Sunday on MSNBC’s “AM Joy,” Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) said both President Donald Trump and his supporters believe they have a right to “ensure that blacks and people of color and others do not rise to any level of influence and power.”
Host Joy Reid said, “Roger Stone found guilty by a jury on seven federal criminal counts, no jail time. Kalief Browder, accused of stealing a backpack couldn’t post bail, spent three years at Rikers Island awaiting trial, ultimately committed suicide after release. We have two justice systems in our country. This is the reason that the Black Lives Matter movement has taken hold, that there are two systems of justice for the rich, the poor, the white, the Black. What do you make of those who are still to this day criticizing Black Lives Matter, such as Senator Kelly Loeffler? What do you make of that, that they are still doing that?”
