Pulitzer Prize-Winning Reporter: President Trump Is A Racist | The Beat With Ari Melber | MSNBC

    1. OMG… A PULITZER-PRIZE WINNING RADICAL AF. AMER “ACTIVIST” CALLED TRUMP A “RACIST”..WTF?This is huge, Trump has to be Racist then. If only the Dems can also find a Nobel Prize Winner to call Trump racist, then all his support will collapse for sure.

    2. @CITRUS KNIGHT One reason to the horrifying emerge of neofascism and racism, hate and fear among Donald´s cult is bad education. Of course some people are too stupid to educate, but far from all. Education has to be free from all influence of religion and different ideologies. It is important that young people are informed about them and then discuss them, nothing else. Education, from grade one to university studies has to be objective when it comes to politics.Most of Donald´s ignorant fans are primitive, uneducated people. It is disgusting to watch the lunatic energizing them with hate, fear, insane lies, horrible insults and name callings and it is disgusting to watch them cheering and applauding him at his insane rallies where he has the audacity to applaud himself. That is how dictators behaves. He tells them that legally elected politicians are illegal. That is hair-raising. The guy is very, very dangerous, not only to America but to the entire world’. He is a global security risk. A most disgusting, horrible, sick lunatic, a new Hitler.

    3. YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT FACISM IS. TRUMP IS NOTHING LIKE A FASCIST. FASCISTS ARE ANTI CAPITALIST AND ANTI CONSITUTIONALIST. FASCISTS CONTROL PROPLE’S LIVES. FASCISTS TAKE AWAY THEIR FREE SPEECH. FASCISTS TAKE AWAY GUNS. THE ONLY ONES WHO MEET THAT DESCRIPTION ARE THE LEFTIST MOB THAT HAS TAKEN OVER THE DEMOCRAT PARTY.

    1. Jeff Karas: It’s not just his rally audience. Even in Congress you can’t top Republican (PA) rep Mike Kelly for stupid. “I’m an Anglo Saxon. You can’t have a name like Mike Kelly and be from anywhere but Ireland.” ??? Is that what we call an oxymoron? Or just a moron?

  1. He is blowhard he is a fool but he is the only thing on TV, where are the dems why cant they move why cant they make any ground despite the buttload of criminality and corruption, where are they? freaking dithering and bumbling, the dems need a figure a loud mouth a strongman or woman they need to move they need to throw punches

  2. It’s summer of 2019 and it leaves plenty of opportunity to pick on other congress members or individuals or anything else “racial” that can happen. He sees success with this stunt and will repeat it again, much closer to the election. I suggest we don’t call him out when it happens. Just let the voters shake their heads and make that decision. If they decide stupidly then we just except the fact that we live in a stupid country. Maybe he’ll get shot!

  3. Trump is actually offended that anyone would say that he’s not a racist. Notice how he never seems to be offended by being called a racist. Whenever he makes racist comments, he doesn’t take them back, he doubles down on them.
    Trump’s racist comments over the years have received praise from neo-nazis and white supremacist leaders like David Duke.
    Trumo: “I have black guys counting my money. … I hate it. The only guys I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes all day. Laziness is a trait in blacks. It really is, I believe that.”

    Trump: “Jeb Bush has to like the Mexican illegals because of his wife.”
    Jeb Bush’s wife is Mexican – American

    During the campaign, Trump impugned the character of U.S. District Judge Gonzalo Curiel, a native-born American, hailing from Indiana, who was hearing a class action case against Trump’s now-discredited Trump University.

    “He’s a Mexican,” Trump said to CNN of Curiel. “We’re building a wall between here and Mexico. The answer is, he is giving us very unfair rulings — rulings that people can’t even believe.”

    1. Who in today’s world is offended by being called a racist? You clowns have so overused it that it’s now considered a badge of honor even by centrists.

    2. @David J so true, if it didn’t bother them they would claim it proudly. They would openly call themselves that.

      But they don’t, because they are cowards.

    3. @David J +FYI.. Thx to bitter desperate ppl like you &#fakenewsmedia “Racist” or better “HITLER”Labels are greatest “Heroic badges of Honor”to anybody outside you lib-nutters, even better when label is used against a non-whites like me, I love it… Because 99.9% of time you or any media person use it, it is obvious your trying to make an impact, & it always does opposite, TRUMPS POLL #s GO UP BIG, & you dumbasses look like even bigger embarrassing dumbasses for again “trying wayyyy too hard” & deservingly going backwards…Some advise, It says infinitely more about accuser calling someone “Hitler” than person being accusing. The more you do it the more shamelessly shallow & brainwashed your monkey-minds have become. MOST IMPORTANT, IT SHOWS HOW EASILY YOU INSIGNIFICANT “NOTHINGS” GET TRIGGERED OVER LITERALLY NOTHING, & START MAKING MOST RIDICULOUS LAUGHABLE COMPARISONS ABOUT PPL AFTERWARDS. ALWAYS RESORTING TO “RACISM” OR “SEXISM”HOMOPHOBIA (I really have butchphobia btw) IN DESPERATELY OBVIOUS ATTEMPTS TO “VIRTUE SIGNAL” & HOPEFULLY WIN SOME “HIPSTER CHIC POINTS” w/EACHOTHER. It’s a “badge of honor” because it whoever is called a “racist” by you soyfaces or other neo-libs succesfully triggered you monkeys into a fake outrage fit only making you hate Trump more. While everyone else thinks you guys are being overly-dramatic unfair clowns, who could be dangerous w/any power.

