That's a lot of people.
There's an old thing that down in the South, you go hunt with your grandpa after Thanksgiving and grandpa went hunting.
He came home and grandma said, honey, how was the duck hunt?
And he said, well, it depends on whether you and me are the duck.
And so if you're the duck and, you know, you got a bunch of hunters that are pointing guns at you, you know that you're at risk.
And 90 million people is a lot of people.
And I want to be really clear about this.
I'm not saying that everybody that supports Donald Trump or some of the ideas that he has is a racist.
But most of the racists in this country that actually think about white supremacy and think about when America was great again and believe in superiority, that viewpoint has found its way into Donald Trump's orbit, even though Donald Trump may be thinking just about his money.
They have found a vessel.
To continue that strain of thought that has been with us since the beginning of time in America.
And we have been in battle with each other since the beginning of this country.
And I think, you know, I'm not to put words in the professor's mouth, but Langston Hughes, when they were describing lynchings, were talking about strange fruit.
OK, those things just didn't come out of anywhere.
It came out of a way of being and a way of seeing.
And whether you're talking about classism or racism or misogyny, it all comes from this sense that some of us are better than others.
Now, I would just point out this.
I think America's great.
I think most Americans are good people.
But we have arrived at this moment.
