Summary

In this episode of The ReidOut, we discuss how Donald Trump's recent attempt at Black outreach went awry, as he spewed a litany of stereotypes, including that Black people like him because he has a mugshot and is being discriminated against by the legal system. Also in this episode--Trump is appealing his nine-figure civil fraud judgment, which grows by more than $100,000 every day, as prosecutors in another case ask a judge to slap a gag order on the former president. Plus, Michigan voters will go to the polls in tomorrow's primary where President Biden faces a potentially significant protest vote over his support for Israel's war in Gaza.