    4. @V. V, i’m sure trump idiots will still find a way to prove they’re still idiots. And they never disappoint. Congrats.

  4. If Trump was anyone else, he wouldn’t be welcomed in the majority of the circles he slinks in.

  5. I never understood how Hitler could rise to power..now I know.. complicit from the far right and a political party that value themselves more than the country.

    1. @LarryD-Forevah Di giovanni
      Fascist is hyperbole. Some (Pelosi) say this is a distraction, provocation. I think it’s a little more subtle thnn eithher and worse; much worse.. Trump flames Dems because when he does that his base all believe him more.

      You see for a lot of his base, they were sold the dream, did everything they should do , worked hard , served, believed and they found – nada, sweet fa, no ‘livin’ their dream’, no respect, no being ok, their lives are crap and they don’t know why.

      Trump, on the other hand, they see as attacking the liars who sold the dream to them the ‘forgotten people, He obeys no moral norms and IS livin’ the dream. To them that proves he’s a brave truth teller. Most of the forgotten people believe they’d be sacked for one racist comment. So to them, he’s brave. And brave people tell the truth.

      So the more offensive he is the more arrogant he acts the more they believe him.
      The more trouble he’s in the more transgressive he’ll be.

    2. Unfortunately, as an European i have to say that the US don’t deserve this, but it looks like it’s long overdue.

    3. Charles Stevenson I thought the exact same thing…. How could they not see and understand what he was doing? I also see now as well… I remember the video of the troops walking Germans through the death camps and the horror on their faces.. What did they think would happen?? I actually think Trump supporters would say, “OH WELL” if they saw hundreds and hundreds of dead immigrants and children from our southern border laid out dead with bullet wounds piled up one on top of the other… Trump IS NOT HITLER.. Unfortunately he’s using the EXACT SAME rhetoric though and many turned a blind eye to the deaths.. We already have 25 adults dead and 6 children and Trump supporters are indifferent… They showed the picture of this beautiful 18mth old girl hugging her daddy DEAD in the water and, thru show indifference… It sure is showing similarities…

    4. @Swnsasy _ One reason to the horrifying emerge of neofascism and racism, hate and fear among Donald´s cult is bad education. Of course some people are too stupid to educate, but far from all.

  6. These people are their fathers children. Take a good look, this is how people rationalized slavery one lie to yourself at a time! They would only understand if it happened to them, they have no empathy or feeling for anyone but themselves.

    1. Yes…as long as it is happening to someone else they are just FINE! Wait till it knocks on their door in some way….they will be outraged.

    1. i’m very white in a very white area in a very white country that never had slavery. Everyone here knows what “go back where you came from” means.

  7. Trump’s slimy behavior is always alright, his brainwashed cult will accept anything because their own reality is so sad that they can’t stand it and they just love to see their leader talk down others. They enjoy the pleasure of belonging to the right group at least once in life – though it is just despicable scum and trailer trash still poor and sick long after Trump will be gone.

  8. Forget about cracking the Twump base. They think like he does. The important thing is the 60% of other Americans gotta vote and elect a new president

    1. @Major Disaster Your a perfect example…what do southern states have to do with anything? please explain.

  9. Let him keep his racist ignorant base,make sure you get all the reasonable sensible American people out to vote

  10. Racist rally hosted by trump, the racist “president”.
    Payback day is coming next year in November.

  11. This will not go well for trump supporters
    Oklahoma farmers are committing suicide
    Iowa has No Clean Water
    Ohio lost 5000 jobs

  12. Child Rapists Trump and Epstein both deserve to spend the rest of their lives in PRISON!
    Lock them up!
    Lock them up!
    Lock them up!

  13. The last Trumper (guy in red shirt/glasses) sounded like he was rationalizing Trump’s words to mean, ‘go back to where you were before you came to DC… like… Queens, or whatever city they lived in prior to getting elected… but NOT go back to some other country’…..
    Except, that doesn’t fly, dude. Trump was pretty pointed in referencing other countries that are a ‘mess’ in his opinion.

  14. This is devastating to see how uneducated Individual One’s base are. I feel so sorry that our education system parenting did not teach
    people to think for themselves and to understand the foundations of our country. They follow a despot who wants to be king and screw our Constitution and ethics of our Great Experiment. We are in a very dangerous place– just like Germany in the 1930s.
