WATCH: “It’s easy for us to place it all on Donald Trump’s shoulders…This is us. And if we’re going to get past this, we can’t blame it on him… Either we’re going to change or were going to do this again and again” - @esglaude w/ @NicolleDWallace

1. He's absolutely right. This was so amazing that I asked one of my kids to watch it too.

Just spot on! I think Sam Stein's addition to the conversation about the Republicans bullying the Obama admin to back down about White Supremacy was important, as were the other comments. But Professor Glaude laid it out perfectly. We need to hear the truth.

I also loved that Beto clip where he calls out the press for asking stupid fucking questions they already know the answers to just to stir the pot. WTF indeed! Real people are really dead!

Nicole's entire show, and her amazing panel yesterday, was awesome.

2. I love Eddie Glaude! I always watch a segment of a show when he is on. I look forward to his

opinion always. He is smart, level headed and deeply humanistic. I admire him.

3. We need to place it on the Republican Party's shoulders.

The Republican leadership, and the giant power blocs they're allied with, would still be there if Trump dropped dead this hour.

This did not start with Trump. It started with them, and they've been making the most of great national anxiety due to enormous changes, deliberately unmet needs, and fears for the future.

I'm now convinced they would continue growing these destabilizing hates and divisions to dangerous levels for their own purposes. Please note, aside from supporting some post-9/11 anti-terrorism laws (most live at least part time in prime targets), their complete long-term refusal to take even the most basic reasonable and proven steps to act against domestic gun violence, stop the spread of military-grade weaponry, use of media to encourage violence and mass delusions, Trump, and so on.

Pence would be probably just as effective in his own religious-zealot way both because the hard right is already primed for further accellerant and because he'd put a face on it that was much more acceptable to independent conservatives especially.
