Donald Trump on Friday celebrated that he's potentially being seen as a victim by some within the Black community, saying it's been "pretty amazing" that "Black people like" him because he's being prosecuted in several criminal cases.
The former president was the keynote speaker of the Black Conservative Federation's Annual BCF Honors Gala in Columbia, South Carolina, on Friday, where he talked at length about the pardons he gave out while in office. Trump also spoke about his impeachments and indictments, once again comparing himself to Al Capone.
While speaking at the event, Trump said, he got indicted "for nothing."

"They were doing it because it's election interference," he said, adding that it helped his appeal among certain minority groups. "A lot of people said that's why the Black people like me, because they have been hurt so badly and discriminated against."
He continued, saying, "They actually viewed me as being discriminated against," while laughing.
"It's been pretty amazing."
