasn’t backing down.
Brewer responded to the criticism by tweeting out the following: “Being ‘African American’ is determined by your lineage..being ‘Black’ is determined by your willingness to serve and defend BLACK PEOPLE!!”

We also previously reported that Trump’s campaign is targeting the black male vote. You can read about that here.
Regardless of what people believe, this is certainly shaping up to be another interesting presidential election. We’ll keep you posted on the latest.
