Story highlights

• "Look at my African-American over here," Trump said. "Look at him!"
• Trump's remark came as he recalled an incident in March

Redding, California (CNN)Donald Trump sought to tout his support among African-Americans on Friday by pointing out a black man in the crowd and calling him "my African-American."

"Oh, look at my African-American over here. Look at him," Trump said. "Are you the greatest?"

The remark didn't generate a noticeable response from Trump's audience.

Trump campaign spokeswoman Hope Hicks told CNN Trump was "just referring to a supporter in the crowd. There's no ill will intended, obviously." She added Trump was "grateful for this person's support."

Hope Hicks.

Was he not an African American ? Or did he called him a racial slur.

What's the issue ?

A hhhh. That explains it. Like if he said that's my wife over there. By gawd man your a genius

I wish Trump would pick Condit Rice for VP. I have always thought she was brilliant and hot

At least he didn't say, "my brothuh". That would have been bad.

[Janelle2002 3,865]

Glad he acknowledged he only has one black supporter instead of pretending he has millions

How funny would it be if he said, hey what's up my home boy.?

It just supports the case that Trump is unhinged and lacks the rational adult perspective needed for the job. What is he trying to say to his audience?

Yes because Hillary is so much more balanced when she yells black lives do matter or says I don't feel in no way tired to a black church.

I don't feel no way tired is a very, very popular phrase used in gospel music.

Nobody told me, that the road would be easy. I don't believe he's brought me this far, to leave me.

People who go to church gets this phrase. It has nothing to do with black people, but about a popular quote used in many gospel songs

Maybe he was genuinely shocked a black person was there he wanted to shout it to the world. Probably not... something worse though.

Reminds me of a few scenes from Anchorman 2...
