Former President Donald Trump defended himself in a recent interview against those who think hes racist, saying he cant be because he has so many friends who are Black.

I have so many Black friends that if I were a racist, they wouldnt be friends, they would know better than anybody, and fast, he said in an interview with Semafor published Friday. They would not be with me for two minutes if they thought I was racist and Im not racist!

Several Black male celebrities came to his defense in separate interviews with the news outlet. Those men included heavyweight champion Mike Tyson, retired MLB slugger Darryl Strawberry, boxing promoter Don King, and former NFL star Herschel Walker, who lost a 2022 Senate race in Georgia.
