I only saw part of it, but Cuomo was interviewing an undecided African American pastor who

[still_one]

voted for Jill Stein in 2016, and asked trump the question about systemic racism at last nights town hall

He was disappointed in trump and said he wouldn’t vote for trump, but wasn’t sure who he would vote for or if he would sit this one out, because “no candidate told me why I should vote for them”
Saying neither party has done anything for African Americans in 40 years

Cuomo sat there pretty much agreeing with him. When Don Lemon came on he had an exchange with Cuomo about that interview, and Don Lemon made some very important points.

Lemon first pointed out that it was very difficult for him to believe that very many people could be undecided, since from his perspective the choices could not be more clear between the two candidates. However, the key point Lemon made for that pastor who said that neither party has done anything for for the African American community, even if that was true, the Supreme Court is at stake, and other issues, and because of that, any progress that has been made with Civil Rights, and other issues could be completely undone.

1. DAMN!

[brush]

25. Looking for whoever offers the most "walking around" money no doubt.

It's disgraceful. Put you hand back in your pocket.

Nobody with any sense or knowledge of history could possibly be undecided between Biden and fucking donald trump.

[Dem2theMax]

2. How can people not understand that if they don't vote for Biden,

Trump gets four more years, and America is history?

[KatyMan]

5. Anybody that doesn't vote for Biden

Is voting for Trump as far as I'm concerned. And will be scorned and shunned accordingly.

[onecaliberal]

29. Exactly.

[Totally Tunsie]

7. Exactly. Chump would pack the Supreme Court, and

there will be consequences to pay for decades. We might not be around to feel the effects, but our children and grandchildren will.

[still_one]

9. That is what Lemon pointed out

[Totally Tunsie]

11. Thanks - I catch him in the rerun from 2-4:00.

[still_one]

15. It was at the beginning when Cuomo turns the show to Lemon, and they have a discussion between

themselves

[Totally Tunsie]

21. Good to know.

Thanks!

[Totally Tunsie]

35. Caught it. That was an interesting exchange.

[still_one]

36. I thought so too Tunsie

[sheshe2]

3. You can't cure stupid.

To add to Dons's statement, we are also in the middle of a pandemic. A pandemic that is disproportionately killing African Americans. What is he thinking!

[BigmanPigman]

6. He is NOT thinking.

I think realistically he knows what the truth is, it is his emotional self that is in denial. Is his being a pastor, or a man what is driving his emotional lack of decision?

[still_one]

12. My optimist self tells me that he will end up voting for Biden/Harris when push comes to shove

Biden will be giving a CNN town hall in Pennsylvania tomorrow, and perhaps he will tune in

[sheshe2]

16. Pastor or Man driving him?

I just don't know.

[Cha]

14. Evidently not. Don Lemon knows what's going on

The Pandemic that's Killing More African Americans that spread by trump's LIES.

The choice is Clear.. Life Or Death.. OR sit home on your GD hands & Pout.. not give one fuck about the SC, the People, the Country or the Planet.

[sheshe2]

18. Praying sure won't help.

He needs to wake the hell up, Cha.

[Cha]

22. Exactly, she.. first he votes for Jill Stein's LIES..

So he doesn't have a good record of knowing what's real & good for our country & planet.

Now after 4 years of trump he's still sold on whining about the Dems.. who have bee Fighting on the Front LINES for us since 2018!

He doesn't see that if Hillary got elected we wouldn't be going through HELL right now.

I don't know him but I have a feeling he's just using that as an excuse about the Dems doing nothing for African Americans.. who Voted Overwhelmingly for Joe Biden.

As I said in another post.. they didn't do that because they didn't think Joe was on their side.

[sheshe2]

24. So many people are disappointing me.

I don't understand their thought process at all.

[Cha]

26. I know.. And, I should say.. the Dems were Fighting

on the Front Lines for Democracy Before 2018.. it's just they were able to do more when they Won the Democratic House Victory. BLUE WAVE, Baby!

Like IMPEACH trump for being a traitor to his country.

[sheshe2]

28. If we want to live, it is what we must do.

We must.

[LuvNewcastle]

4. Some voters are too selfish to see further than

their own single issue to get out and vote. No matter who make up your group, there are members of various other groups who also support yours. So it's horrible to sit out an election when your participation could benefit some of your allies. Besides, if you want your group to benefit from a party's support, refusing to help others in the party is not the way to do it.

[Cha]

8. Sorry, but People like that Pastor make me sick.. it's

all about them. African Americans Voted Overwhelmingly for Joe Biden. They didn't do that because they didn't think he was on their side.

The pastor voted for Jill Stein's LIES.. so tell me.. WTF does he know about anything?!

[demtenjeep]

10. that should be the deciding factor in anything

4 more years of trump will give him 2 possibly 4 seats

that should terrify ANYONE



I love RGB but wish she had retired under Obama

[oasis]

13. Any jerk who enables Trump twice is an "irredeemable deplorable".

Those kind of assholes deserve every hardship which befalls them when he gets another 4 years.

[still_one]

17. Technically he still is undecided, and only ruled out voting for trump, not Biden/Harris

[oasis]

20. "If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem". nt

[qazplm135]

19. So no difference from 1960 til now?

No difference from 1980?

I'm African American and I certainly know the democratic party has not lived up to what it should be, but that's a FAR cry from pretending that both parties are the same, and there's no difference.

That's either blindness or stubborn ignorance.

[still_one]

27. +++

[JI7]

23. These "undecided voters" are mainly attention whores. If you have the time to go on political shows

and talk about politics than you should be able to read or even just a quick glance at history would show you that you are full of shit if you think there is no difference or democrats have done nothing.

Fuck That . And Fuck THem .

The true undecided voters are the "which way the wind blows" types who will go with what they think is popular at the moment but they don't follow politics that closely.

And the media enables stupidity by giving these people as much attention as they do .

[onecaliberal]

30. The democrats gave a lot of people healthcare.

The ACA is why my son and husband are alive. I’m sick of hearing both party bullshit.

[betsuni]

31. He sounds like another brainwashed victim of anti-Democratic propaganda.

Both Clinton and Obama had two years of majority control. Until Democrats have years and years of the presidency and filibuster-proof control of Congress and the result is that they pass the same policies as Republicans, then and only then should we have to hear nonsense about Democrats not doing anything for people.

[Rice4VP]

32. He asked Trump a question about when

was America great for Black people at the ABC townhall last night and he’s been on a media tour all day. He’s frustrating to listen to..especially in a swing state

[still_one]

33. That was it, thank-you

[speaknow]

34. not to

Vote is a vote for Trump! Because you
accept things the way they are!

[cwydro]

37. I saw that guy on several shows.

So much for the belief that Biden picking a black running mate will get minority voters to the polls.

If that guy can’t see how awful the buffoon is to the country,mi can’t imagine what will get him to vote. Does he not care about the environment. About climate change? About letting corporations run rampant? About health insurance? Has he heard of the Voting Rights Act?

[JI7]

40. That guy seemed like an attention seeking troll.

When he started talking about lesser of two evils I knew he was full of shit.

[Chili]

38. don't start me

(I have to go to bed )

But I really hate that what-have-they-done-for-me-lately argument that makes someone not vote. ESPECIALLY NOW.

Good grief.

I heard Lemon's comments, and I nodded and pointed at the TV when he said it. I'm one of those black women who say GET OUT THERE AND F*CKING VOTE DAMMIT! No excuses, no oh-my-conscience. "maybe I'll vote 3rd party!" when this racist fascist and his psychopathic lunatic QAnon Klan quackheads want you DEAD.

[live love laugh]
