During Jim Crow blacks couldnt vote
Exactly, WTF is he talking about??
@BeeN-fy2jh Education is important... mass incarceration, red lining, etc are the main cause of broken families... heck, families were more "together" during slavery... still not a good thing.
This is in accurate you go look up the 15th amendment
And before you go “it was for men” women weren’t even allowed to vote at the time that came with the 19th amendment
Just let that sink in. [FYI WHITE FOLKS IN SOUTHERN STATES ARE THE LARGEST GROUP ON WELFARE MR DONALDS]
During Jim Crow, the entire black community was oppressed so they stuck together and fought back for liberty. 🇺🇸
And that was his point that flew over everybody’s head and all they heard was Jim Crow better 😂 outrage cry cry cry
I'm 69, and that is true.
@datthebigboss4532 they didn't have a fucking choice. So all of our free will should be stripped away because people are leaving toxic situations. His mother was able to be a single parent and raised him and his sibling without a man. Why should a black woman be forced to have a man.
@@datthebigboss4532 you want to go back to those days? 😄
And than reagan came into power and flooded the community with Crack. They had no choice but to stick together, Tulsa Oklahoma was constantly happening in their communitys. Everytime black towns saw any growth and prosperity the other side didnt want to see none of it. So how were they better. Their better now becuase their is black wealth in the US and now they don't have too worry about getting pitch fork.
Weird! There was NO sensible reason to make an alignment with Jim Crow.
That's been my point in this discussion. Abby did a much better job addressing this topic with him than Al Sharpton or other people who interviewed him. I think he sounds like white people who 'know what's best for us' instead of relating to our experiences and speaking from there.
Referring to a time when black fathers were in the home. Black boys today grow up without fathers and it’s a real problem.
That smirk on her face when he said he’s one of the better communicators in the rep party 😂
he is.

Conservative hypocrisy knows NO limits!!!
Lol unbelievable. The tolerant ones aren't tolerant of people who they don't agree with. You're bringing up him marrying someone who isn't black but you're not racist right? Why does it matter who he married. Liberals are some of the most racist people in the US.
I'm confused. I assumed his children were Black. Are they not?
That explains it!
@@tanyafrida7380 don't say black family when it's not
Byron Donald said it and meant it. Jim Crow era was never better for blacks.
He never said it was. Stop the BS!
@@user-zw2gq2bw2k He ensinuated that it was
He referenced the time line as the Crow era. during that era the Father stayed in the family. since 1968 the black Father has declined dramatically. look at the facts.
Yeah the current era is much better lolol
@@wyattdoc9473His ridiculous comment was meant to diminish the effects of Jim Crow. He's trying to please his racist white nationalist Masters.
Why would Jim Crow ever come out of his mouth at all?!
Trumpism the cult of IGNORANCE, HATE,XENOPHOBIA, HEGEMONY
Lack of self respect
Lack of awareness ìf his own culture...Lack of self reflection
Jim Crow was horrible for black people. I’m so sick of him and Tim Scott.
both were born with the a bootlicking gene its their nature to be that way
When did he say it was great, pls tell me exactly when he said that!
He simply said during even such a tough time, black families were together and we didnt have rampant single mothers
🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Comprehension skills are 💩💩💩
Q: What do Stalin, Hitler, Mao, and Biden all have in common?
A: They all arrested their political enemies!

They always use your own people to confront you.
You could have made ANY point without using the words Jim Crow!!!!
So you admit that the message would be the same with our without the term? If so, the outrage is just semantics. Which is totally dictated by the outraged people because to originator of the comment meant only one thing and you guys are puttiing your own meanings upon it.
@@regenen Go back to bed!! I'm admitting nothing!! That term,just like the confederate flag, are offensive and remind the people of color the hardships their ancestors had to endure in a "free" country!
This is what it looks like when you sell your soul for money and power.
no, this is what it looks like when liberals hate that they can't control a black man from having his own opinion.
Yes. He'll be used by trump like Powell was used by Bush.
How dumb you must be in person
To ensure your child is not told they can change gender ans the parenr cant deny them ir they could be legally charged?
