CNN commentators Keith Boykin and Rob Astorino got into a heated exchange over whether or not President Trump's tweets against four Democratic congresswomen should be considered racist. #CNN #News
Well the emails did prove she was incompetant, but more importantly Hillary called black youth super predators, if you supported Hillary, you're a racist
Everyone and everything is racist if someone of color doesn't agree or like what you said. Always look at an issue from both sides. Everything out of Trumps mouth is racist, because the TV said so.
Brenda Rivera You know whats a problem? Illegal immigrants. The other day in California 22 MS-13 gang members were arrested in connection to a Machete slaying in California. Guess how many were here illegally? 19 out of the 22. Dont believe me? Do some fucking research.
...and CNN host just sits there and lets them fight it off. What position do you take host, credibility or lies generated from the right? The host plays the wise person, huh!
Senator Lindsey Graham 1999 *"You don’t even have to be convicted of a crime to lose your job in this constitutional republic if this body determines that your conduct as a public official is clearly out of bounds in your role. Impeachment is not about punishment. Impeachment is about cleansing the office. Impeachment is about restoring honor and integrity to the office."*
There is racism only when there is widespread denigration and is substantially related to a well-defined ethnic characteristic, such as skin color. Words have a meaning. You will not impose Newspeak (1984).
Juan Ortiz nope bcz they just speak lies therefore they have no idea what is going on.. I’m sick of it seriously.. so when u find out what was said let me know bcz I still hv no clue what was racist about it
@@brunerbruner1360 there isn't these people are nothing but brainwashed they've allowed them self's to be hoodwinked now they see everything with a p.c view while shitting on the white man who does nothing but bendover backwards for us
Their definition? There's one definition. Show us how saying go back to your country is racist... When at the heart of this we have crazy radicals with crazy and radical policy plans that very clearly aren't thought out. It all depends on intent and since he never explicitly said his intent you'd be an ass to make an assumption. You want him to be racist to justify your anger and outrage.
@@nashonabo821 all of you Progressive socialist pigs should know the definition of racism you're the biggest racist on the face of this planet. "Some compare you to Hitler"
lawl breh I’m talking specifically about white individuals like this man in CNN’s Newscast room that is uninformed regarding what racism is and the dynamics of it.
Nail on the head! You can use the analogy perfectly to describe the president. He's a person who is uncultured, naive and lives in his own self-created bubble. It's one thing to be a person of privilege and have no experience struggling through life, never having to work with others different from yourself both socio-economically, and racially, but the difference with Donald Trump is he has so little interest in the lives of others unlike himself, he has purposefully kept himself ignorant and without empathy for those less fortunate. This is what makes it possible for his heartless and criminal immigration policies, his utter indifference to the lives of black and brown and poor people. We have to face the fact that our president has CONTEMPT for the greater majority of Americans, and his policies damage and in some cases destroy the lives of people "less than" himself. God help us all of he's re-elected, it will take generations to undo the damage and division he's wrought.
Anytime CNN brings someone on that they know will have a different opinion than their own talking heads, they make sure they have minimum 2 other people to talk him down.
Obama, Bush, Clinton ALL CAGED, and deported illegal immigrants by the HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS!!!!!! Not one of your moronic leftists were crying back then. What changed???
You have completely opposite. Trump was talking about ideology, not race. If trump said the same thing to Bernie or Warren, would it be racist ? Bernie would be going back to Russia, and in Warren case she would be going back to her local tribe. I feel sorry for the central park 5, and I remember this story, but this story was rehashed because they, the left wanted to taint trump.
Everybody on the left calls everybody on right racists. Everybody on the right calls everybody on left socialists. Hitler and Stalin Went at each other's throats the same way.
People should be asking Trump, where is my better healthcare and at a lower cost to me? Where are my lower cost prescriptions? When are you going to improve the infrastructure in my community? I know you are to busy golfing and enriching the family fortunate. People earning less than $25 per hour haven't seen a raise in their wages. When will they see a raise in wages with your tax cuts? A portion of America accepts that you are a racist but the average American heard how you were going to improve their lives when you were running in 2016 so when are you going to improve the lives of the average American?
That’s what the democrats need to be doing and stop getting distracted by this race stuff. Stay focused on policy. Every opportunity you give republicans a chance to say “they are playing the race card” they aren’t having to defend their only real accomplishment being tax cuts for the rich.
James Timlin Dems, DIDN'T vote on ANY of this, SONG BIRD McCain VOTED DOWN Trump's Healthcare DUH! WHAT you haven't heard of Right to Try and Trump voting in LOWER prescriptions DUH DUH. People earning less than $25 GOT the tax cuts and so did small business you dumb ass, in fact I don't know ANYONE that had a job paying more than min wage that didn't get a tax cut !!!!! Trump has brought in OVER 5 MILLION JOBS, TRILLIONS IN TAFAFFS MONEY and BILLIONS IN TRADE DEALS. Newsflash Trump has so much money that he gave his kids 300 MILLION EACH AND THAT WAS LONG BEFORE HE WAS POTUS. He's making ONE DOLLAR a year so HOW the hell is he enriching his family and WHEN was the LAST TIME ANYONE saw Trump golf? He's been in Asia at the summit did a deal with China worth BILLIONS he was first to step foot in North Korea and he had the military parade on the 4th. WHEN DID HE GOLF DUMB ASS? I truly don't remember, oh right he didn't even have a Christmas holiday because the Dems had their heads up their asses. ALL he dose is WORK, make money for the US Economy and KEEP HIS PROMISES you CRY BABY.! Trump gave MORE MONEY to Blacks than ANY President in HISTORY that's NOT something a racist would do libtard.
That man went to a prestigious university and I imagine he learned values that come from his parents but the sad thing is that he is defending the indefensible🤷♂️
Still is the place where dreams come true. The left.....the democrats....the party of hate....the party of slavery....the party of identity politics....the party of Jim Crow.......the party of open borders....the party of killing babies in and outside the womb....are turning this country into a nightmare. Donald Trump may be president for the next year or possible five years, but the God forsaken Democratic Party is here for far longer than that!

