HRC Issues Letter Condemning Racial Violence | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Even Hillary’s initials are doing more to condemn racism in America than t’rump. 😆😅🤣
@Triandis Crim What’s pathetic are the efforts to prevent the prosecution of corruption in America. Don’t worry, justice is coming for them all in due time.
@Bourjois M I feel sad for you man.
@J. Noble No need Dear!

@Nicole Cordova hahaha hahaha hahaha hahaha that’s good
Wouldn’t need civil rights laws if it weren’t for all this racism and bigotry
@Troy Stocker ?
Exactly.
@J. Noble even Obama didn’t correct the systematic racism in the country. It’s deep rooted. It’s going to take the people to demand change.
No more civil rights. We need human rights. We need to put the country on the world stage and showcase all the human rights violations.
@Edward Tillotson well considering I’m a “lefty” and i have an essential job and haven’t been “hiding in a basement behind my keyboard ” makes you a liar.
I do not think that it racism only. This is a war between social classes – and the rich are winning, like Warren Buffet already outlined long time ago.
They scapegoat minorities, so you won’t see the elites picking their pockets 🤔🤔🤔
I don’t think the cop who killed George Floyd was thinking about money. One iota.
@Samara Hamilton No, but the idea of elitism against his idea of class warfare fueled his murder!
You can tell when someone is a bigot because they would never want what they do done to them!
We cannot move forward until all 4 Police Killers get arrested, prosecuted and sentence to the maximum that the law allows.
@Damir Hajrulahovic the racism is strong with you. Little care about murder, but death penalty for robbery.
Amen.
@Rory Cannon isn’t it funny how the cop that killed him worked with him for 10 years at a night club ..I don’t operate on emotions , I look at the evidence and think . And let’s say this is about justice , what did the hair salon and the auto store have to do with it ?
@Damir Hajrulahovic “isn’t it funny how the cop that killed him worked with him for 10 years at a night club ..I don’t operate on emotions , I look at the evidence and think ”
lmao it doesnt even matter that your “evidence” is in all likelihood fabricated, it means absolutely nothing.
hmm it really takes some emotions-based thinking to believe what you do.
“what did the hair salon and the auto store have to do with it ?”
nothing.
@Damir Hajrulahovic Ten years? The man didn’t even live in Minneapolis for that many years.
*MEANWHILE “THE BRAVE AND TOUGH PRESIDENT” OF WAR HIDDEN LIKE A MOUSE IN HIS BUNKER*
@Tyeler Nowell That’s impressive I’ve never seen your name on a Billionaire’s list , or your name on a 20 story building…. but never give up on your dreams , because !
That’s what makes America great..
AND !
Maybe , just maybe ?
Some day you’ll be able to afford a car that you don’t have to push..
@DAYBROK3 he also called for his MAGA people to come.
They didn’t! Good thing he has 2 thumbs.🤣
Yep
@Slim P spineless Orange Clown
@Ellie BlueSea Yes that Vagina neck
Diversity is the greatest strength of our society. Every group brings something special to the society. Celebrate diversity. Peace family.
You would have to go get them cop an out them in jail
Trumpanzees hate tolerance and diversity above all else. Deportations, the wall, Trump Supporters sabotaging peaceful protests. It’s disgusting, really.
There’s those, Republicans, who want to oppress, be on top, don’t want to share, who believe in slavery and slave wages. That’s what’s going on. Democrats are humane and are for the people, all people.
@Caitlyn Cruz ANTIFA wouldn’t vote for Trump, have you been watching news?
Care to explain what this strength is exactly?
No point having cosmetic touch-up when the cancer has seeped through to the bone. Institutionalised racism against any minority must go. The political will & leadership for change lies in the White House. It’s been far too long that yesterday’s slavery has turned into today’s racism against people of African origin. Start with Trump. He must go! Or else, the people must demand for self autonomy.
All men are equal.
@Jim McLoughlin We’re captives in a reality tv show none of us auditioned for. Unless they dispose of Nicholas and Alexandra in the next few episodes, the show needs to be cancelled.
All people, all humans = One Race!!
Trumps hate goes way larger than just africans it is women, and ALL people of color WAY👌
It has been 97 years since the Equal Rights Amendment was first introduced to Congress, and it has NOT been ratified to the US Constitution yet!!
