Al Sharpton: Many in the Republican Party Have Become Captive by ‘Charismatic Con Man’ Trump

‘You’re dealing with a different kind of zeal in this Republican Party’

EXCERPT:

SHARPTON: “I think that Joe Biden has in many instances in the past been able to reach across the aisle in the Senate and as vice president, he and President Obama were able to get some things done and was not that often bending on many things but finding mid-ground. But I think that what he cannot estimate, he being President-Elect Biden, is you’re dealing with a different kind of zeal in this Republican Party now that has been put in by Donald Trump and fired up their base where many of them are afraid of their base that will not let them reach back across the aisle because they’ve become captive by a charismatic con man that has now captured the party and arrested them in place and you’re not dealing with people that are talking about healing, you’re dealing with people that want to just hold where they are and have nothing even appearing like they’re dealing with people across the aisle, let alone dealing with the citizenship that is diverse and have interest that have been treated unfairly."
