'Absolute dumpster fire': Trump’s interview with Black journalists shocks Fox News pundit

Fox News contributor Jessica Tarlov accused Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump of turning a conversation with Black journalists into a "dumpster fire."

At the National Association of Black Journalists conference on Wednesday, Trump began by calling ABC News host Rachel Scott's questions "horrible" and "nasty."

Tarlov reacted to the Fox panel with shock.

"My reaction is that it was a complete, absolute dumpster fire for the former president," she told host Martha MacCallum. "I don't feel the need to give him any credit for showing up there because he came with a terrible attitude."

"He hit all of his regular hits, lying about his record for Black Americans," she continued. "The comparison saying he's done the most for the Black community since Abraham Lincoln is obviously ridiculous.

"I thought that he was rude and offensive to the questioners."

Tarlov noted that Trump had argued with Scott over whether presumed Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris was a "DEI hire."

"And then his response, that she used to be Indian and is now somehow Black, was offensive no matter the color of your skin," the Fox News contributor said.

MacCallum quickly interrupted to defend Trump.

"She has an Indian mother and a Jamaican father," MacCallum said of Harris.

"Right, she's Black!" Tarlov exclaimed.

"But she has an Indian mother and a Black father," MacCallum repeated. "So those are two different backgrounds."
