Michael Steele: Trump's RNC Filled With Conflicting Moments | The 11th Hour | MSNBC
forced to stay on a mental plantation…!? by who? by republican policies and racists actions.
@Hush Money but they were dixiecrats… Not today’s democrats. Dixiecrates became republicans in early 60’s. That’s historical fact. Just Google 1958 Republican platform to see. The parties swapped. Js. Learn your history. I wouldn’t use your statement without context, because it will make you look ignorant
@Hush Money No it was White People as a whole. Because it was the law. Ignorance is always bliss when you think its ok to be ignorant.
@Apache Trail thank you. You said it way better.
@Apache Trail and to add to that and more specifically the Dixiecrats left the party because the Democrats lead by Harry Truman, John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson pushed through the Integration of military (Executive Order 9981), the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act, etc.
@IMan E that is true
TRUMP’S FAMILY IS AN ORGANIZED crime syndicate
Lock them up.
There’s 5 crime families in NY, the Trumfs are the 6th!
@Jarry Sciligo there were very good reasons why the USSR (modern Russia) was called the evil empire during the Cold War
“Organized”?? That’s a bit of a stretch. Disorganized is closer to reality.
There a family of con artist…grifters an thieves!!!
The irony of republicans running on how bad it is, is that it got this bad under their leadership.
@Hank Carter it went pearshape long before covid, just a question of time before it collapsed.
@Pointless Matter even though I agree with you as for the support of Putin, but Putin is anything but a communist. He’s a plutocratic dictator, nothing to do with communism.
@LF X Democrats want communism but Trump is bubby bubby with a real live communist leader who interfered with our last election.
@LF X you got that backwards, Trump likes his communist dictators.
So how did he handle covid wrong, this has never happen to the country, nobody really knows what to do. Almost all of the Republican ran states are fine, but California is having a rough time, Chicago is destroyed, New York destroyed, Portland destroyed, New Jersey destroyed, Seattle and Minneapolis destroyed. These are all DEMOCRAT ran cities and states. So go ahead and keep voting for them.
The Commander-in-Grift, Donald J Crow, is one of the most evil conmen to have ever lived!
You couldnt possibly give him that much credit.
How much did that “Clown of color” get to betray his people?
Sell out
There’s a whole tribe of tokens
That’s KKK per Verbatim talk
These “clowns of color” that support the open racism that is the core of trumpism are like the Samuel L Jackson character in Django.
A bag of groceries
The Dino in Georgia is nothing more than a house slave, his real loyalty is to the money that got him in office, they don’t care where he sits.
Sean Breen AMEN
@Sandra Brown you are a sad person.
He should know that when Trump and Ivana visited his casino, all black people had to be cleared from the floor of the casino. Ask him does he still support this bigot after learning this news item.
On the nose man 🤣
Stitch in Time this is so true. I have no respect for all the blacks supporters who spoke highly of this racist clown. I don’t know what their agenda is, but Trump will never support them.
Nikki Haley had potential but she proved herself to be another enabler. She’s done
This poor black man from Georgia can’t see straight much less think straight
What was he offered is the big question. You just know they were desperately looking for a black Democrat to come out and say nice things about Trump. But why? He didn’t express any good reasons for it, and if Trump is such a great choice then why is he a Democrat?
Why is a life long Black Democrat at the republican convention? Money! That’s why.
@Tony Hovgaard I’ve been filling them in. However, when some think of thier pocket books because of the thought of having to pay taxes rather then thinking of minorities who have been being kept down silently without understanding the reasons why, it’s hard to convince them. Especially when thier spouses belong or belonged to groups like Free Masons’ who have been working along with this movement & are very secretive without the other even knowing what they are in danger of is in thier own homes.
Many think that Trumps’ war on indians is just immigrants who are indians from another country but, it is mostly against native americans who lived & were a part of past wars here. People who are not all indian who have plenty of white in them as well & who are legal citizens he is supposed to be protecting. Nothing like having your world turn upside down without knowing the reasons until you are already in the middle of a silent war & you are one of the targets. Believe me. It’s so unbelievably sad & no words could really describe it. I just knew something was coming. I could feel the subtle changes.
