Michael Steele: Yes, Republican Party Has Racism Problem | AM Joy | MSNBC
Repugnant Party.
Hmmm, interesting, LOCK HER UP!
The real racism , thinking minorities can't make it without special help from the government , it's racist to think that minorities can't get it together enough to retain ID to vote ; if minorities don't think like you , they often become your target
tstocker69 The real racism is ensuring that there is not an even playing field, and condemning people, who have to climb the mountains or step over the boulders, for complaining about and trying to remedy the situation!!!
Yes , we will make up for past wrongs by doing another thing that is wrong years later
Rene Curry... if you give one group special treatment because you perceive them to be at a disadvantage (I don't know what you might call this mindset) what happens to the other groups? And how do the super privileged non-disadvantaged groups allocate their time properly in order to 'level the playing field'? Do they just have to work extra hard? I am genuinely trying to understand the logic.
Can we get the racists and abusers out of positions of power anytime soon?
They found Clinton guilty of perjury because he lied about having a _consensual_ affair!!
jjohnette Hawkins Who would run the country then?? There are racists in the Democratic Party as well...
Not gonna happen. This country was built on racist lies. Good question though.
Who's "we"? THEY are in charge!
With muskets if we have to.t
Mr. Steele was our Lt.governor in Maryland. Honorable man. Sad it took him this long to find out. Now what is wrong with senator Scott from south Carolina? Time to wake up,dude
Scott loves the money too much to care.
Crazy how relevant this is today.
Someone finally broke it to Clayton Bigsby that he's black. Who knew. And someone shake Ben Carson, he's asleep again and needs to be.....WOKE?!?
Ben Carson is a neurosurgeon. You realize you are magnifying his race because you disagree with him?
"Magnifying his race". What a curious turn of phrase, and I'm guessing you're not an Ambi-turner, and would have a horrible career in NASCAR. As far as being a neurosurgeon goes...well, clearly he shouldn't have practiced on his own hypothalamus.
4c1dr3fl3x DON'T HOLD YOUR BREATHE!!!
DOUBT HE WILL EVER WAKE UP..
4c1dr3fl3x
No one can wake Ben Carson. He's a lost cause.
Clayton Bigsby!?!? LOLOLOL!
In other news, Water is wet, the Sun is very bright.
Erick Phillipps 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Erick Phillipps what do you call a white man surrounded by 1000 black men?
Warden
Erick for the Mic drop 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👍
Bahaha! Right??
water is water. you get "wet" when you have "water" on you.
He's a typical Republican. It's ok to bash everyone untill it happens to you, then it's not ok.
its a conservative mindset, they wont rationalize a scenario if it doesnt happen to them or someone they know. which is why they almost never have the capacity to put themselves in someone else's shoe
Aleza Seibert 👏👏👏
I don't think Michael Steele ever engaged in bashing people. he was always a policy guy as far as I know... but you are right that in general - it doesnt make sense for any minority or oppressed group to align with Republicans.
RedroomStudios your probably right, he hasn't personally but stood by while others on his side did the bashing and he said nothing untill it happened to him
Aleza Seibert
Yes so true
They are not all racist but all racist are voting for republicans
Not Tom Cruise That's quite a clever and accurate way to explain it.
I smell a cold blue wave incoming
I smell a huge pile of steaming Democrat crap!
Iriha Schu go home Russia
*Tsunami*
I smell a red wave incoming 2020 #trump2020
Haven't seen not one coward black prominent Black Republican come to his defense and demand an apology from this guy
they shouldn't. mike is a lost cause.
GOP is dying
No it's not. It's in a rebirth phase...and it's growing.
R Russell the white House is a shithole and there won’t be many Republicans left when Mueller gets done.
Rebirth? Didn’t you guys win? 😂
BigHunter 20 Is that the best argument you have? 😳😳 The “Well..Some of your guys are bad too” argument? It’s like you didn’t hear what the AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE UNION COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR said.
That's exactly what I was thinking.
What Ian Walters wanted to say is: We elected a Mike Steele as chairman because we needed someone to Uncle Tom for us. He wasn't self hating enough. He was the wrong choice.
I will never vote republican .
I will never vote Democrat
@Rich752C No, because republicans don’t like us. Republicans stereotype us as leeches of welfare, criminals, and monkeys We see the blatant disrespect. We know there have been some bad democrats biden included. But we see how the republicans feel about us so no thanks.
