While standing in front of a sea of primarily white supporters, Donald Trump pledged that he will score 95 percent of the African-American vote after serving four years in the White House.

It didn’t take long before Twitter to explode with mockery, pointing out the hypocrisy of his words at a suburban rally in a primarily white community:
