#MichaelSteele #Republican #RNC
My father ran for congress twice against Democrat Harry Sheppard. He was passionate about Republican ideals. However, a decade later he sat in on a sociology class while visiting me at college. He became so interested in sociology that he went back to school for a masters in that subject. He then switched to the Democrats, appalling many of his friends and supporters. His explanation? The Republican world view was too cruel. I think of him often as the GOP erodes before our eyes, and the cruelty seems fundamental to this.
I grew up as a Republican and switched before I turned 18 (in 2000 during my junior year of HS; I turned 18 long after the 2000 election meaning I could not vote). I first voted at age 19 in the 2002 midterms and voted straight Democrat down the line to avenge Bush stealing the 2000 election from Gore.
An American friend of mine said, Republicans were a party of the classics. They were well read and were intellectuals before being politicians... I was like, Really? When? Until the 1960s. Maybe early 1970s. I was born in 1977. Now all I see is Majorie Toilet Green, Matt Gatez and Lauren Boebert. Once is a trailer park janitor, the next one traffics minor across state lines and the third one gives Handies in public... Republicans!!!!
What an interesting story. Sociology is a great social science. I earned a Masters in it too. I never got a job as a sociologist -- they only exist I think in the university setting -- but what I learned opened my eyes and allowed me to see things, particularly propaganda, that others swallowed. I was always able to find interesting work too. It's an area that is great for analytical people. Good for your Dad!
As you see right now. A whole world know what Putin has done to Navalny.
The GOP ideals could make some phenomenal figures. However, everything has both sides; the bad side of the GOP ideals is that just one wrong person in power can destroy everything it has built before.
Instant Democratic - just add education.
It never fails.
"I was doing just fine till your behind showed up!" Michael Steele on fire folks! 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you Mr Steele!
Giving Lara Trump RNC's checkbook and a pen is no problem. What can possibly go wrong?
🤦🏾
🤣 😂
nothing at all ..........nothing ............ bankruptcy!
Hey the whole country was fine giving Trump's son-in-law access to the highest secret intelligence in the land even though he failed his security check so why TF is anyone worrying now.
And before some Dem comes back with a rebuttal I have to ask, when he was appointed where were you? Did you protest this dangerous nepotism? No you did not. You all say back while he appointed his utterly unfit relatives in the Whitehouse.
And what makes this even more ridiculous is the Republicans currently acting like Hunter mentioning his dad was VP, or had been VP was the crime of the century.
America is a joke of incredible proportions....
Yes but it is good news because it means the end of the RNC.. because Trump bankrupts everything he puts his hands on.
Tell them, brother Michael!!!!!
Telling it like it is! YOU GO Michael !
It sounds bizarre to hear her talk about unity and trump, when after kissing his butt, he fired her and said on national television that they don't want any Romneys in the party. She's been kicked to the curb by her abuser and sh's defending him. That's sick! And it certainly isn't unity.
This is the republican way. McConnell is endorsing Trump after Trump spoke racial slurs about his wife. Trump called Ted Cruz's wife ugly and every chance Cruz get he's kissing Trump butt.
He already had plans to install Lara to grift the RNC coffers.
Nothing but TRUTH!!!!
It may be sick, but it's classic cult behaviour.
She's keeping in with the Republicans who will be providing her with the Board placements from which she will make her millions ....
Thank you Michael Steele for speaking to this so frankly--this needed to be said, just as you said it.
Yes, but he's overlooking the rot of the R swamp gang started long before trump. Former R operatives who jumped from the party have said there as a dishonesty, cynicism, moral bankruptcy and traitorous conduct in that gang for a long time; it just went off a cliff with trump leading the spineless traitors there. Stuart Stevens wrote a book with that theme in the title: "It Was All a Lie: How the R Party Became Trump" in which he argued that many of the principles and policies the party leadership espoused were hollow pretense, a hoax, built on quicksand.
Michael Steele you know why you were replaced! Just look in the mirror 😮. Another thing! That black female host is embarrassing to hear and watch. She acts like she's taking to her corner peps. Not a professional or a good look. Grinning, skinning, loudly testifying, and bouncy in her seat.... Do better!
Thank you, Mr. Steele. Very well said. 👍
You go Michael Steele!
AMEN TO MICHAEL, THE TRUTH WELL SPOKEN 🤙🏽 💙💙💙💙
he is a GOP flunky
She even disavowed her own name.
Im a proud Democrat and I have disagreed with Mr Steele on several issues but I've always had the utmost respect for the man. THAT'S the type of Republicans I remember!
Same here.
Well said by Mr Steele that's the Republican party I remember and have great respect for even though I'm a Democrat both party were able to come together and solve America's business for the people.
I would like to officially endorse Trump for prison! We from the New York area have been waiting for this for decades. Watching him get away with his snake oil criminal activity without any accountability! It's time to pay the piper 😡
Fellow New Yorker here. He’s been scamming us for decades and getting away with it along the way! It’s more than time he pays up!