@Linda Lauer Trump cares about Trump. Why don’t you ask them to read page 203 of the cares Act. Where 43000 millionaires including Kushner and Trump received an average of 1.7 million dollars that’s 82% of that stimulus bill. If they’re not millionaires they shouldn’t have got anything but $1,200 see what they think about that. If they didn’t make more than a million dollars then they can’t use that loophole that let them use that money all the way back to 2015 taxes. And of course we get the paid at 1.3 trillion dollars back and of course they will not. Most of the Trump supporters are uneducated White. Fortunately the ones that are educated. Are trying to show the uneducated people that they are getting screwed. I am also a vietnam-era disabled veteran and a Native American 25% Lakota Sioux. I don’t like draft Dodgers and I don’t like what he is doing kid indigenous people and people that are running for their lives from other countries. We need to vote in numbers too big to rig. We can’t allow him to cheat in this election if he does I’m sorry to tell you that one of us veterans will probably take him out. We’re not going to stand for a dictatorship we did not go to combat to protect our country. And end up giving it to a moron dictating draft Dodger.
What’s wrong with money? I thought that’s what you Rethuglicans lived for.
@Hugh Manetty f everyone.
Linda Lauer – Nah, just the GOP Terror Network and their base. https://youtu.be/fZyAhRqdbm8
I am for the constitution of the USA and rule of life…NOT TRUMP!
This was the worst RNC in the history of conventions!
Some people will say anything if they are paid enough, regardless of color
Propaganda rallies: Past, Hitler in Nürnberg — Present, tRump in Charlotte
@Cocktail Hour you are no Democrat! No one that really is one would say all this BS u r spouting. You’re just another despicable troll and we all know it! Buzz off!
@Sperup AD “Rumpy is following some nazi propaganda” 10 years or so ago, I remember someone was being compared to Hitler. Just about everyone was outraged, at the time.
And now, people simply nonchalantly make the association and the general sentiment is “meh”
… it kind of speaks to the world that we all live in.
Welcome to the 21st century. :O
sad
(and yes, humpty dumpty is following the nazi playbook … I am just waiting for him to try to torch Capitol Hill and blame the -communists- liberals)
@Robert Lee Stotmtroopers were deployed by Bill Barr to repress the American people a few days ago.
Hitler his his intentions in the beginning; he fooled a bunch of idiots with his hateful speeches.
And, sure, right wingers already used idiotic radicalized kids as agent provocateurs, incels who are immature but attracted to right winger nationalism. One of the aryan cowgirls was caught breaking winows at an Autozone and starting the looitng, and blaming protesters, they dubbed him umbrella man. Want his name?

The Trump Convention was one big LIARS FEST.
and they say the exact same thing about the DNC
@Cor Williams That’s because they are all a giant sack of LYING, DECEIVING, GASLIGHTING MALIGNANT NARCISSIST just like their “leader” who admits: “I DON’T TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANYTHING.” LOL!
Vernon Jones is a disgruntled ex-Democrat. When he was running for office, he sent out a flyer with a false picture of him and Obama together. Obama denied that he ever stood for a picture with Jones. Jones is a liar, like his master, Trump.
Yep.
I knew he was a lier. Thank You. That’s Crazy. Some People will sell their Soul for $$$. He is on the RIGHT SIDE (Traitor). Right Side get it ???😁😅😂
I did not know there are this many narcissists in Americia. Its crazy.
They are a dime a dozen in Washington. It is like a bright light to a moth
They say they are the best for black people while also saying that urban brown people are coming to destroy your suburb. Total nonsense.
I GUESS YOU DIDN’T NOTICE ALL THE WEBSITES THAT SHOW THAT ANTIFA AND URBAN BLACKS WANT TO “DISRUPT” THE SUBURBS.
@Lei Shy You should notice that you’re stuck on caps lock
‘Free thinking only applies with you think like me’ – Yep, nailed Trump. Thanks Mr Steele.
Till he gets home and his woman tells him who he’s voting for Lmao that was Golden but true across many Demographics but true!
Was that Trumps “there’s my black guy” he’s alway pointing to at his rallies?
If you have to parade Blacks through to “prove” you’re not racist. . .well, you’ve already lost.
Democrats parade gays,brown,black etc….you’re right ,Trump by a landslide!
@Fitness and Politics AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA! How HILARIOUS! The ONLY “sliding” that’s about to happen is Body Bag Donnie sliding into the Federal Penitentiary in 2021!
