Michael Eric Dyson: Trump Talks and Thinks Like a Racist So Yeah He’s a Racist

‘Republicans were also guilty of this’

EXCERPT:

DYSON: "Yeah, the KKK — the KKK just is looking for a discount on linen, it’s not a racist organization, they just wear sheets when they get up at night and sleep walk. Here’s the problem, this kind of grievous moral equivalency between hey, they said Obama was something, they disagreed with him, they were polarized, now they’re looking at Trump, here’s a guy who called Haiti and African nations s-hole countries. Here is a guy who in 1973 as you already indicated was found in a judgment by the Department of Justice to be a discriminatory person when it came to black people.”
CAMEROTA: “Landlord.”
DYSON: “Landlord. Consistently the Central Park Five, he called for the their death and even after they were the exonerated he still said it was outrageous. The reality is that we’re talking about Neil deGrasse Tyson, he looks at stars, he looks through telescopes — is he an astrophysicist? Well, the reality is this, Donald Trump talks like a racist, thinks like a racist, makes statements like a racist, conjures emotions that give support to white supremacist and white nationalists, yeah, he’s a racist."