@@Pdf258 absolutely 👍👍👍
fellow NYer. We all knew him as a fraud, a clown, a failed businessman who refused to pay his contracts and caused other businesses to go under, an actor conartist and a loser. should have been in jail a long time ago. thanks to Putin and reality TV, he was president.
"What it is" is a cult.
Go to Google and research for it.
100% no other ideas, no other leaders, ALL for Trump & Trump for Trump .... Yeah, that's a cult.
no that's the vile treasonous democratic party
@@naomineal1785t meets all of the characteristics.
@@Gretabpooh yeah the democrat party does meet all of the characteristics
Long-time dem here, but I have ALWAYS listened to Chairman Steele…always. ❤
You tell ‘em, Michael! And how in the world could you have been a republican for over 50 years? You’re too young for that.
He was born Republican okay. Focus on his knowledge and wisdom he knows about the Republicans party.
@@jacquelineotto4148hmmm mkay
He's retirement age.
IKR
@@jacquelineotto4148it wasn't an insult he just looks so ypung
This is amazing. Right on!!!!
We need You back Mr Steele!!! You are a man of empathy and integrity and Men and Women like you are NOT MAGA POS!
I agree!
He is anti choice. Didn't you hear him just say he worked AGAINST the Affordable Care Act? He is especially against President Obama!
saying people are white supremesy and facist and untidemocracy etc, is not empathy OR INTEGRITY! its stupid,
Lol the loser from the mitt Romney campaign 😂era
@@ogboost7610 That’s Right!
BREAKING NEWS: Trump's Secret Service let him strap-up after he went an NRA dealer-show last year!
If I were Biden, I would make sure Trump goes through a known working Metal Detector before the debate or Trump may think he's on 5Th Avenue?
Trump has no experience or training with guns. Honestly, he's more of a danger to himself than he is to anyone around him.
Don't you worry about that... They will check him proper - including his diapers. What Biden really needs to worry about is, whether Trump goes on in his diapers... it will stink up the place!
I know it sounds crazy but Trump is desperate and capable of doing something. Last debate he was diagnosed with COVID the next day as I remember. He would have loved to have given it to Biden. I was worried for the same reason as now.
honestly, there needs to be no debates, lets let them keep campaigning ONLY, and no 3rd party candidates in swing states. The margin is too close to leave it to chance
@@d.pollard5962 Trump knows he can never debate Biden again. Trump has know retention of facts, history & or current events and situations.
Really hoping the GOP can find a way back after all this. We need Conservative and Liberal voices and ideas to make this country better.
The problem with conservatives is theyve always catered to the ugly side of America aka white folks with hat red issues. The most rabid people migrate to whatever party is the most conservative. Their understanding of what being conservative means is to conserve white supremacy above God, country, or decency.
They will once diaper don is six feet under.
True ...... but now it is Biden the man of reason vs Trump the man of treason!
@@tpliscon4662It will take getting rid of any current Republican who follows Trump's example. That includes at the lowest party level on up. They should start a new conservative party. The GOP brand is damaged beyond repair. Start a new party with a real platform and new leaders. They'll draw in conservative Democrats and Independents that wouldn't touch the GOP with a ten foot pole as well as sane Republicans.
I don't see it. They have been pandering to it post the 1960's. Someone like that was written on the wall. Then they start lashing out. Then you get Charlottesville, etc.
What I have been saying for what seems like a decade or so. They need to go the way of the Whigs. Especially when I noticed them being party over country around 2010-11. Or whatever year that was.
Amen Michael!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Steele needs to leave the plantation a.k.a. the RNC. What is taking so long? They disrespected him when he was RNC chair.
Exactly. I don't get him to be honest. A speech like the one in this video and he's still a Republican? Why?
He will bankrupt it like a casino
I love how she was fine with everything up to the point the scorpion stung her. Then, and only then, did she have a problem.
Really would like to hit the “Thumbs up” icon a lot more than just once..!!
Great, GREAT rant, Mr. Steele..
Blessings…
Not a Steele fan but he is spot on about Ronna. A huge part of our losses in 18, 20,and 22. Thank you. Vivek for making this an Issue within the party.
After Nov. You can add 24.
My wife doesn't like Michael Steele but I forgive him. She just doesn't like the way he went after Obama when he was the chair of the RNC. I told my wife everybody has a chance to change. I think he's all right
That was when things were “normal” .. you know republicans v democrats .. Steele was chairman of the RNC after all. The normal republicans like him, Jolly, to an extent Cheney are suddenly puppy dogs compared to Trump, Jordan, Gaetz, MTG, and indeed. Rhonna Romney
@nathanharris7815 As a woman, I agree with your wife. She's a politically smart woman!