Are you serious?? This interview proves why blacks should NOT support the Democratic Party but you people are brainwashed!!!! Jim Crow joe!! My my myyy it’s so sad to see
He may not have said Black people were better off during ' Jim Crow ' but it was strongly implied...
No. It was not. He only said more Black people were married and stayed together. That fact does not lead, inherently, to Black people being better off.
And that's what he's still (insisting on) implying.
You think! Donld's is a jackass! He might as well take out a full-page editorial in the Wall Street Journal about his backwards views on our experience during the Jim Crow era!
I feel sorry for his children! They are Black, and they and their children will have to find out about racism in America the hard way: by first-hand experience!
Pls how was it implied?
He made the connection to black families and Jim Crow to appeal to his constituents and the Dump. That ish backfired bc he was not selected as Dump’s VP😂😂
Excellent journalism Abby!💯
How desperate or stupid do you have to be to reference what a party represented 60 or more years ago as a reason to vote for you instead of what it's doing right now.
The democrats do it all the time. Literally bring up FDR and the new deal all the time, but no only the Dems could be miss represented. Give me a break.
IDK but the damage from the democrat policy is still felt today, and the majority of black people still vote democrat. I guess the new democrat plantation is voluntary. As Joe Biden said if you don't vote for me you ain't black.
The democrats are in panic mode. They know trump is winning so they’re election interfering by making up fake charges to attack him with hoping that he doesn’t make it to the White House again🤣
🤣 Not sure... but they're always trying! C'mon man! Definitely vote for the party who supports the values and changes you yourself support. Once you look at the facts it's fairly obvious, unfortunately most just go off emotions rather than reality😉
Well I like cheap gas cheap groceries no men in woman sports no wars so I'll deff vote for the fellon over the jack ass
The fact that he supports Trump is all thats needed to know.
Doesnt matter what else he says.
Exactly, everything else is irrelevant. SMH
How about the people that support Jim Crow Joe(AKA Biden)?
Now you heard the tape and he didn't say what they say he said so now you changed it to Trump. See how y'all operate? Smh
Yeah shows he cares about this country and he's a patrick
Well, that was an erudite response.
They had to stick together to avoid the lynching. Florida had over 295 lynching.
He's an idiot for taking it there, we have those within our people just high nosing it, they dont know their people jist like this dude
The most significant thing that you said, Congressman is that YOU WEREN'T THERE. P.S.: the black family being together had nothing to do with Jim Crow. Apples & Oranges, brother.
As a politician in America, never use slavery or Jim Crow for analogy. Period.
He's not that bright. 🥴
Unless you're condemning it
He didn't lol yall are slow
Then deny history and your manhood...!?!!?? Stand 10 toes down on Business- Black business equally...Speak to Truths not "Feel good Conversation"...
He isn't wrong though. Prove me how he is wrong. Do your own research. There's a reason it's a red wave this year
Totally unacceptable. A person would literally be canceled even suggesting that Jews were better under the Holocaust , because they were more together.
Except that’s not what he said.
Dude you sound like a professional victim. He said black families were together more back then. And it’s true . There was less single parent households and there were more marriages. Welfare was a direct attack on that. And he made it clear
@@justinmathis7707so to your logic The Holocaust made more Jews be together
@@justinmathis7707 That may be his point but he's not explaining or defending himself very well.
@@edgeworldpictures6831 my guy he already explained himself but people are not wanting to listen. Nothing he said was wrong all she did was strawman his statements. “The parties switched ideologies” is a myth. I used to believe but it’s not true. LBJ said himself that he only wanted to give “just enough” to the black community in order to make it feel like they did something. And he said “I’ll have those n*****s voting democrat for the next 200 years.
It was President Eisenhower, who drew up the legislation that LBJ signed into law
I liked Abby before, and I love Abby now!!! Make them stick to ALL the facts! Thank you Queen!
Blacks voted Republican during Jim Crow because the parties flipped. Southern strategy. He’s the worst kind of apologist or completely ignorant.
Tell me who switched?
The only Switch that happened was Black folks going to the Democrat party for the Welfare policies. The ideologies of the parties were still the same!