Racist, sexist, xenophobe, homophobe! That's all you gonna get from the crazy left if you disagree with them. They've imploded and they don't even know it.
luke sheehan, It shouldn't be that hard, I agree. Unfortunately, as sad as it is, there are some people in America that feel because they have non-pigmented skin makes them superior to those with pigmented skin. Their thought processes are quite frankly, f'd up terribly!

@@nedwalport4426 we elected Clinton a Rhode Scholar and Obama a Harvard educated law professor. Republicans elected Bush and Trump. Your party is anti-intellectual and fact free at it's core.

There's nothing to learn from history because all the many circumstances that lead to an event are never met a second time. They are peculiar to a time and place.
Racism is stereotyping a whole race of people. Telling a person to go back to their origin country if they are being unpatriotic then that is not racist.
electric man, doesn't Trump talk about Sleepy Joe Biden?? Didn't he slam Paul Ryan the other day? How about Jeb Bush, Sessions, Comey, to name a few??? They don't count, huh??
@@electricman8534 I do not. I'm not a victim, that helps me look at things rationally in context. Trump has a history of torching men and women that attack him, but the media thinks I'm supposed to get hot and bothered because he attacked a so-called minority, or female on the LEFT. I don't recall the media defending Kirstjen Nielsen after Trump fired her from DHS....... I'm Black, btw. Notice the media never assigns responsibility when it applies to Trump's critics? Lebron called Trump a "BUM", but because Bron's a so-called minority he shouldn't get checked??? Maxine Waters was screaming impeach 45 before he got in office. John Lewis refused to go to the inauguration and called him illegitimate. I can't defend their actions.The media allows anybody who dislikes Trump to act any way they please, but when Trump lights dat' ass up they resort to the democratic victim playbook.