Trump Derangement Syndrome at it’s finest.
Trump doesn’t want to be the leader of a nation ; he is more comfortable being the head of an asylum .
@DC Means I poor kids are just as smart as white kids, a child was playing with my hair leg, lmao biden tells on himself every day, not to mention you are not black if you dont vote for me lmao
@DC Means I well, he does *charge for all the security personnel and their needs, at yuuugely inflated, fictitious prices (doubling member fees at maralargo, overnight in Jan 2017) bed, board, golf carts etcetera.
*Doesn’t like doing any real presidential work.
*eat & fart around on extensive executive time.
*likes AF one. Makes him feel like a pasha /potentate.
*can relatively easily, liaise with the gangsters in kremlin, outside of eavesdropping secure lines
*can defiantly keep his beady eyes on his businesses with his criminal family.
*other underhanded stuff:
*insists on nato planes, stopover refuelling in Scotland, by his golf courses, personnel stay there.
*asked pence to stay 180 miles away from his sch venues, at his golf club/hotel in Ireland, so can extort treasury
Old white-collared fraud – inflate for banks, deflate for insurance.

Learnt from his father. Plus misstated invoicing. Ivanka does that pretty well now…
😷 Have a nice day 😷
After Obama’s historically low ratings on “Direction of America” I can’t believe the left!
H. W Bush hit 55% of citizens satisfied with the direction of the Country!
Obama peaked @37%!!! ONLY 37% of the NATION liked the direction!
and THAT was his peak!!!
And that was NOV 2016, HE was leaving!!!
Gallup poll, since Jimmy Carter era!!
Reagan peak was 69%!!!
69% of the COUNTRY was satisfied with the countries direction!!
George W, and Clinton, BOTH HIT 70%!!
And Obama peaked at 37%??
Hollywood and the media loved him, the rest of the country, NOT so much!
Again Gallup POLL
I know his fan club loved him, worshiped him, but dude, Obviously not the whole country. He was very divisive. I think the numbers prove it…
Look at the totals, after Obama’s first two years, Democrat’s lost over 1,000 elected seats at the local and national level, over the next 6 years!
CNN Poll in 2017, showed Democrat’s at the lowest popularity level in 25 years!
Independent’s were the majority party! They outnumbered DNC and RNC…
I wonder if President Hunker in the Bunker will crawl out of his hole today.
The real hole is in his heart, and he’ll never crawl out of that hole.
@Michael Nolte Yeah AND someone breathing down your neck ALL the time, wouldn’t bother you…. YEAH RIGHT….he sends MAGATS to protest the handling of covid-19 and makes up LIES 🖕🖕🖕👎👎😎 to stir up hatred and, Please PLEASE inform me, why is PARTISAN A BELIEF ? FREE TO BELIEVE IN WHO WE WANT HAS ALWAYS BEEN OUR CHOICE…. BI-PARTISAN HAS ALWAYS BEEN FINE UNTIL THE ORANGE POTUS 🐷 CAME TO BE…..
@GourmetGilda
The way tRump plays Golf he feels right at home in the Bunker!
@Damian Draven Trump wished he wasn’t orange Too!
@Paul ha! There is no law of god, only law of men.
That was 50 yrs ago! Why hasn’t this changed? I thought my generation was better. It isn’t. I just hope my kids generation is better than mine, like we tried to be better than my parents.
Joe Biden acts like a leader by condemning racism and involving in peaceful protest against police brutality. Donald J. Trump has not shown any leadership neither condemning racism nor confronting police brutality in a peaceful matter. What Trump would do is to stoke violence to bring anarchy and lawlessness that he craves.
@Vernell Windon not what he said
@Eamon O’Connell Wow. That was THE DUMBEST statement EVER!! How does that prove a single thing? The KKK was still resurrected by Republicans. Period. You actually think the KKK was actually ran by the Republican Party? Moron.
https://www.splcenter.org/hatewatch/2016/03/08/no-ku-klux-klan-has-never-ever-been-leftist-organization
@Real American the Democrats are the KKK. Slavery is their business. Obama perpetuated the entire rasism situation.
Where’s BLM?
