Trump fails to correct GOP consultant who said cable hosts of killing more black people the KKK

A Republican consultant, while sitting a few feet from a silent Donald Trump, on Wednesday incorrectly accused two black journalists of killing more African Americans than the Klu Klux Klan.

Raynard Jackson, during a White House event on race relations, was in the middle of slamming media outlets and journalists when he singled out CNN's Don Lemon and MSNBC's Joy Reid. Like Mr Jackson, both cable news hosts are black.

Mr Jackson accused the duo of "putting more poison into the black community than any drug dealer."

He also contended, without any evidence, that Mr Lemon and Ms Reid are guilty of "killing more black folks than any white person with a sheet ever their face."