Actually he is right. Do your own research. Black families were closer back then
You learn from the family you come from not the one you make. His family is black, he has two black parents and he clearly was referencing the black family he came from. Is he not black?
Exactly!!!
Do you people realize how racist you are???
So you are only black if your "pure" black?

byron donalds: what's the matter boss? we sick?
It appears that Donald's Byron is the epitome of the arrogance of ignorance
Byron is a player. There is a huge market in giving MAGA what they want. I recall black men in the 60s exclaiming, "I am the only one on my job."
Super arrogant and ignorant!!! I feel sorry for his black children! They will find out soon enough!!
What did he say that was wrong?
I'm not a fan of Donald's but he has a point. That was pretty deceptive of Hakeem Jefferies to just insinuate that he said, "families were better off under Jim Crow." At some point you gotta acknowledge facts, and not just go along with something because your political team is saying it. You same people love to rail on Republican's just believing anything Trump spews from his mouth when in reality some of you democrat supporters are equally as bad.
Byron donaldson is actually 100 percent correct anyone that knows the facts of history would agree and I am a black man with vast knowledge of black history do ur research
Byron Donald is shameful.
Byron Donald you're an embarrassing and shameful and also your uncle tim Scott.What are you doing for middle class and the poor not nothing.
Delusional.

No he's not. He just doesn't bow to the left agenda. That's your problem.
As a black man yes he is
Volume does NOT constitute an argument Rep. Donalds. Quit trying to bully the interviewer! You said it...own it!

@@vg1024 He is an immigrant. He nor his family lived/fought/survived Jim Crow or being enslaved in this country. He has no lineage in this soil. He is not like us.
He even said from personal experience his own father WASNT in the home so that’s why he’s PUSHING for black families to STAY together no matter what it is. The benefit of black fathers being in the home and with generational wealth!!!!! 💯💯💯 2:32
Can Abby or any of these CNN hosts ever simply ask, what the hell are you taking about?
She's actually smart by cutting him off. She's keeping the conversation on track, and forcing him to actually answer specific questions that he keeps trying to dodge, and then when he starts spewing obvious bullshit, she forces him back on track again.
A lot of history is a combination of ignorance, told by those who won and mostly speculation. It’s a fact, if you have any common sense when you have a family, you think more conservatively. And yes, unemployment is low now, but when everything cost a fortune, it doesn’t really matter. That’s BS that minorities are doing better under Biden.

I fukkn hate the media.
There are times when people speak and end up putting their foot in their mouth. For Byron Donalds, this was one of those times.
NO WAY WILL TRUMP PICK A BLACK MAN FOR HIS VP PICK ! PERIOD!!
Even if , is a show off, it means nothi g to him, cos he will claim all the power for himsrlf ,while cursing the black person at his back.., is all about himself, no one else, not even his wife or kids.
He’s trying ever so hard!
Why wouldn't he? I mean Trumps been rocking with blacks for decades( was even considered for an naacp award at one time). I'd never even heard about the dude being a racist until he ran for president for some strange reason.
TRUMP WILL DO anything to win..snakes don't care who they bite ijs

It wouldn't have, his wife is white.
I'll leave this right here.
He is an idiot.
@@akellypaschal5905 That is not a surprise. When you are a uncle you need the right drip
If you heard what he said and that is how you interpreted that.. then you have low communicative interpretation skills. Donalds only used Jim Crow as time placement in what he was talking about regarding his personal family.. the Democrats and media like they always do is lie about what a Republican actually says. It is a fact though that Black Families remained a nuclear family vs after LBJ's policies that is all he said.
Great job Abby, you can whole your own. You go girl. You shut his ass down in every way.
His only mistake was assuming that Liberals wouldn't stoop to any lows to just completely derail the point.
As a black man, it pained me to see Abby try to force my brother to be truthful. I have no problem with Donalds being a Republican; he’s not the first and he won’t be the last. But he doesn’t have to sugarcoat history in order to be conservative. And if that’s what “they” force him to say in order to get campaign funds, then he needs to leave the party.
