The National Association of Black Journalists has a long history of inviting presidential candidates to speak, ABC News’ Rachel Scott reminded those present on Wednesday to witness Donald Trump wreak havoc at its annual conference in Chicago. Former Presidents George W. Bush, Barack Obama and Bill Clinton have attended past conventions, she said, and the organization is also in talks to host an event with Trump’s opponent Vice President Kamala Harris in September.
“As journalists, we use opportunities like these both to inform our reporting, but also to help voters understand the choices that they face in a consequential and historic election year,” Scott explained. All that sounds reasonable, if this were a normal election and Trump was a normal candidate.
