Trump, immigrants poisoning the blood of our country. That's the latest. During a rally in New Hampshire, Donald Trump made some more incendiary comments towards immigrants. Watch, listen. >> Country, when they do that, we got a lot of work to do. [00:00:16] [INAUDIBLE] >> They're poisoning the blood of our country. That's what they've done. They poison mental institutions and prisons all over the world. Not just in South America, not just the three or four countries that we think about, but all over the world. They're coming into our country from Africa, from Asia, all over the world. [00:00:35] They're pouring into our country. Nobody's even looking at them. They just come in. The crime is going to be tremendous. The terrorism is going to be, and we built a tremendous piece of the wall. >> Speaker 1: And so there you heard it. But he wasn't done. [00:00:50] Okay, let's drive home the point. That's what you do when you're Donald Trump under multiple indictments. Trump then repeated the use of, quote, poisoning in a post on his social media website, truth social. Saying overnight in all caps posts that illegal immigration is poisoning [00:01:08] the blood of our nation. They're coming from prisons, from mental institutions from all over the world, sounds familiar. Now it should sound familiar not just because that then prospective candidate was coming down an escalator uttering that kind of rhetoric. [00:01:28] But because the term blood poisoning was used by, that's right, Hitler, the mustache in his manifesto. Ming Kemp I'm sure the senator will correct me on the pronunciation. I didn't bother to learn it because, well, we know what Hitler stands for. [00:01:47] But it is true that you do need to know your history and we should all be learning more about it. In which he criticized immigration and the mixing of races. All great cultures of the past perished only because the originally created race died out from blood poisoning, Hitler wrote. [00:02:04] Biden campaign released a statement criticizing Trump's remarks. Donald Trump channeled his role models as he parroted Adolf Hitler phrase. Kim Jong Un quoted Vladimir Putin while running for president on promise to rule as a dictator and threaten American democracy. [00:02:21] Trump is not shying away from his plan to lock up millions of people into detention camps. And continues to lie about that time when Joe Biden obliterated him by over 7 million votes three years ago. That from the Biden campaign, NBC News delivering it. [00:02:39] There's also been responses from other GOP members. Here's what Senator Lindsey Graham had to say when asked about it. >> Speaker 3: Anytime. >> Speaker 4: Just on the language, though, I wannna get your response. You have endorsed former President Trump. Are you comfortable with him using words like that, [00:02:56] >> We're talking about language. I could care less what language people use as long as we get it right. >> Speaker 3: Even if, >> I believe in legal immigration. I have no animosity toward people trying to come to our country. [00:03:12] I have animosity against terrorists and against drug dealers. >> Speaker 4: Do you think he would appeal to more people, though, if he chose different words on that argument? >> Speaker 3: I think the president has a way of talking sometimes I disagree with, but he actually delivered on the border. [00:03:27] People are looking for results. If the only thing you wanna talk about on immigration is the way Donald Trump talks, you're missing a lot. >> Speaker 4: Just finally, is it the position of the Republican party, that African and Asian immigrants are poisoning the blood of the people in this country? >> Speaker 3: No, it's the position of the Republican party that we've lost control [00:03:45] of the border. That terrorists are coming, that there's never been a higher threat to the United States from a terrorist attack from a broken border. >> Speaker 1: Well, a dictatorship is a threat. And by the way, we were talking about Hitler, weren't we? Let's hear what the Republican for [00:04:02] President Chris Christie had to say about this. He commented, too. >> Speaker 5: He's disgusting. And what he's doing is dog whistling to Americans who feel absolutely under stress. And strain from the economy and from the conflicts around the world. [00:04:21] And he's dog whistling it to blame it on people from areas that don't look like us. And look, Jake, the other problem with this is the Republicans who are saying this is okay. Almost 100 members of Congress who have endorsed him. Nikki Haley, who this week said he is fit to be president. [00:04:41] You're telling me that someone who says that immigrants are poisoning the blood of this country. Someone who says Vladimir Putin is a character witness, is fit to be president of the United States. Was the right president at the right time. Nikki Haley should be ashamed of herself. [00:04:57] And she's part of the problem because she's enabling him. She's