Watch Episode One: The Messy Truth - Van Jones talks to Trump supporters about Civil War

http://addictinginfo.org/2016/11/05/van-jones-has-powerful-conversation-with-trump-supporters-about-the-possibility-of-civil-war-video/

The possibility of a civil war has been on a lot of people’s minds as the election gets closer. CNN’s Van Jones decided to sit down with a family of Trump supporters to discuss this very issue. Fittingly, the family he met with lived in Gettysburg, the site of the bloodiest battle of Civil War.

Both sides got their opinion out, both sides agreed at the end that they understood each other better, but it all felt like BS.

So it's okay for the white woman to tell minorities to "toughen up" and not be "sissified" (ugh). It's ok to say we're too "politically correct." BUT the second someone implies she's racist for supporting Trump, she breaks into tears and whines that they shouldn't make HER feel like the bad person. Do these people hear themselves?!