@@issaacxxx6202 BLEACH 2020
"Sometimes, when you speak, the words don't come out as you intended." Says the COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR.
Well black republicans do you need more light on the matter of racism?
Dan Wipper and the Klan is in the Democratic party too. End the kkk voice out of politics.
Black Republicans..... GTFOH with that BS. LMAO!!!!!
Dan Wipper 1964 Republicans voted a anti civil rights activist as their presidential candidate.
Michael Steele is a statesman & a true conservative. He has never spread lies or rumors about liberals. He just wasn't a raving lunatic.
He's what use to be called the "honorable opposition" someone you don't agree with but respected and honored their service. Not the Enemy that must be defeated.
Ola Bode You are right, he should run like Trump ran from the draft board. But I guess he was loyal to their ideals, but he was wrong.
Michael you made your bed by choosing aligned with the snakes sorry brother
Repuglicans
Could Michael Steele's position be more pathetic? It must be so weird clinging to a party that clearly wants nothing to do with you. He talked about racism coming from the top...the president...the leader of the party, but he still wants to be part of it. Mind-blowing..
I agree. There's a serious disconnect here. I truly believe that in his heart Steele is a good man, but something's not quite right in his head. Since around 1970, since the advent of the Southern Strategy, the Republican party has been first and foremost about hating and disenfranchising Black people. Of, if you want to flip the lens and look through the other side, Republicans are about White supremacy. That didn't just happen. It's been baked in to the party since the late 1960s. Then along comes Michael Steele in 2009 and proclaims he wants to be the national leader of a party that hates the very essence of his being. I just don't get it.
Michael Steele seems like a good guy, he's actually able to call out his own party for its problems and doesn't just pretend everything's OK just because he's republican. I won't be shocked when he starts his own conservative party.
So what u gonna do about it Mike?
Go on MSLSD and free style hating on Trump, just like the rest.
Not like theres anything to hate is there troll?
Agent Franks Nothing!
Right? Put your money where your mouth is.
Agent Franks sit and stew like the good little fascist-supporter that he is.
Then again, the man may have finally awakened to the truth the GOP is full of 💩
Mr Steele, I have been avidly watching MSNBC since 2007. As an avid Democrat, I folded my arms and was prepared to counter everything you said. A decade later, although I may disagree with you on many philosophical issues I have come to respect and listen to your sincerity, wisdom, and common sense.. I've just listened to your comments on AM Joy (whom I adore), and would like to raise my hat, or wave a salute to a very noble gentleman. Keep up the good work , sir. Our country needs you.
You are correct maskerville ... though Progressivism is needed and overdue in America, Conservatism is needed to pump the brakes and stress test Progressive momentum. Good Conservatives are needed for American progress the same way weights are needed to make a weightlifter strong. Michael Steele can be that counterweight to keep Progressivism honest, strong and in check.
Dottie McGee I didn't hear that at all. I don't think he ever said he would be okay with it. I heard him explain that it didn't make sense that he was an affirmative action hire because, if he was, he wouldn't have had to go through all he did to win the position. To me, he was emphasizing that he worked hard and earned it fair and square.
The Republican party has a racism issue? No, not the Republican party. Who could have guessed?
Ryan Rauber we don’t. I’m a Republican and I’m not racist and In fact I’ve yet to meet a racist Republican
I can't bring myself to feel sorry for him. It's his party and those "elements" he now speaks of were in existence when Michael Steele was chairman. They were proudly vocal and active during Obama's presidency.He stayed there, turned a blind eye, excused it and rejected it's pervasiveness. So now he just has to accept that there are many in his party feel he was only elected BECAUSE he is black. Affirmative action gone wrong 😂. If he wants these people to stop saying that he didn't earn the RNC chairmanship, then he needs to stop criticising Trump and support or excuse EVERYTHING he does and says. Problem solved. Just get in line Michael.
We all knew this when it happened. No Shocker here lmao
Gate fllips. Mueller is chipping away nicelly, the sculpture is taking a beautiful shape, according Don Jr I LOVE IT
Ian Walters must be seriously confused about his position within CPAC..he himself is considered a minority. Walters should have publicly apologized since he made his statement publicly.
