Al Sharpton: What Trump Is Doing ‘Would Make George Wallace Blush’

‘George Wallace is a terrible guy’

EXCERPT:

SHARPTON: "Hogan’s statement, which he had not made this morning, is not the strongest statement. He did not call it racist. He said enough is enough. I mean, that’s not really directly taking on what Donald Trump did here. It’s like okay, kids, you all behave. No, it’s a lot deeper than that and it’s a consistent pattern and a deliberate political strategy that would make George Wallace blush, what this President’s doing. I remember as a kid, I had just become youth director of Operation Breadbasket in New York, George Wallace ran in ‘68. George Wallace didn’t do some of the things in the campaign. George Wallace was a terrible guy, stood in the door at the University of Alabama. But in the campaign, he tried to dress it up more than what we're seeing this President do."
