That context doesn’t change the meaning even slightly. If anything it makes it worse. He’s talking about an issue which is not related to race in any way, but he injects race into it. It shows exactly how he sees every aspect of the world.
We’re still not seeing the full context. I assume this was part of a wider conversation about the role of race in politics.
He’s making the point that a president’s actions matter more to voters (specifically black voters in this case) than a president’s race, which isn’t a bad point. (And I guess that’s what the audience is cheering for.)
I’m not a fan of Trump, but I’m also not a fan of taking things out of context.
That’s really just the cherry on the shit sundae, unnecessarily bringing race into the conversation just for the sake of racism, and you’re being racist against the crowd you’re speaking to. I mean, I’m sure there’s plenty of self-haters amongst that group who see themselves as “one of the good ones” and don’t have a problem with it, but still.

I agreethat the full clip is just as damning. Which is why editing it to be misleading is unnecessary and counterproductive
It’s not really misleading. It’s the size of clip that fits.
I mean, he was speaking at the Black Conservative Federation. It’s sorta relevant just given the venue.
