Elizabeth Warren Asked for Her Civil Rights Plan, Spends 6 Minutes Not Giving One

‘You know, what Donald Trump has done to stir up hate in division in this country is not accidental’

EXCERPT:

WOMAN: “Racism and discrimination have been empowered and enabled under the present administration, civil rights are threatened. Do you have a plan to undo this damage?”
WARREN: “Yes. You know, what Donald Trump has done to stir up hate in division in this country is not accidental. He actually has a strategy. And the strategy is turn people against people, because if you can turn people against people, then nobody notices what’s happening when he is lining his own pockets, when he is taking care of himself politically. And it’s every part of this. It’s white against black and brown, it’s Christian against Muslim, it’s straight against gay, and particularly trans. It’s everybody against immigrants, particularly immigrants of color. It’s all the way through the system, just whatever he can do, just throw another, lob another firecracker, see if you can start another fire, something. Because if everybody will look over there, no one will watch what’s really happening. And what’s really happening is that the corruption that was in Washington long before he got there, he did not invent the influence of money in Washington. He did not invent the corruption in Washington that he has taken to new heights.”
