selling water, barbecuing, all of this. people dragged clemons in the waffle house. or starbucks if you re just sitting there. all of this is part of it. this is 2018. we re not talking about the 60s. all of this happened this year. let me go back to a point as if this is new to the republican party, quite candidly this started with the southern strategy. this is when the dixiecrats were very upset with the civil rights movement, the the volustrom thuf the world. and then you had one that came up with the southern strategy. this has been going for several decades. and then you cap it with the fact let s go back to just a year ago, charlottesville. and the president of the united states who had a perfect opportunity to say to the world
dixiecrats because they were conservative democrats. over the last decade, they have converted to republicans. their lives have been disrupted by a hurricane. early voting in most of the 67 counties in florida ended yesterday. what we have right now is eight counties where they have extended early voting by the governor s order. so we can report that so far 16,807 people have voted in those counties just today. across the state, 5.111452 million people have early voted, either by going to the polls early or by mailing in their ballots. in this state, the democratic republican split is a very narrow margin. you have 35.3% of the registered voters here republicans. 37.2% are democrats. so it will break down, perhaps, by the demographics of different
let s see what a republican congress or new the first thing you do is end this what s it called, uh to be autocracy. you have to stop trump. just 22 days out from the midterm, three weeks from tomorrow, early voting already underway. vote if you can early. i believe in early voting in case you don t make it election day. we re going to look at who is up and who is down in key western states. the concerns have always owned the south, dixiecrats. they own the cowboy part of the country. in the midwest they re touchy about jobs and trade and stuff. they switch back and forth. you have to figure out who they re mad at most right now and right now they re mad at trump. this is hardball where the action is. (vo) this is not a video game.
another bus halted by a flat tire was set afire. it put the savagery and it puts the brutality on television, it puts this massive resistance on display, not just across the country, but across the world. and the governor of alabama, john patterson had said citizens of the state are so enraged, i cannot guarantee protection for this bunch of rebel rousers. the whole world is watching. the violence could undermine kennedy s presidential authority. jfk says get them off the buses. stop them from demonstrating. jack does not want to back the protesters. supporting civil rights would make him very unpopular with southern democrats. let s not forget the south is solidly democratic. they call them dixiecrats. but they were democrats. so a big part of the power base for the kennedys rests in the south. in a desperate attempt to diffuse the situation, bobby makes a call. bobby tried to convince the freedom riders they should hold
bigoted, biased and racist doctrine here because he s not i mean, you know southern dixiecrats and republicans in the 50s that were smart enough to at least stay away from a roy moore. he s just all in. and to think that john lewis and others would sit there, in that museum, where emmett tillman was killed and they re going to talk about where you ve got the work of others while he actively withdraws from voter rights lawsuits and actively says we re pulling police back. what is he going to walk around there for? he denounces people for protesting now, and the whole museum of full of protesters. that s where the freedom summer was in mississippi. i don t even know why he s going other than he s trying to have it both ways and you can t do that. and why would they normalize it or dignify it by here s the thing. i understand a normal president
