muslim, that audience applauds how much they don t like muslims because of who they are. african-americans with this. i always thought the birtherrism was to build the first 20% of his coalition and build on the hating of mexicans and muslims and the high 30. it was connexted like a big cake. right? his loathing. a multi-layered cake with lots of white slices, but here s the thing. his antipathy through obama. angel food. exactly. he s angry at obama for not just being successful, but a successful black guy. part of that is is an ananema of star wars few strike me down, i will come back more power. . the fact that he keeps talking about obama grandizes what he
wouldn t say george bush is a white supremacist. i have a problem with his policies. i can make an argument how they affect black people in a negative way? right. i wouldn t argue he s a white supremacist. i wouldn t argue mitt romney is a white supremacist. in terms of the essential core of what he is doing i don t think he s president without it. i think that s the huge difference. it s not a side. it s not like bush 1 for instance with willie horton, which was bad, by the way, right? not definite. this is a thing in order to get over. it s the core of him. he began his career in birtherrism. it wasn t along the way. that was what kicked it off. so i think in that sense, he s different. there s a real question i think about sometimes about trump and i think about ross perot. right. where i think about it. i remember living through the ross perot phenomenon and thinking there was all these pieces like the two-party system

guy, let s get rid of the guy who could be blamed, i go back to even well before that, the racial an mus donald trump projected throughout the course of his career, the birtherrism while obama was president. bannon wasn t in his life i m aware of at that time. so that was donald trump speaking. it perhaps enshrined the all the right when bannon was brought into the white house. so hess departure i don t think changes anything. there is one thing it does affect, though, as a republican, seeing senator corker take donald trump to task yesterday, i think that could have been a breaking point where republicans really would have stood up to the president and said, we re not financial to take this and create their own agenda and rally against him. but this now with bannon leaving, i think it gives a lot of excuses to a lot of republicans to say, oh, well,
there is a reason crossfire is off the air. thank you, panel. president trump calls the russian investigation a witch hunt. remember, this comes from the guy who supported the birtherrism. remember he sent people to hawaii to try to figure out where obama came from? you re watching hardball.