I agree with your wife. Michael only changed because republicans came after him personally and kicked him out as RNC chair. He thought they saw him as an equal, but anyone who has seen republicans for what they are since the 80s knew they didn’t. That’s what disaffected republicans are finding out from their maga brethren
Agreed, most everybody deserves second chances. Third and fourth are questionable.
Steele STILL goes after Obama. I am NOT a fan of Steele.
Thank you!!! Spot on Michael 👍
VOTE BLUE!!!!!
Michael Steele bringin' the heat ❤🔥
Michael Steele never talks about his prominent role in repub voter suppression schemes .
Oh apparently that's okay, basic Republican political action, it's only storming the Capitol that's bad 🤨
Michael finally said something that i agree with 😊
Okay now!! You Go Michael Steele👏🏽
Thank you Mr. Steele🥰😇🙏
They better check themselve,before they reck themself...
Pardon? Explain.
Do you mean wreck?
@@darrylsimpson4744Change your behavior before your actions damage you.
@@annettepora8091Yes, it's a phonetic spelling that makes it look like "check".
Too late
Preach it Mr. Steller!!!! I was raised with the look; put the respect back in Congress!
Nice work Mike Steele 📺✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿📺🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
"Unity is a two way street." I've been looking for those words for a long time now.
Mike, that was the best I’ve seen yet from you five stars
Talk to your Party, Mr. Steele...
💙😏💙
He's bloody right, and on point!!!!!
The man has a point and he said it very well
You tell em Michael Steele.
Thank you. Sir! My dad was friends with Ike and I remember him coming to our house and how nice and honorable he was, and I was a little boy back then. Ike and dad's Republicans were decent men and women who cared about their country and families. You are a wise and noble man!
The more I watch your show the more I like it! Keep it up for those of us that need some sanity. Please
I love Michael Steele...
Yeah say it!
Thank you dear Mr Steele
Here's to you, Michael.. Nough said!!!
While I appreciate Michael Steele (and Scarborough and others) for their public stances, I haven't forgotten where they were. They're not THAT far removed from where these Trumpers are now. Michael Steele has a direct hand in this.
Amazing speech from Michael Steele!
Michael Steele you better tell em!!! Cause they don't feel you...
I want more of Mr. Steel ideas .
Preach it brother Michael Steele.
Yessssss say that 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 .
I love this weekend show please give me more
Can someone tell me the year's when America was great. I can't find any documentary on those years.. I'd sure like to know and see what it was like. Help.
I'm always surprised that Teddy Roosevelt is left off the list of great Republican presidents.
Excellent!! Tell it like it is.
Michael Steele is for real. Say it loud and thank you for making it make sense. Vote Vote please

Michael Steele - when will you run for President?
We need Mr. Steel back to RCN, the real embodiment of party of Lincoln!
He doesn't need to be associated WITH trash. clean up that TRASH then talk about a reconnection, until then, No thanks squirt
There is no honor amongst thieves.
Mr. Steele with a WORD!
Micheal, nice words. Those people do not care about your words. Differently dont care about. Smh 😢
More Dark Steele !!
Thanks for trump Mike. You Reagan folks are responsible.
Bravo, Michael Steele
Hey Michael you and your GOP buddies MADE THIS MESS! Don't try to play Brand new.
Well said Sir! At last, a civilized, intellectual speech.
New respect for Michael Steele
WOW. That was actually powerful. We need to get back to THAT kind of GOP. Not that I’d vote for your policies but let’s have the discussion.
Im with you Symone he just put them in there place, I'm pounding the table screaming preach it brother Michael
O girl steppin on the man's conversation, let him finish.
X-zackly Lolols
Thank so much?
Michael Steele is amazing to listen to
Love Michael Steele!!!
If you think it was a mess .. they will see what a mess looks like
I love Michael Steele tells it like it is !! 👏
I would disagree with Michael Steele on policies he brought forth, but as a fellow human on our blue orb i have his back 100%....RIGHT ON, Michael. Aloha
"Ooooo, Jesus, it's hot!" 😂😂😂😂😂
I just want to say how much I love Mr. Steele for his honesty, perspective, and the "fortitude " to correct conservatives and represent Black Conservatives!
Michael Steel, 💯
PREACH MICHAEL
"We the People"! Mike, we agree on that issue. I wrote a book on that topic. Remember, Paradigm Revolution? Sign me up! that book should be out in a couple months. You'll love it! Then you'll want me on as a guest.
I was reminded of something Abraham Lincoln said: “We cannot escape history. We will be remembered despite ourselves”!
Mr. Steele, thank you for your years of service to a former party that no longer exists. Also, thank you for telling it how it is. The MAGA and RNC talk about the Constitution. In reality, the new personality cult is filled with self-centered, glory-seeking, rude, immature individuals who know nothing about and do less to form a more perfect union.
Go ahead Michael preach
that was the best!!!
