This woman, Candace Owen was screaming at Ari Melber and Michael Eric Dyson, railed against democrats and claimed that democrats are the real racists. She loves Donald Trump and argued that he is the real friend of black Americans.

The segment devolved into a screaming shitshow.

I truly do not understand Black conservatives. I don't understand any racial or religious minority that identifies as republican. The republican party is not the friend of racial or religious minorities. They see these people in terms of stereotypes and tropes.

Candace Owen is free to have whatever political views she wants. But I can't help but wonder what brought her to Trump.

MED finally got the last word the instant before it cut off. That was almost as good as the time a few years back when Christopher Hitchens squeezed in "give him an enema and you can bury him in a shoebox" on Hannity's show, referring to evil scumbag Jerry Falwell.

She was yelling so fast that it was impossible to discern what she was saying - and what you could make out made absolutely no sense! Not only did she sound totally unhinged (Trump is helping black Americans?? ) but her inability to carry on a respectful dialog should get her banned from the airwaves for good - except maybe on FOX.

She made me think immediately of the adjective ...... IGNORANT.
It was her rude manner and her willingness to shout her negative statements that brought me to the point where i just think she is the ignorant trumper. Michael Eric Dyson was the gentleman. He never resorted to name calling like she did. She had the opportunity to present herself professionally but she chose to SCREAM AND SHOUT.

This is the full “debate” I had with ⁦@RealCandaceO⁩ tonight on ⁦@TheBeatWithAri⁩. I don’t mind folk who vigorously oppose me, but the resort to aggressive over talking to distract from utter nonsense, or to mask insufficient argument, is bad.

They are guests, both of them, & when one goes off the rails rude like she did, he should have told her, I'm gonna cut your mic if you can't be polite. And then follow through.

The one thing that comes through over & over & over again is how angry these people are. They are ANGRY!

Another DUer posted her experience as an election judge yesterday & one (white) man came in pissed off for no reason. He emanated anger at everyone. I have a cousin that way, too. How do you live like that? It must be exhausting to be pissed off all day, every day.