At the same time, blacks who are Dems need to stop sugarcoating history of the Dems. Malcolm spoke candidly about them in the 1960s and one might argue that little has changed.
@@sakkysha5496 I agree that the Democrats are not perfect either in their positions regarding us. But I can’t say that only a little has changed. The civil rights acts and voting rights acts were major updates to the country’s treatment of blacks. Are we in a perfect place yet? Absolutely not. But the legislation passed in the 1960s was necessary for us to even have this conversation out in the open. And the Democrats (for their own political purposes) were the ones to push the legislation forward. That’s just a fact.
@@matthew223740 And now you're lying. Democrats filibustered the bill for months. It was Republicans who pushed it through.
The point is, Jim Crow was a terrible damn time in American history for black people, and they couldn't even vote at that time. I'm also tired of repubs like him constantly bashing any policies by the dems that actually did help black people---especially since the repubs haven't really come up with a damn thing that actually has helped black people or anybody else, recently. And both parties did switch their platforms in 1964 when the Civil Right Bill was passed. The dems became the party of the working-class, while the repubs became the party of big business and the rich. That's still the case today. Also, welfare was actually started in 1935 during the depression mainly for white widows and their children---it was not started for black people at all. And McDonald is lying claiming
Idk why Abby keeps bringing this guy on her show. He sold his soul. He’s a MAGA puppet
There's something seriously wrong with that man
She is very ignorant. I can definitely understand how he could be misunderstood. But she is trying to bait him. And she is desperately trying to disrespect him.
Recommend looking at the statistics of the many black families in the US around that time as well as asking families from various parts of the country and their marriage mindset.
You would see that the common belief was family unit. I.e. malcom x and Betty Shabazz. Marriage was more common then divorce or separation
@AGMalone1
You are so wrong, it's verging on ridiculous. But what's displayed here is the game play of Democrats. All he said is pointing out the fact that there was a time in the past that black families thrived. A time when fathers were at home almost in all black families. Then in order to specify what period could be taken as an example, he pointed to when Jim crow policies were ongoing. He was not crediting jim crow, neither was he saying it benefited anyone among African Americans. He only mentioned jim crow to specify a time frame. The unfortunate thing is that this woman understands exactly what he said, but feigns ignorance in order to pull this useless stunt.
No... it is the blacks who voted for him who are seriously wrong
@@jaggedlotus3567
If you call her very ignorant what about your mama?
Your right that blacks like all Races on the spectrum practiced marriage as a tradition. BUT and I say respectfully.
They did not vote conservatively at all because even with the 1889 15th Ammendment guarantee to vote whites did everything they had in their power to deny them the vote.🗳
The 13th Ammendment loophole to slavery said only convicted felons couldn't vote.( overnight we all became convicts and couldn t vote.🗳
The Klan burned 🔥 down voting house all over the South. Black percentages dropped to 2 and 3 percent. Couldn't vote 🗳
Illiterate Blacks were given literacy tests on the constitution ( how could illiterate black people who it was illegal to educate pass these tests? They couldn't.
Illiterate whites could because their grandfather's had voted in past elections. We couldn't qualify for the vote 🗳
It wasn't til the 1965 voting rights act signed by Kennedy enforced the 15th Ammendment almost 100 yrs later.
So my question is how could marginalized married black folks support their families, build generational wealth, and protect their political interests with all those stumbling blocks crucified them every step of the way.
That's the real issue here not the married black families during Jim Crow. It's the results we still suffer from today hampering any efforts made to be treated equally.
Peace ✌️
Prices are up because of corporate price gouging. During the pandemic, prices increased because of supply chain issues. Once the supply chain returned to pre-pandemic levels, corporations kept their prices high. Many of them also decreased the size of their containers ("shrink-flation").
Facts! Not sure why the Dems aren't calling these Corps. out to the people on why costs are really high.
The greed of Corporate America is what is driving the inflation not Biden!
What McDonald said about black families being together during Jim Crow is some bullshit. Especially given what black people were actually going through during that period of history. They damn sure weren't together because of Jim Crow, or because they voted republican, because if they lived in the south, they didn't have the right to vote any way. He
Say it again for the people in the back!
