Voter Pushes Trump To Acknowledge Nation's Race Problem. Trump Wouldn't. | The 11th Hour | MSNBC

    1. The full town hall was released, these are discussions on the issues, they’re not supposed to show it all because others have seen them

    2. The whole point of this show segment was to interpret the meaning of the president’s persistent denial of a race problem in the USA. To remind viewers that the president doesn’t see a race problem, the little clip was shown, but the little clip was not the point of the segment.

    1. Well I guess better than other countries since everyone wants to move here, with a name like Jose likely that’s what your family did so explain that

    1. @Joe Wynne Maybe research what was actually happening at the time of each recording. Then you’ll see the appropriate action was being taken at the time. You dipshits act like information on the corona virus has been consistent when even the CDC is constantly changing their guidelines.

    2. bob sapp you exemplify faith: the triumph of hope over experience. Maybe in a second term Trump would grow into the job…but ( as the wise guy said) “Why take the chance? At least that’s the way I look at it.”

    3. @Joe Wynne grow into the job? You sound like you judge a president’s performance based on twitter posts rather than policy making.

    1. @Jean-Henri Dunant lol, good trolling, but you should lighten up just a bit if you want it to be believable, nobody real could actually be this stupid and pathetic.

    2. @Jean-Henri Dunant I like how you use stats from the last 6 months when everything was shut down. Are you still mad that republicans freed the slaves?

    3. @don Can you imagine what it would be like to have TDS? I didn’t like Obama, OR Bush for that matter, but I didn’t go totally insane because of them. I just accepted it and moved on with my life. Maybe some people just need to get a life.

  1. lmao ya cut it off before he even answered the guy… im pausing to write this to then leave and go find the WHOLE clip you clowns

    1. they probably didn’t want to hear or air more lies from him, its no secret he’s a card carrying racist if he says anything else he’s a liar, i know who the clown is

    2. I’m not convinced that watching the full video would improve my opinion of trump. I’ve seen more than enough of his insane rambling and hateful tweets.

    3. @Crystal Telf how exactly am i supposed to know what the impact of what he said IS without seeing all of what he said? makes no sense

    4. @BubblewrapHighway ignorance is bliss i guess, but me, i clicked the video to see what trump said to the mans questions. im not even shocked that msnbc didnt allow it. they dont want people like you hearing all of what he says, might hurt their narrative

    1. Naa it’s better to have the non-contributor clubs at BLM and ANTIFA come up and scream you’re a racist in your face while being 76 years old and sitting in a Restaurant not even knowing WTF they’re on about.

      Maybe that’s what you guys are doing out in the west coast wilds..looking for them wasists, and not lighting your states on fire ……

  2. Honestly as much as I don’t like him… I’d rather see his full answer. I don’t like how the media cuts him/anyone from their full answer

    1. @Janet Nielsen sorry if I can’t tell whether or not you’re joking. 😜On average, around 50 people are struck and killed by lightning every year. Last year, 49.

    2. @Newyn Yuno 3/5 was passed to avoid civil war. Why? Because slave owners were racists and didn’t want to lose political power. Duh.

    3. Newyn Yuno first off the founding fathers knew slavery was immoral. In fact the original plan was to phase slavery out over a period of 40 years so that they didn’t cripple the southern economy. However the creation of political parties and the introduction of special interest in our government caused southern Democrat’s to pressure the federal government to recognize slavery as a property right. However this issue was exasperated even more because of a weak succession of Presidents over that time span and an uneven House of Representatives. As for affirmative action it benefiting white women has been debunked in the past because it doesn’t mean anything when you account for population. I’m not saying hasn’t had a racist past and that there hasn’t been systemic racism but I am saying that right now in the year 2020 there is no such thing in this country as systemic racism or systematic oppression of any group of people.

    4. @Newyn Yuno Why don’t you tell me what rights and privileges white people have that other races and groups don’t have? Before you answer, I’d appreciate it if you lay your politics and TDS aside.

    5. @stan shaud The Founding Father’s were massive hypocrites. Prove that affirmative action benefiting white women has been disproven. Your words for its not gonna do it. You’re saying a lot of things and proving none of them. Southern Democrats. I keep forgetting no Republicans owned slaves and that no explicitly racist legislation was passed after slavery was “abolished”. Probably because explicitly racist legislation was passed. The Founding Father’s planned to phase out slavery. 😂

  3. Whenever you people dont show the whole thing, you are lying. I dont want narratives I want truth. When this is said and done you will be called out for the traitors you are!

    1. @michael lee one of many, when he fails to condemn white supremacy groups in this country, what a coincidence that many of them support and go to his rallies, o yes Trump loves the Confederate Flag because he says it is a proud asset to the United States, a Cabinet full of all white men in his administration, sorry there is ONE token black guy. Must i go on

    2. @michael lee So when Heather Heyes got killed in 2007 by white supremacy James Alex Field at rally in North Carolina, He viciously drove a car into her. Your President didn’t have the guts to defend her and go against the white supremacist group. On the Contrary, he defended them by saying that they had a right to protest because they were American too. He further stated ” There is a two sides to each story regarding the incident.” If that isn’t a sign of racism then i don’t know what is!

    3. @fridaymanly President has no power to do anything about that? And how does that show he is a racist? I don’t know the story but why didn’t the DA prosecute the person President can pardon someone but not put them in jail…. maybe the DA was racist?

    1. @Speedy Max more brothers and sisters are voting President Trump, it’s a walkaway thing you being white privilege makes you unable to understand it,…