Huh? He meant to say it! If you disagree with America first and wanting those who hate America to leave then he meant to say it to those who disagree. That’s exactly what he meant to say and exactly right!
terry fonz if we were to follow your logic, would you have been ok with telling Trump “to leave and go back to his country” during the Obama years as President when he was saying he didn’t like America or the President (Obama) during that time frame?
Rob Astorino couldn't even run an amusement park in Westchester County and spent 8 years driving the entire County into the ground financially. Why does CNN have him on as a commentor?
Papa Jose I love how they try to make it seem Trump only attacks people of color like these four when he has blasted Pelosi, Schumer, and many other white politicians etc etc etc. Race card is the only thing Dems and their media cohorts have.
@Papa Jose So we ignore the systemic issues which make people feel like "we need to take care of ourselves and fuck the rest"? I'm honestly tired of that most of both the democrats and the republicans only want to treat the symptoms and not the root cause of the issues. But sadly it's only theoretical that that would help, since in the end you have people always wanting to see others as "The Other".
Put the racial element aside for a moment. - Trump lied and said those four Congresswomen are communist. - He said that four duly elected Congresswomen hate their country "with a passion". - The President of the UNITED STATES said that, in AMERICA, if you criticize the leadership, you should leave. - The HYPOCRISY of Trump complaining about complaints is astounding. He COMPLAINS ALL THE TIME! He complains so often on Twitter that he doesn't even spell-check his tweets. How professional. He is the PRESIDENT. Even the Kardashians hire people to write and manage their Twitter accounts. Trump complains about politicians, actors, businessmen, and even SNL lampooning him. Imagine that. SNL doing sattire about the President. He is a New Yorker who has HOSTED SNL! We're talking about a man who stated that he was going to "shake things up", but he can't take criticism?? In AMERICA?!? That's bad enough. Now, add the racial element to it. - He used a classic racist trope on four ethnic minority women, telling them they should go back to their home countries. - He was extremely deceitful in that because only one of them was born, as a child, outside of the US. - Whether or not HE thinks his tweet was racist and/or wrong for other reasons, he got feedback afterward. The feedback told him that a huge number, if not a majority of people in the country he leads were offended by it. Still, he doubled down on it! - Kellyanne Conway took it even further, saying that what Trump meant by where you should go back to was the country of your ancestors! - Trump has a HISTORY of saying things just like this. When, in a normal presidency, does this kind of thing come up even once, much less a dozen times? BEFORE he was president, he was successfully sued for racial discrimination. He entered politics by going after Obama's heritage. When he announced his candidacy, he called illegal Mexicans rapists. - Leaders of race-based hate groups are praising him, and he sees NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT! The FBI sees something wrong with it. - No, it isn't "just words". Those words lead to unrest and violence. Look at Nazi Germany. Trump repeats the STALIN phrase, "enemy of the people", and domestic terrorists have since used those words to threaten news organizations. - "What about Rep. Omar's antisemetic remarks"? Those remarks criticized the greed of a COUNTRY, not a religion. They were one incident, made by a freshman Congresswoman, that WERE rebuked by members of her own party. What are people who use that line saying, anyway? That bigoted statements by public officials are okay? The gaslighting and HYPOCRISY by the Republican party is astounding. Mitch McConnell's wife, just like Ilian Omar, came to the US as a child. But when asked about that, Mcconnell launced into rhetoric about the American dream - while defending Trump! I've heard Conservatives say that because Trump hired Mcconnell's wife and Ben Carson, that's proof he isn't racist. Seriously? Furthermore, if Trump ISN'T racist, he should be appalled that racists do think he is racist. If he isn't racist, shouldn't he feel terrible that so many of his statements are taken by so many of his people AS RACIST?! Oh, yeah, he doesn't see Democrats and Americans who criticize him AS his people. He has stated that by stating that they hate America "with a passion" and should leave. The hypicrisy and gaslighting from the right is RIDICULOUS. America has a history of racial problems. The 20th Century has a history of it. Racial hate crimes are on the rise sharply since Trump took office. So, to have the nerve to gaslight, and act like we have no reason for concern is absolutely disgusting. I suggest some of you RU-vid Trump trolls take a look at some videos showing how Lindsey Graham, Ted Cruz, and Marco Rubio were describing him BEFORE Trump was elected. And I suggest you ask yourself what you would think if Hillary Clinton or a Democrat said even half of what Trump says.
Majority of Black Americans should be ashamed of themselves. You live in America and forget Africa where you came from. Believe it or not, if Africa is good, no one can be racist against Black Americans.
We better first have clear what is the definition of a racist before establishing who is a racist, in this way the discussion never brings a thing, it only devides even more.
Easy, anyone who disagrees with the left, or is a republican, or voted for Trump, or Didn't Vote for Obama... is a racist. Well If they are white and did any of those they are a racist, if they are not white they are a "blind cultist race traitor."
Wow! We can't see the trees for the forest. I can love my country and family and still have the mind to recognize when something is wrong. You can't fix what you do not recognize. This country has fed on false history and just plain falseness. We love lies more than the truth. Justice isn't blind but should be. The people are blind and shouldn't be. This country is being led by Godless people who have no desire to make things better. We cannot call any part of our history great when others are suffering and being treated less than humans. God have mercy on us!