Liberal state. Liberal Governor. Liberal city. Liberal mayor. Liberal police chief. LIBERAL LAWS.
WHAT DON’T YOU GET?
peaceful protesting? looks more like rioting, lotting, and arson to me. racism?
https://www.statista.com/statistics/585152/people-shot-to-death-by-us-police-by-race/
Liberal Faux outrage is exhausting…
One should wonder, How many similar or may be worse incidents of police brutality that weren’t recorded ?
Joe Biden behaving like a true president. His words and actions these last few months have been inspirational.. Trump just hides in a basement.. There it is. Right there.
robert avalon Maybe his bone spurs are acting up again. 🤔🤥
@Jeff Schlarb What’s your point? My father fought the Chinese in the Korean War and came within an inch of becoming either a prisoner of the Chinese or killed. I have nothing personal against any individual Chinese person but there are two things I KNOW for sure.
First, China is on the road to world domination if not stopped and Trump is so pathetic, so talentless, so inept and incompetent that the fact that he is president gives China a great head start to world domination. Trump’s incompetent “presidency” is actually a great asset to China….so incompetent is he.
I don’t know your age or educational level but I’d guess you’re no older than 24 and didn’t go past high school or a year or two in Community college, if that. You do not see the World picture. You only see the view from within the Trump Cult.
You’ll live years past me but I want you to remember this: Trump’s presidency is a great asset, a great head start for China on their road to world domination. You’ll understand when you get in your 40s, 50s or 60s. You’ll get it because we’ll have to fight China, or rather your children will and Trump will have made China stronger because he is totally inept. When we should have been getting stronger to meet China head on we were, instead, saddled with the tweeting president.
@Jeff Schlarb You must have made a mistake. I said nothing about decriminalizing border crossings. Looks like you jus wanted some attention.
Biden has been in his basement, too. Ha ha.
@Jewel Levy Napoleon said, “Never interfere when your enemy is making a mistake.” Biden is on the sidelines, out of sight, out of mind, letting Trump run his big mouth about Disinfectant Injections and “when the looting starts the shooting starts” and other such vote-destroying remarks. And, Trump’s incompetence, denials and lies about the virus are costing him too.
People in Trump’s base are dying just like everyone else and when they figure out that their loved ones maybe didn’t have to die but that Trump’s lies and denials have killed their loved one….Trump will pay.
Biden is just standing by, watching Trump shoot himself in both feet.
I think all of us minorities are just really frustrated to be told to go back to our own country when being a citizen says we are considered lesser of a human being. By maga and trump’s political ideology. This frustration has accumulated throughout the past 3 years. We are told to just accept it or be arrested. It’s unfair and unjust for people reading the writing on the wall. Everyone knows this maga movement is racially charged. Period.
Rory Cannon what?! No one! R u sick in the head or something?!
@Krupt Temple because the effects of the slavery, racism, and jim crow laws+more dont just vanish. theres effects from redlining, being trapped in poverty, and existing racism today.
@Samantha Fisher pay in the sense of, *have to contribute to help make right*
@Krupt Temple If you’ve got slave-owner ancestors who passed through Ellis Island, you are quite unique. LOL. Learn your history before you throw out geographic locations you heard somewhere once upon a time.
You missed the point I don’t have slave owner ancestors ,but where is the money gonna come from and all white people seem to be complicit in this
Trump go outside in front of White House and take your kneel.
And then apologize to Kaepernick.
100 leader all must be laughing at bunker man now 🤣🤣🤣
Maybe the citizenry – thinking – we’re the ones who should be wearing body cameras? Peace to all! Stay safe.
Riots? Looning? .. it (started?) when POTUS claimed “I can shoot somebody at 5th Avenue, and …” NO consequences! That spirit was released and can now be seen everywhere.
It is the Job Loss and the EXTREME painfully JOKE: $ 1200 for (minimum) 10 weeks with no extension, NO future. AND all the rest of the tremendous Relief Funds in the big pockets of …? FOLLOW the money, it call$$$$.
Why is he hiding in a bunker instead of talking to the people
Bone spurs migrating to his forehead?
Gee tRump is looking more like his daddy by the day!
Because Donald Trump is a soulless coward.
He’s not the messiah, he’s a very naughty BOY !!!
