Donald Trump and Steve Harvey meet, share some presumably mean-spirited laughs

Ensuring that America’s inner cities will learn how to act like a lady, but think like a man, multiple outlets are reporting that talk show host and author Steve Harvey has met with President-Elect Donald Trump. Harvey, of course, is a noted American job creator, having personally kept the country’s giant-suit industry afloat for the last 20 years. But he apparently met with Trump to discuss topics like urban development and housing. And while cynics might suggest that Trump was simply trying to curry favor with the country’s most eye-rollingest black game show host—and, thus, black America itself—Harvey seemed enthusiastic about the sit-down.

“I came and talked to the guy who’s going to be the 45th President of the United States,” Harvey said. “[We spoke about] housing for urban development…[to] bring some positive change in the inner cities. He wants to do something. He realizes he needs some allies in that department. He seemed really sincere about it.” That openness was a marked contrast to Harvey’s past comments about Trump, when he denounced the then-candidate for his comments about grabbing women without their consent. (This, after Trump slammed Harvey for announcing the wrong winner at his Miss Universe pageant in 2015.)