enabling him by saying to people, it's okay. Let me be really clear. I'm in this race to let people know it's not okay. It's not okay for an American president to be saying these things. [00:05:13] >> Speaker 1: And yet Chris Christie is not resonating. Not resonating with Republican voters. Senator, we can't even get to the part where we chase Chris Christie's record. The part where he was aligned with Donald Trump, who did come down that escalator. [00:05:29] Was saying racist things, never stopped saying racist things, because right there, the bar is so low. Chris Christie knew to say, this is disgusting. You are stealing from Hitler. You're plagiarizing Hitler, and that's disgusting. [00:05:45] He's right, though, about these other candidates. But what about the electorate? Who could care less about apparently Hitler? >> Speaker 6: Yeah, Sharon. I mean, most of what Chris Christie said I agree with. But you're right. We can't even get to unpacking his baggage because the bar is very low. [00:06:05] So I want to take people back just a little bit. I'm not so sure that I necessarily agree with the comparison that the White House did of Hitler only because, and only because of this. Trump is ridiculous in every sense of the word. All this nonsense he's talking, people coming from Asia and Africa. [00:06:22] Notice it's Asia and Africa. He didn't say anything about European immigrants to this country. So let me just school some folks. Everybody in this damn country traces their ancestors for the most part, like, 99%. You're gonna trace your ancestors to some other country, [00:06:38] with the exception of indigenous people, all right. And I'm gonna put an asterisk in there for american descendants of enslaved people, all right. The asterisk there is that those descendants didn't come here voluntarily. [00:06:53] They were forced to come here. So the indigenous people and the people whose ancestors were forced to come here to be chattel slaves, those are the exceptions. Everybody else, your ancestors came here. You ain't original. Donald Trump got some damn nerves. [00:07:10] His damn wife is an immigrant, for God's sakes. But you know why he didn't? Because he named anybody from Europe. Sharon the reason why we have to be careful with comparing him to Hitler. Hitler exercised pure, unadulterated genocide, okay. [00:07:26] So we gotta be careful with that. Another reason why we gotta be careful is because in this country, through policies. This country discriminated against every other kind of immigrant, with the exception of European immigrants from the West. [00:07:44] And Northern parts of Europe. Hello, somebody I'm gonna unpack this for them, Sharon, because I want them to go back and look this stuff up. So early immigration laws in this country. So what Donald Trump is parroting more than Hitler cuz, see, they trying to be spicy with that. [00:07:59] Don't play games with it. Just call the man out, but don't play games with the Hitler stuff. We should be very careful with that. What he is parroting is the policies of this damn country, which people wanna pretend it didn't happen. So I'm gonna unpack this for folks. 1790, the Naturalization Act of 1790 excluded nonwhite [00:08:17] people from eligibility to be naturalized citizens in this country. In order to become a naturalized citizen in this country in 1790, you had to have two years worth of residency in the United States. You had to be of good moral character. [00:08:33] Who the hell judges that this whole country was not of good moral character. Because of the enslavement of African American Africans and then their descendants. I'll put that in the parking lot. Then the last one Sharon, you must be a free white person. So what Trump is parroting is the policies of this damn country, and [00:08:51] it makes people uncomfortable to tell that kind of truth. Let me keep on going the Naturalization Act of 1795, you had to have five year residency. The Naturalization act of 1798 said, the hell with you. You got to be a resident here 14 years. [00:09:06] And then the Naturalization act of 1802 took it back to five years. There was a series of restrictions. If we look at 1875, no criminals. Okay, I can understand that. If, you know, people coming over here and they criminals. Okay, let's talk about that. People with contagious diseases, people who were going to import prostitutes, [00:09:26] weren't allowed to come into this country. And then the 1875 one, which is all about messing with our Asian sisters and brothers and family and friends. Now, in the 1900s, though, this country shifted from putting [00:09:42] a premium on European immigrants that came from the Northern. And Western part of Europe. And they started saying, okay, the Southern and Eastern Europeans can come up into this piece. And then they reverted back. So let me be clear for folks I know, people don't like Donald J Trump. [00:10:00] And for those who don't like him, based on his policy positions. And