Trump’s Florida black outreach head: ‘Piss-poor job of courting the black vote’
Sean P. Jackson says the Trump campaign has “dropped the ball” on black outreach.
Click here for reuse options!…he says Karen Giorno, Trump’s Florida campaign manager, has disregarded his advice and all but frozen him out of Trump’s efforts to win the Sunshine State.
“Mr. Trump really does have a sincere, passionate interest in black outreach, but his campaign staff has dropped the ball,” Jackson tells New Times. “That all starts with Karen Giorno. She has repeatedly failed at embracing blacks across the state.”
…Jackson’s critiques come after news broke that Giorno refused to let Jackson stay backstage at a recent Florida rally and then, according to Jackson, told him flat-out that Trump didn’t need black votes.
“The crazy part about it is that the Secret Service had already cleared me to be back there, and yet she made a scene and claimed that she didn’t know who I was,” Jackson says.

She’s right. He can lose the election easily enough without the black vote.

Well she seems to be perfect for the rump team, she has similar beliefs as those who work for breitbart.

Trump’s ‘sincere, passionate outreach’ to black voters has largely consisted of speaking to his virtually all-white constituency and making blanket, stereotypical remarks about the socio-economic and educational status of the entire African American demographic community.

Sean Jackson should just leave, does he not see what Trump’s campaign is doing towards Blacks? They don’t even respect his input!