Absolutely, true. The Republicans like Donalds know their base to too ignorant understand the impact of the pandemic on the world economy and the rampant corporate greed made possible by GOP policies, so they just tell the MAGA zombies that Pres. Biden is responsible for all their pain.

Nothing is the same. But the ideological inclination has not changed as much. Republicans remain right leaning and the Democrats right leaning other development notwithstanding.
agreed, the republicans are less of the religious zealots, this new MAGA/republicans are less warhawks and more populist. This new democrat..eh seem to be a little less racist, just low expectation racist and a lot more authoritarian/fascist. The trick is the new planation sorta speak seems to be voluntary and the black community seems to be unaware they are still on it. No other race is as lope sided for a political party than the black community. As Joe Biden said "if you have trouble figuring out to vote for me or the other guy then you ain't black".

Coach whistle? He grabbed the whole ferry blare horn.
Exactly what I said....dog whistle, but way louder
Dang, she is good at this! He was physically shaken.
So didn’t he just say that the Jim Crow era was a great society. When she ask him “DO YOU AGREE THAT THINGS ARE BETTER NOW THEN DURING THE JIM CROW ERA?! He said “YES”. So now he’s back peddling, cause didn’t he just say it was a great society back then compared to now 😂
If delusional had a face 🤡
Omgosh is this guy for real? Maybe the black family stayed together because black families had little else but each other. Voting was not all that easy, back in the day
That's the point he was making. More than 60% of families were together even during Jim Crow. Now it's less than 25%, thanks to Democrats' welfarism which subsidized single motherhood.
Wait did he mention he wanted to be a Criminal? This guy lying again. He really think that he as a legitimate shop to be Trump VP? That guy stuck on stupid .
@pam18ram, African-Americans weren't giving the right to vote until 1965. However, it's Florida State Representative Byron Donalds, party affiliate that has stripped "The Voting Rights Act" of "Chapter 5" by way of the Supreme Court (mostly conservative judges) allowing gerrymandering, voter suppression, & allowing conservatives judges to purge votes who were chose by the conservative in the White House back in 2013. It's those little things he's not telling people during the interview on Ms. Abby Phillip show. 📺
Blacks weren't destitute in the Civil Rights era lol
Jim Crow didn’t involve black folks voting. Let alone conservative. Byron is FOS
Why on earth could they not asked him about the economic devastation situation that Donald Trump left behind as a result of the way he handled the Pandemic 😷?
For God sake have you all forgotten already?
I usually like Abby. However, she didn't do well here. She never asked for evidence to support any of his statements. How did current policies cause inflation, for example? Which policy of this administration directly led to broken families? In addition, if black families are currently rebounding, why isn't Biden being given the credit for it happening on his watch? He's credited for everything negative that happens. Why not the positive?
Which country did better on economy than U.S. during pandemic?
what pandemic? Jan 6th was just a bunch of peaceful protesters and tourists. The ignorance is not an accident
He would have just lied about it. She still should have asked, but it wouldn’t have amounted to anything.
What ? Trump didn't start COVID china did and economic problems began becuz of jobs shut down and then bidens war on energy stop drilling and limit supply to increase cost
Has nothing to do with it once Jim Crow came out his mouth. He did so sad family was more together during Jim Crow. He said that out of his mouth.
I’m not African American, so I understand fully what this man said. I got the message, if you didn’t get the message, then it was meant for you. 🇭🇹
Stop interviewing the wrong people, giving them airtime. Stop.
No PLEASE CONTINUE. We can be like a sporting event. Let's go to the clip.
I’m glad she did so he could speak truth
She gave it to him tho
I agree…That’s the issue….
Truth hurts doesn't it, that everyone is suffering due to high prices and a bad economy. It is not like it is a secret, only Joe wants to make everyone believe it is.😜
During Jim Crow, a lot of our black fathers got lynched
YUP
The fact that he said that screams ignorance to American history and the context for which these things occurred. Jesus help these people who want to so much to be important!
Imagine being a black vet returning from war and not being able to wear your uniform in public.
