While speaking on the Liberal Network Thursday, the Florida lawmaker answered questions regarding the<a href=\"https:\/\/cbc.house.gov\/\"> Congressional Black Caucus<\/a> denying him membership.<\/p>\n<p>The CNN anchor then played a soundbite of the 45th president speaking about race and then asked the congressman if his support for the president was the reason behind his denial into the Black Caucus. In response to the patronizing tactic, Donalds said this:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cFirst of all, whatever the president said in the past has nothing to do with this discussion at all. As a black man in America, I\u2019m aloud to have my own thoughts on who I choose to support and who I choose not to support. \u2026My support of President Trump has been consistent.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">ICYMI: This morning, I joined <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CNN?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@CNN<\/a> to discuss the importance of diverse thought and political ideology in the Congressional Black Caucus.
