treat minding their own business and they see someone cling to their purse or walk across the street. or every black parent i know has a boy has to sit down and have a conversation, the talk, as we call it. and as you said, those ordinary examples of racism that happens every single day. every single day. valerie jared is absolutely right. this is much much bigger than rose ann s dumb racist tweets. this is about the normalization of racism across this country. this is about people who now feel free to say exactly the kind of thing roseanne said. we ve all known for a long time just how roseanne feelsism back if 2013, she compared former u.s. ambassador to the united nation susan rice to an ape in a tweet she later deleted. in 2009, for a photo shoot, she dressed up as hitler and baked
regard. this other piece is different, invoking race, invoking the most divisive language and symbols to try and inflame those divisions in our society. that is also part in parcel of his politics, him trying to get from under this probe and it s despicable and unworthy of a president of the united states. well said. how can you even trust it s sad that wwhen we can t trust ag that comes out of the mouth of our president. when we come back, president trump could have condemned roseanne s attack on valerie jared but he didn t. why doesn t this president ever seem to stand up to racist?

i think biggots now think, yeah i m a big, so what. what s the consequence contentiif i can see this discrimination from on high why can t i do it myself? mike. first of all, her tweet wasn t funny it was terrible. let me try to add something different from the conversation than what s already been said. i want to work backwards from the voters to the president, as oppose of always being so angry at the president working out to his voters. i recommend the book by brad todd called the result . these are clearly not racist americans that elected this president, but they feel very disrespected, talked down to, they feel like institutions like hollywood and the media just don t understand them. then i see roseanne bar and i