Well Mike sometimes the truth hurt's doesn't it. Especially when it hit's home!
i am not sorry for michael steele he had it coming. if you are black and consider yourself as conservative or identify as republican it just a matter of time until they let you know that you dont belong there.
wow... mike steele realizes that he was a token...
Get the teacup because Micheal Steele is in the sunken place
LOL
In other news water is wet and fire is hot
Poor Token has been working for his enemies.
true Mr. Steele did not realize that white supremacy has never had a tool that it did not eventually break.
Vote vote vote
Get them out!
Wow please tell me Steele didn't just realize the Republican party is racist. Also did he just refer to her as babe? So freaking unprofessional. The gop must have been super desperate if they decided to pick him as the leader.
I'm no fan of conservatism, but I have some sympathy for those conservatives (like Michael Steele and David Frum) who now wakes up and realize that most of those who called them selves "conservatives" were actually not that, but just blistering idiots.
Ian Walters comes across as a troll. Words are words and his are very inferior.
any idea what his racial background is? he has a very anglo sounding name that doesnt quite match with his appearance. I find it even more troubling if he is a minority himself that he would be saying such things.
The Republican party is broken. It must be fixed. We need principled individuals in office who have been duly elected by an informed and engaged electorate. It was not that long ago that the 'never Trump' movement included many of the people now supporting him. The longer the Republicans continue to support Trump, the longer it will take the GOP and the country to recover from the damage he is doing.
That was the only reason he got the job
No government hired officials /president candidates running or hired should be allowed to except or allow hired lobbyists to give money to any government officials/ president for there passing of laws or to benefit in any way from that law. Will be charged with a felony and inprisoned.
I feel that Trump should thank Obama for his own presidency. If it weren't for Obama, Trump would not be president today. I feel this because having a black president radicalized very many conservative people in this courtly which fueled their anger and bitterness leading to the support of the more extreme blunt angry conservatism that Trump utilized. Am I wrong? Or am I just stating something obvious?
Yes captain obvious. Please tell us more
this is true... but to say that it is personally Obama's fault is a mischaracterization.
RedroomStudios I didn't say it was Obamas fault. I said Trump should thank Obama. Which is hilarious considering all he does to downgrade him.
I don’t know what motivates a person to remain in the Republican Party despite all of these racist bigoted misogynistic remarks put forth by many of the members including above all trump himself.
The sad thing about it is if he were still a big shot in the RNC he would defend and deflect this statement. Would have a lot more respect for him if he would’ve stepped up during the Obama Presidency.
R in republican stands for R-A-C-I-S-T !!!
Love the passion! He's fired up & the honesty is refreshing- you got it babe!
Ron Reagan said this over a decade ago. Now that Michael Steele has been publicly trashed, he finally admits that the GOP is problematic.
I’m ashamed and embarrassed that I ever voted for a Republican In my lifetime, never again.
How does Michael Steele stay a republican
"Thanks for calling in."
"You got it, babe."
*sigh*
The Republican Party is disgraceful. I am so over it all. Switched parties and joined my amazing daughters.....Tufts graduate and USC....I joined them...It is their world...I am retired..
Just VOTE them OUT come next election. NO MORE REPUBLICANS!
I met Michael Steele when he was Lieutenant Governor or Maryland. He was standing in for the governor at a reception at Government House (the Maryland Governor's mansion). He made excuses for why the governor couldn't attend He's still making excuses for Republican leadership.
If Ian Walters is being paid to be the COMMUNICATIONS Director, and he claims he didn't speak correctly, then he FAILED in his job. He's a failure either way.
Michael steele i applaud you for what you did with going off on the entire republican party. You said exactly what needed to be said
Ian didn’t lie❗️It was wrong to elect him based on his race. That’s the definition of racism.
It’s safe to say that Black folks will just flock to the Republican Party in droves because of this! Their outreach strategy is incredible 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Add this to the Republican Traitor Problem, LOL!
Wasn't he accused of taking money to spend on strippers?
How could a black politician rationalize being member of a party that hates him?
Mike....I hope that you're finally waking up
REALLY??? U JUST FIGURED THIS OUT???
Anyone else notice he called her babe at the end? Lmao
We elected Steel because he was a black guy..... If I'm not mistaken his intended message was Steels ethnicity shouldn't have been a factor in his election .
why must we look at donald trump on that big screen while this is being discussed? we all see, hear and read enough about him as it is.
Racism is not a problem for the Republican Party.?It is Strategy.
