more about what say those hate groups represent or wanting to have some type of ethno-state and specifically targeting members of the jewish faith, we think about the fact that the president s daughter had converted to judaism. his grandchildren are being raised in the jewish faith. so don t you think this would be a slam dunk for someone in that position to be able to address what this really means? the basis of what it really means. it s baffling that we have jewish grandchildren running around the white house and we have someone in the oval office who values with white supremacists. it s hard for us to sort this out, but as reverend blackmon said, we have this deficit and jews and muslims and christians from all denominations are actually coming together. we saw it in boston yesterday and we ve seen it around the country this week. the bottom line is this, thomas, we can t wait. we can t wait for a president
pair, if you can find one from your friends in madras. i haven t been able to score a pair yet. you got it. be very careful out there, thomas. yes, i m going to find my glasses, but i want to make sure if i don t find my glasses you can do what i m going to do, i ll switch on nbc news and msnbc tomorrow for a complete coverage of the solar eclipse. so when we return, we ll talk more about charlottesville, and the president s reaction to it. the different reactions that he had and why it s confused a lot of people and also a look at trump s personal history when it comes to race and discrimination when he was in real estate. then coming up tomorrow night at 9:00 p.m., president trump will address will nation from arlington, virginia, where he ll outline his strategy going forward in afghanistan and south asia. we ll be right back here on msnbc with more on that.
fourth largest city just in one day. this gentleman right here is jerry. he works for nasa. hi, jerry. how are you doing? jerry came by himself and sitting here reading physics today, why did you come out? saw one in 1979 and it was fantastic, and it s a life-changing experience, if you think about it. people don t realize that. you ll hear people screaming and crying and it s such an exciting thing. reporter: it is that amazing? as someone who has seen one before what is the number one tip that you ll have for people watching this time around. make sure you watch it, a lot of people want to take pictures. it only lasts 2:03. watch it safely with special glasses that are approved and the right way to go because if not, it could be a very dangerous thing. have fun, guys. thomas, i ll throw it back to you. everybody looking for those special glasses. jacob, if you can overnight me a
i feel jacked up. i m free and i have my hands back on my weaponses. some say it s bannon the barbarian and i ll crush the opposition. is the key word really opposition? anyone who is categorized as the opposition of steve bannon should be worried and that includes some people he might have considered friends in the white house? this is what i ve been thinking about the last couple of days, thomas, which is how can steve bannon and the breitbart barbarians wage a campaign against the trump white house with gary cohn or ivanka without waging a campaign against donald trump. they re advising you and duping you and manipulating you and that is the last thing that donald trump wants to hear. it seems to me that there s no way they can proceed down this path without creating a civil war within the conservative movement and within the republican party and the one thing we ve seen with the trump presidency so far is that they have enough trouble trying to do things in just the normal way.