based on the crazy foolishness stuff that he is spouting out of his mouth, I get it. But to compare that man to Hitler is a path too far. What we should be comparing him to is a time in this country where, [00:10:18] through policy. It discriminated against non white immigrants, and it only really wanted immigrants from the Northern. And Western part of Europe, let's go and tell truth about the United States of America. [00:10:34] Trump is more. He is, unfortunately, sharing a personification of the bad old days in the United States of America. >> Speaker 1: Wow, I gave you the multiple titles at the top of the show. >> [LAUGH] >> Professor Turner, is it too late for [00:10:51] this journalist to audit your class. Because what you have just done is broken through the facade. The lie, the history that would have made us feel a little bit better as Americans. And you've said Hitler was bad. [00:11:08] But instead of looking over there. What's that over there? Germany, Hitler's legacy. We have one here, it is dark, it is desperate, and it's about to repeat itself. That is a hell of a history lesson today. [00:11:26] And so how, when you have Americans, no disrespect, more attuned to USA Today. And New York Post headlines, instead of a deep dive into who we really are. How do you even the one woman force that you are, [00:11:45] how can we spread the word that it's about us? And that includes you living at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, President Biden, that includes you. Why won't anyone call this out as you just have? [00:12:03] >> Sharing that part, it's about us over here. I'm so glad you said it. Before we go over there in other people's waters, let's just go on and deal with this right here. I mean, the first, what, 14 or so presidents, the first few presidents owned slaves, enslaved people. [00:12:20] So, no, we ain't got to go all the way over there to Hitler. I think part of it, Sharon, is doing what we are doing here today. I know the Biden administration wants to win the race. You should do everything to win, but not anything to win. Everything to win, but not anything to win. And it's serious business even to compare [00:12:37] somebody that is as backwards as Donald J Trump to Hitler. Just go ahead and tell the truth about it. That in today's America, that's the way that we would expect, that anybody running for president. Or any office in this country wouldn't still hold the views that [00:12:54] this country had in the 1700s. That's what we would hope that we would have, a president that wouldn't take us backwards. And your other point, Sharon, about, we're looking at you over there. President Biden, don't forget, it wasn't that long ago before he told Charlemagne. The God on his show, that if you don't know whether you voting for [00:13:12] me or Donald J Trump, you ain't black. That happened in 21st century. And Joseph R Biden said that this is the same president who said that he didn't want his kids going to school with black kids. Cuz he didn't want his kids to go to school in a jungle. Okay, so let's unpack all of this stuff. [00:13:28] Let's be against anybody that takes positions or have policies that take our country backwards. We should be moving forward. And the fact that Trump, he knew exactly what he was doing. But I wish it was only Trump. It's not only Trump. Now they saying that Biden beat him by 7 million votes. [00:13:46] Well, in fact, yeah, he did. However, Trump got over 70 million votes so that means that we're dealing with a bigger conundrum. We have a bigger conundrum than Donald J Trump. It's called America and the psyche of far too many Americans when it comes to race and race relations. [00:14:04] And some white people thinking that this was their land, it wasn't their land. >> Wow. >> Speaker 6: They stole this land from the indigenous people and then brought our black behinds over here to work it. Now, that's the truth. That's the cliff notes version, >> Wow, >> Of the truth. [00:14:19] >> Speaker 1: This historical cleansing that makes some people feel so good is dangerous, because while Hitler is that historical terrorist figure. >> Speaker 6: That's right. >> Speaker 1: Once you realize that it was right here on this soil, [00:14:36] it didn't belong to us, by the way. Didn't belong to you, it was right here. And that history can repeat itself right here. That's a whole nother animal. And the way you broke down the recent historical comments of the current [00:14:52] president, who was on that super predator tip, too, wasn't he? >> Speaker 6: The crime bill, Anita Hill, I mean, we could go on and on. >> Speaker 1: We have our work cut out for us. And it starts with auditing your class, professor. [00:15:10] Senator Nina Turner. I'm serious, you schooled me. >> Anytime. >> Speaker 6: You schooled us all. And you do it with such grace, such fire. I'll take the cliff notes version. If Americans can just get that, we have a leg up. Okay, if we could just get that.
