Eddie Glaude: Trump’s ‘One of the Worst Candidates We’ve Seen Run for the Presidency’
GLAUDE: "I mean, Donald Trump perhaps -- we would have to check the historical record, but I think he is perhaps one of the worst candidates we’ve seen run for the presidency in the United -- of the United States. And I think, you know, to echo my friend Steve Schmidt, I think he represents a fundamental challenge to institutions that undergird democracy in this country. So, we’re going to see tonight, I think, in the debate whether or not Donald Trump chooses to double down as a man who has nothing to lose, since he has been saying that to the African-American community, you know, hey, what does he have to lose? Right? Will he just double down and -- and speak to his base and look beyond winning the presidency, or will he actually try to speak substantively to the issues that confront the American people?"
