Kadia Goba, one of the moderators of Donald Trump s Q&A at the National Association of Black Journalists convention in Chicago on Wednesday, said one moment in particular involving the former president left her stunned.
And it wasnt Trumps racist comments about Vice President Kamala Harris .
It was, said Goba, when Trump responded to the NABJ panels very first question about why Black voters should trust him, given his long history of racist comments, by saying hed never been asked a question in such a horrible manner.
Trump slammed ABC News Rachel Scott the moderator who posed the question and called her network fake news and terrible.
CNN s Erin Burnett asked Goba, a political reporter for Semafor, if shed been surprised by Trumps response.
Yeah, I was shocked, Goba replied.
I didnt anticipate that because I figured if the former president made the effort to come to Chicago in front of a bunch of journalists, Black journalists, he would anticipate certain questions, she continued.
So, I was excited to do the interview and then immediately kind of sank in my seat once he started essentially bashing the panel, she added.
