Trump Reacts to Police Shootings, Don King Uses N-word


CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, Ohio — Boxing promoter Don King used a racial slur while introducing Donald Trump here Wednesday during an African-American outreach event in which the Republican nominee reacted to recent police shootings.

King, who was introduced by vice presidential nominee Mike Pence, regaled the seated crowd of clergy and supporters here at New Spirit Revival Center with a story he once told to Michael Jackson.

"I told Michael Jackson, I said, 'If you're poor, you're a poor negro,' I would use the N-word," King warned, only to fulfill the prophecy moments later.

"If you are a dancing and sliding and gliding [N-word], I meant negro, you're a dancing and sliding and gliding negro. So dare not alienate because you cannot assimilate. So you know you're going to be a negro till you die," King said.
