After watching Nina Turner last night on TV

I find her even more disgusting. Her 'Trump is not to blame' tatally made it seem like she was excusing Trump's racist screeds. Yes America has been a fistoon of racial and sexist bigorty for centuries. But that in no way removes blame from Trump for his working people up into a frenzy of fear and anger over race.

Wonder how many blacks Nina will help turn to Trump or a third party as she did in 2016?

If so, I'm curious if you have a link to what she said - please and thanks.

I hate to be "that guy", but Bernie Sanders personally HAND-PICKED Turner to serve on the Dem Unity Commission in 2017 (along with Nomiki Konst and some other usual suspects) and all they did was piss all over the whole thing...