This black man would be the butler...😮😮
You give him ENTIRELY too much credit. This black man would be a slave tracker! He over here, massa, over here!
@@truth2power463 😄 🤣 true
And she would be the in house made
You CNN watching white lefties always show your true racist colors.
You commenters disappoint me (as a black man).
I'm tired of politicians.
Don't knock poor poor Abby she only dreams of being one!
FOR THOSE that don't understand what BRYON DONALD'S meant ,then you might suffer from SELECTIVE HEARING 😂 #BD
Did CNN block her from simply asking him to explain why he used the phrase "Jim Crow" instead of specifying a timeframe, such as 1920s-1960s? For any person in leadership in this country to suggest that life in almost any capacity was better for black people "during Jim Crow" literally makes no sense.
What a disingenuous demonstration by this guy. Sick of him and Tim Scott's "never answering a question -ss."
Watch Joy Reid's interview with Donalds.
And don’t forget Clarence Thomas, they are in the same mine set and all three are married to white women.
No Mrs Virtuous...Go back & listen to it multiple times on .75 speed eer something, cuz he has explained w/ context WHAT HE SAID & WHAT HE MEANT. Catch up K...
I am a Black Republican woman of 70 times around the sun, (the new way to say 70 years old), who supports Donald Trump whole heartedly. I voted for him in 2020 and will vote for him again in November. Black Democrats please hear me out.
Mr. Donalds, I believe that you made a HUGE mistake in your use of the words "Jim Crow." Using that term to articulate your position that this was a better time for black families because we saw a greater number of black families enjoying both parents in the house, was totally lost in your description of the times you were referring to. It would have been better to say the "decades of..." rather than "during Jim Crow..." Those times of Jim Crow were wrought with systemic racism and that's all that most Blacks will equate those times to.
As my deceased mother used to say to people, "you really blew it this time."
It's not likely that you brought ANY Black Democrats to the Republican ticket with that choice of words. It only sounded like you think that those times were better time for Blacks and that we need to go back to Jim Crow again. I know that that's not what you said, but that's how it came off sounding. Listen to yourself again.
I have always admired and agreed with your positions on every issue I've heard you speak on and your support of Donald Trump. You are obviously intelligent and articulate, but these poor choice of words again, did not win Donald Trump any votes among Black Democrats in my opinion. It only most likely solidified Black Democrats to their already long held view that Donald Trump is a racist, and I think that at one time he was, but I don't believe that he holds that belief system anymore. People do change and that's what matters.
Getting back to your use of inadvertently sounding like you support Jim Crow, I hate to say this but you sounded like the so called "house ni___ers" of the old Southern plantations. I know that you didn't mean to come off sounding like that and that's just my opinion.
Of course, I do not align with Al Sharpton's positions on anything nor even ever watch CNN. I just came across this from hearing podcaster Ron Yates mention it. However, in this case, I must side with Al Sharpton. Also, Al Sharpton is still your elder and you were not very respectful. Did I hear that you called him "thick headed"? If not, I stand corrected.
In closing, I think that you should consider making a retraction and explain that you did not support the perilous times for Black people under Jim Crow, and in retrospect, could have used a better choice of words to represent the time period that you were referencing in terms of describing how there were more two parent Black families instead of using such emotionally charged words as "Jim Crow".
Last but not least, you sounded condescending in talking to this beautiful Black hostess on CNN. She held her own against you, and good for her. You might win more Black Democrats by trying to be a bit more humble in your delivery and you might not come across as sounding so arrogant. I am not trying to judge you, but we can't afford to lose potential Black voters this late in the game by unwittingly antagonizing potential Black voters. You have a very broad outreach and, using the wrong choice of words can cost us votes. It's not only about the vote, but we are coming down to the wire and we sure as hell don't need another 4 years of Joe Biden, parish the thought. People in your position don't want to say things that can be misconstrued. I understand you are in the ring of potential Vice President considerations. Congratulations on that achievement. Otherwise, keep up the good work.
CNN, please send this to Mr. Donald's. Thank you.
Yeah, no. He speaks facts. But he never really gets to any point...