@Joe Mullins stop lying white folk have been getting handout, since the depression, many of these programs blacks werent allowed to participate. One of the greatest lies told is the lie of America individual rugged bootstrapping settling the country
🤣😂 would be hilarious for Trump 2 come out to Congress that he now self identifies as an African American woman. Then the Democratic Party would have to, based on their beliefs, recognize him as the first woman president.
Yep. And first Transperson too!. Double whammy. And he could say he was a lesbian which is why he married 3 women. As a matter of fact checking when the gay marriage laws came into effect in NY, it might get him out of some alimony.
It is serious, good thing what Trump said wasn't racist. But it's the only argument the Democrats have left to impeach. Only reason they're doing this.
Assume the women had been originating from Norway and Trump had suggested that instead of harping on America they should go back to where they come from. Would that be a racist statement?
No. Telling a black or Latino American to go back to their own country is racist. Telling them that "their" government needs fixing first and then come back, is racist. Assuming because they are black or Latino that they are somehow not American is racist. If they were Mexican and he told them to go back to their own country it wouldn't be racist. Just like if they were Norwegian
@@karenloughrey It's still confusing but now on a more sophisticated and a little bit higher level. Let's see if we are able to sort any of this out. First some questions: You wrote that to tell a black or Latino American to go back to their own country is racist. Why? And what about telling that to a white Latino American? How can telling people that "their" government need fixing be racist? We both know that many of "their" governments are in a desperate need of getting fixed. To tell someone to see to that first and then come back and do some similar type of fixin' here (which I surmise was the point) sure doesn't make sense when it comes to American members of Congress. But I fail to see how that can constitute a racist remark. We both know without any doubt that it is clear racist assumption to presuppose that somebody is not American just because s/he is black or Latino, however, when it concerns what Trump has stated and encouraged that has never been at issue (has it?). I will be looking forward to hearing from you to get to know you take on this. Are we not missing something substantial here, some aspects that are more ground breaking? I just cannot put my finger on it. PS: If I told a neuterlized aboriginal Australian and a white Aussie, both living in the US, to go back home, would that be equally racist? .

Coach Chris Look bruh, I dont give a shit who does what with their babies. Or anything regarding politics of that matter. But what I do give a shit about, is a literal celebrity that has been elected to be the sole face and representative of what this country stands for. You can talk about economy, bring up numbers, talk about the unemployment rate, whatever floats your boat. But this man is supposed to be a leader, a role model, a symbol of unity. Yet he has done nothing to show he has any of those qualities, in fact he’s done everything to show he’s the opposite. By far the most controversial president within these last few decades, moreso than Obama and Clinton.
No, I'm not understanding why over half of white women are complicit in racism. No, sorry. I don't understand, yet, why Russia helped him win the election. Do you?

So long as Trump has supporters who stay silent... Trump will continue his racial slurs and racial attacks... Supporters should tell Trump to shut the F-UP with his stupid language and do his F-ING job... 'A good job sir... but YOU are putting US in peril out here in our neighborhoods... jackass...'
"I dont have racist bone in my body" I keep hearing Trump say that, yet i still dont understand what that even means. The facts have shown that Trump is racist & his actions have also shown he wants America to be white again & Rob if you cant see that then you really & truly are lost.
