What recent Trump video is being called a fake black‑voter ad?
Sometimes it just feels like whack-a-mole with all of the stunts and scams that Donald Trump tries to pull, and then the corporate media is a willing accomplice in laundering those scams and stunts. Well, that may have worked in 2016 or 2020, but in 2024, it's a different ball game, folks. The Midas Touch Network is here. We are a People-powered network. We don't have outside investors. And so what we do is we call this crap out. The latest stunt by Donald Trump, which was laundered through NBC News, was this viral, so-called viral black voter video, which uh was just some astroturfed MAGA operative scheme. All of the people who were in this video. Work for the Trump campaign, or our political operatives, or our kind of high-profile MAGA people.
It's presented like there are these just undecided black women voters who became big Trump fans out of nowhere. But we've been calling this stuff out the same way when Donald Trump went to the black church in Detroit. He just basically rented out a church that was embroiled in litigation. He filled it up with white MAGA supporters who wore hats. They were like cursing in the church, like just disgracing the whole church experience, whether you're religious or not. It's like, come on, folks. Donald Trump also, you know, he would like show up in Chick-fil-A's, and then like a black woman would hug him. And then the media would be like, look. The black women love Donald Trump because a black woman hugged him.
And then we would point out, no, that's Michaela Montgomery. She follows Donald Trump around from event to event and she hugs him. She's a MAGA operative. She works for the Republican Party. She interned for the Republican Party. She's at all of the events. It's not like a random black woman giving him a hug, but the media tries and tries and tries. But guess what, media? Platform is bigger than you, it's bigger than yours now. So here's our story that's actually going viral because people care about the facts and people don't like being scammed and lied to. So shame on the Trump campaign, but shame on you, NBC, for your horrible reporting on this one as well.
How did NBC News help the Trump campaign launder this video?
You've done some decent reporting this election cycle, but some really bad reporting, and you need to have a reckoning after this election. Shame on you. Here's what we've learned, here's our reporting, this is how you do it, NBC. Can I break it down for you, please? The Trump campaign released a video in late August aimed at black women purporting to show regular black voters, many of whom were unnamed, huh? Rejecting Kamala Harris. As it turns out, Midas Touch was able to identify 15 out of the 16 individuals that appear in the video, and they are all mega operatives or influencers. A key detail Trump failed to disclose, and NBC did as well. Not only did Trump fail to disclose the political nature of the people speaking in his Black Voters video, he was able to get NBC News to cover it unchecked as an
Exclusive, further spreading the disinformation that is MAGA propaganda. Here was the NBC article. Trump campaign ramps up efforts to win over black women with new video. The former president is working to cut into Kamala Harris's support. Uh that's a key part of her coalition. It's like NBC, why are you even writing this stupid story to begin with? Oh, Donald Trump told you to do it. Okay, you want to make this It's a horse race? Okay. Anyway, here we go. In the article, NBC News shared a quote from Janaya Thomas, Trump's director of black media, claiming Trump's message was resonating with black voters. NBC News also reported the Trump campaign's claim, implying the video was full of recent converts to Trumpism.
Quote The women featured in the video, according to the Trump campaign, include former Democratic and independent voters who switched over to the Republican. Republican Party in support of Trump, several of whom reside in battleground states such as Arizona, Georgia, and Michigan. Great work, NBC, for doing the lies of the Trump campaign. And they laundered it through you.