It is evident he has no historical awareness of what Jim Crow is, and what it meant for the Black family. Yikes.
Said a fool. Statistically they had more family units, were Christian and owned their own things. Was it ideal? No. Did they actually prosper? Yes.
He married a white woman. Under Jim Crow that was illegal and he probably would have been put in jail for even talking to her.
What? How did you get that from what he said?
Lol you need to re-watch what he said in the video played, before the so called journalist started arguing with him.
You're too ignorant and short-sighted to understand what he's saying. Let's just pretend to be pro-black but they're really not, they're only pro-black if you're a Democrat. That's why Biden said "if you don't know if you're for me or Trump, you ain't Black".
He just explained eloquently the period he previously referred to as Jim Crow, without mention of Jim Crow. The question is why didn’t he do that in the first place? The answer is he has a base and a leader to appease.
"Now he didn't exactly say that in the clip", but I'm gonna accuse him of saying it anyway
My god. This guy’s penchant for bloviating is empirically insane.
Because she called him on some (not all) of his lies.
😂
Oh you beat me your comment is more eloquent than mine!!! Love it
Yes! Beautifully stated!
And your usage of the smartly & bigley words is overtly expressing your superbness!
Abby gave this “BOY” a history lesson
OMG your the only one in the room who would think poor poor Abby could give anyone a history lesson...
She did. Love how she handled him.
Look another racist from the party member of peace and tolerance.
Lol
Not sure we watched the same video....All she did is interrupt and gas-light. Had she let him speak and expand SHE would have received a lesson. That's for sure. Good luck with Biden. Hopefully you'll see the light, but I'm afraid it might be too late for this country by then....
@@FedericoGPena He is an immigrant. He nor his family lived/fought/survived Jim Crow or being enslaved in this country. He has no lineage in this soil. He is not like us.
Why is he even mentioning Jim Crow being a randomly positive note or era for black people?
How many times does he have to explain it to these people? it’s not his responsibility to make them understand.
Marriage rates doesn't mean staying together. Doesn't mean the family situation was better.
The democrats are in panic mode. They know trump is winning so they’re election interfering by making up fake charges to attack him with hoping that he doesn’t make it to the White House again🤣
People on the right( him for instance) don't understand nuance or exceptions.
@@Cp_k37Copy/ paste troll. 😅
Right. A lot of folks get married just for the pageantry and the reception
30 percent of children in parent homes live in poverty, while less than 10 percent of children living in two parent homes live in poverty. Children who live in single parent homes are much more likely to live in poverty. Your comment factually makes no sense.
Mr. Bojangles - He tap dances for massa like no other lol. The crazy part is that alot of black families/people are conservative, but will never join or vote republican because of this kind of nonsense. He could have easily made his point without invoking Jim Crow several times, but he has massa's he answers to.
Democrats are your "massa."
Yep, it appears he was given that talking point and it blew up in his face.
Excellent point!! I’m a conservative minded independent blk American but man I just can’t bring myself to vote for any of todays republicans. Every time I think ok an even-keeled republican I can get behind they turn goofy 🙄 and with the loonies on the left I just don’t know what to do 😂😂
Well sir you say your a great communicator, but yet you're not aware, that black people couldn't vote back then. "Voted more conservatively" SMH
Way to go, Abby! ❤
So when women weren't allowed to rent an apartment on their own, more families were together.
Yes because the woman was literally forced to stay.... nowhere else to go.
Is that what he wants?
Honestly? I think he, specifically, would want that.
I'm always stunned by how recent certain changes were, like in the 70's when they made it legal for women to get their own credit cards. He doesn't say "happy families." He says "families" like they are just a statistic.
he is a liar he married to a white woman.
I think the entire GOP wants that.
Thank God you now have the freedom to leave your family
Yes that IS what he wants. That is what the entire GOP wants.
Prices are up because rich people are price gouging
And don't forget the lefts ultra chilling effects over FFuels & energy markets, proposed EV mandates, overspending etc etc...These did a number on us over the past 3.5 yrs...
... because of TRAUMA 🙄🙄😒