Almost got there Mr Steele.
Both parties have racism issues
There is no shame anymore. Racism did not decline as I thought it had, it just went underground. We have not advanced as much as I thought and that is sad. I read an interesting quote: "can someone who was born blind be racist?"
In all fairness the Democratic Party has a racism problem as well
oh wow!!!!!!!! i never wouldve known except if i went to any internet comment section on social media
Did he call he "babe" in the end of the call?
polara1se I heard that too! “You got it babe.” I’m sure he is already regretting it, but I sort of wanted to see Joy react. Maybe she didn’t hear it because producers were talking in her ear about the next segment?
And yet he's still a Republican.
Steele is very personable...even when he was heading the RNC it was hard to dislike him (although I did), but for him to stay in that vile, mob-like excuse for a party after all this horrible behavior is disgusting.
Trollski alert--captain papineau and popcorn sutton.
Mirounga Mirounga ,a few more have joined in, lol
This is exactly why I do not support DACA or immigration legal or illegal. # hold your own nuts.
They used him and now they want to remove him from the record books forever.... tough break
As you know, an old farmer once said, " They run with the hounds while pretending friendship and brotherhood with the rabbits." Stop whining Sam___.
Michael Steele's "you got it babe" sign off to Joy. It sounded endearing☺️.
Brother Steele, I respect you for your principles as a member of the GOP, and your accomplishments at the RNC. From the time the "Dixiecrats" infiltrated the party, the specter of race has always been there. The unfortunate irony is that now it has been publicly directed at you, that you know speak out against it.
Michael Steele is an embarassment. Thought the lightbulb went off in charlottesville or with jeff sessions or the endorsement by david duke lol
No b/c of Barack becoming presidents allowed you to lead that party. Where is Roland Martin #WETRIEDTOTELLYOU.
How's that help by calling the GOP racists ???...Why'd he stay ???
Mike steele is not thin skinned. Stand your ground and keep your party honest. We need both parties to balance an honest debate
Mya Angelou said it best. When people show you, tell you who they are the first time, believe them.
Wow most Black folks have known this for at least 50 years.
Joy he should be ashamed to make excuses for racism talking about right now. I just started following politics and I knew from the start gop was racist.
It's hard to believe that Michael Steele didn't know that he was the token.
Steele just figured out he was a token, who knew?
14 months in and still there are people who don't get it 🙄
I am not a Micahel Steele fan, but he did a decent job for the GOP and helped them win majorities in the house and senate. Watching the GOP throw Michael under the bus and act like he didn't help them win accuse Micahel of spending money like a drunk sailor and replace him with the ultimate wet noodle Reince Priebus made me look at the GOP with an even bigger side-eye than I did before and it confirmed that party has a problem with strong black men even if the black men agree with them.
The GOPs racism problem is Not a that of a legion of Racist. Its a systemic problem that the GOP shares in with this whole nation.Its a problem in which the element of RACE is intrinsically important when it shouldn't be. Throughout rhetoric and policy decisions alike the irrelevance of RACE is made relevant.
Ya don't say...Now act like you weren't complicit all along. Now no one will have respect for you.
Wait a minute.the guy who said it doesn't even look white...But he's saying what the Gop really thinks
But I'm going to stay in this racist corporate sell out party. I don't feel sorry one bit for michael.
😂LoL.So NOW he admits the Modernday KKK party has race issues.and only because he was Insulted.
What a wipe
Don't get mad now because you've been reminded of your place... You've always been one of the republicans token brotha's!
Joy Reid's program is always about race. If there is no problem to talk about, she'll create one.
IS THIS DISTORTED BLACK NEWS?
Excuse me but no one is pointing out that the guy who said it is “black” himself????????????
[pretends to be shock]
*shocked
"We have allowed..." Where do you think you are (political party affiliation be damned)?!!!
Shocker black man shocker! This ain't your grandparents GOP!
Michael Steele had to be cognizant of the role an African-American man in the Republican party would play. In no small part, he would be a useful tool for Republican party officials as a frontman, however hard in reality he had to fight for the leadership role. Mr.Steele, as a white woman in this nation years ago, I had to make choices that had to do with my principles and party sexism. It was costly. You, sir,knew what you would gain by your mercenary choice, and, for that, you have been rewarded to this date and continuing. So stop mooing like a cow stepping on its udder.
