>> so, nicolle, theres one with during obama he said this country was garbage. i dont know if you remember that one. so heres the fear i have, especially watching the stephen miller interview with wallace this weekend, is that they are trying to change or move the goal posts on the definition of racism, of what it actually means. what i mean by that by saying no, youre the racist. were not the racist. youre the racist because of x, y and z, and youre saying that to people of color, who -- and wh...
