NEW YORK — Donald Trump met with a group of black pastors for several hours Monday, calling the session an “amazing meeting” that went longer than planned because “we came up with lots of good ideas.” (Scroll down for AP Video)

The outcome of his New York meeting didn’t seem to faze Trump, however, saying he was “amazed” by today’s events and it was a “beautiful thing” that none of the attendees asked him to change the tone of his message.

“I think they want to see victory because it is about we want to win and we want to win together,” he said after the meeting this afternoon.

ABC news reports: Trump’s campaign had originally promoted today’s meeting, which reportedly involved nearly 100 African-American pastors, as an endorsement, sending out a news release Wednesday using that language. The meeting was supposed to be followed by a news conference, which was canceled this weekend, and no media was invited to the closed meeting.

But Trump was endorsed by some members of the group, including the Rev. Darrell Scott of the New Spirit Revival Center in Cleveland Heights, Ohio, and Pastor Steve Parson, a Richmond-area minister in Virginia.

“He’s best for not only the country but certainly the black community,” Parson said. “We’re wanting to get off of welfare and we feel that can be done through the information the knowledge of a person like Donald Trump.”
