"Trump Is Targeting BLACKS" - Al Sharpton CLAIMS Trump’s National Guard Takeovers Are RACIST

28 Aug 2025

Transcription

Chapter 1: Why does Al Sharpton claim Trump targets black mayors?

0.031 - 15.762 Pat

Trump only threatening cities with black mayors. OK, this is not going to end well for Sharpton. But let's let's let's play this clip here, Rob. I'm sure you got it right. This is what Sharpton said about the president, I believe, on Morning Joe. Go ahead, Rob.

0

15.995 - 39.319 Al Sharpton

It's got a lot talking about how I've condemned a lot of what was going on in Chicago back in the day and other points. It's not about crime. But when you have this consistent pattern that you're only going after black males, now you're going to fight Westmore. I mean, the pattern here is clear, particularly when the data shows that crime is down in these cities.

0

39.299 - 55.333 Al Sharpton

And you should be saying, why can't I work with the mayors? The wise political strategy is to start picking off some of these mayors that can say, Trump's not that bad. We're working together. He doesn't want that. And it's clear he's doing it at the expense of people.

Chapter 2: What evidence is presented regarding crime rates in Democrat-run cities?

0

57.736 - 58.497 Al Sharpton

Does that work?

0

58.697 - 84.649 Unknown

Al Sharpton is just there to say everybody's racist. Every time anything like this comes out, they just wheel him out. Can we be honest with each other? He's talking about all the mayors of all these cities and he's going after black. Okay. D.C. Mayor is African-American, correct? New York City Mayor is what? African-American. Philadelphia Mayor, Sheryl Parker, African-American.

0

85.189 - 89.837 Unknown

Los Angeles, Karen Bass, African-American. Chicago, Brandon Johnson. Well, guess what?

Chapter 3: How does the discussion address the racial politics involved?

90.218 - 103.908 Unknown

You guys are effing up. And I'm sorry, but when somebody points it out, you have to be like, oh, it's racist. No, he's not going after it because of the race. Clean up your effing city. For some reason, you guys just feel like, nah, let's just keep it crazy. Let's keep it dirty.

0

103.928 - 108.979 Unknown

Let's keep everybody on freaking welfare and everybody killing each other because we're going to keep getting federal funding.

0

108.959 - 132.722 Unknown

no i don't i'm tired of that pride and i just i looked it up i'm like wait a minute is he really going after them because they're racist uh because he's racist no they're all african-american it seems like hey why aren't you taking care of your people in your city okay everything is like no don't look at me look at me trump trump bad trump bad no no you suck at your job and that's what it is by the way believe it believe it or not the way he put that

0

132.854 - 152.827 Pat

he brought the pressure on African-American mayors of cities. So there's a pattern. It's not that he's targeting them. It's the fact that it's African-American mayors, for whatever reason, I don't know why, crime is high in those cities. So you might say, well, that's because it's mainly African-Americans. You really want to continue going?

0

153.408 - 176.01 Pat

This is not going to end well for you as you're going through this slippery slope. Then they have to use the racist card. No, you're just being racist, right? Now let me show you something here about what local Chicago folks who are sick and tired – of their mayor, and they're asking for Trump to come. And you tell me if these guys look like Trump voters. They're just sick of it.

176.03 - 183.077 Pat

They're like, safety over politics. Finally, common sense. Look how she calls him out. Go ahead, Rob. Play this clip.

183.097 - 195.109 Unknown

You all stood up there and said you would not allow Trump to come in here and get these illegals. Yeah, you can smile. We're in a billion-dollar deficit. And you spent...

Chapter 4: What are the implications of the National Guard's involvement in these cities?

195.443 - 224.623 Unknown

half of our money, half of that on illegals. You campaign, you campaign and double down that you will not raise property taxes. I won't raise your property taxes. You wanted to raise our taxes 300 million. They shut it down. Now we back here for 150 million. Okay. See, this is what we asking now. Since you want to crash out, some of y'all said y'all willing to go to jail for it. Trump,

0

225.43 - 249.968 Unknown

Tom Holman, make an example at this right here first. Please come here first. We're going to spend our tax dollars to go, Michael, where I read it, you said to take Trump to court to protect these illegals. That's cool because we're about to make all of y'all, all of them famous. Y'all think this is going to run? I think not. This is Chicago real. We're not playing.

251.31 - 272.713 Unknown

This is what's going to happen to you. You got Kash Patel and Pam Bundy that you're going to have to deal with sooner than later. Then it's going to be an audit. Next, it's going to be an investigation. Then it's going to be an indictment. That's what's going to happen to you.

272.813 - 278.144 Pat

He brought him an orange jumpsuit. Now they are going to call that guy an Uncle Tom.

0

278.585 - 279.247 Unknown

100%.

279.347 - 286.943 Pat

And they're going to call these guys racist. So when they use the racist word, watch what this guy does. Again, Chicago.

Chapter 5: How do local citizens respond to Trump's actions?

286.923 - 299.46 Pat

Crime. Just so you know, I'm going to show you something from a story of somebody in D.C. D.C. goes 12 straight days without murder following the Trump's capital crime crackdown. Rob, go back to that clip. I want to stay on this racist thing with Chicago. Watch this other clip I just sent you.

0

299.881 - 321.79 Pat

There's another clip I sent you of a guy that's questioning him, that he doesn't want to answer the question. And then they show a clip afterwards of what he campaigned on. This is Chicago's mayor. Again, I've been to Chicago 100 times the last 25 years. I had so many offices in Chicago. I almost bought a house in Naperville. I wanted to move to Naperville.

0

321.77 - 343.717 Pat

I have offices in Oak Brook and Des Plaines, you name. We had all over the place. I used to go and stay at the same exact hotel. I have so many great memories of Chicago the last 25 years. I would like to see the city be great again. There's a big Assyrian community there. There's a big Middle Eastern community there. Watch this right here, Rob. Play this clip. Why are you a racist?

0

343.737 - 344.518 Unknown

Mayor Johnson.

0

344.538 - 344.638

Yeah.

344.973 - 360.164 Unknown

Please turn the mic on. Thank you. Real Chicagoans woke up this morning relieved that the Department of Justice is finally investigating your race hustle. As someone who grew up on the south side of Chicago, I've heard a lot of race hustlers in my life, trust me.

Chapter 6: What statistics are shared about crime and race in Chicago?

360.624 - 387.734 Unknown

But they were usually marching around outside of City Hall, which is what makes this so embarrassing and dangerous. For over a year, real Chicagoans, white and black, have been telling me that your black power rhetoric is bringing the city backwards from a place that it had overcome. You want the question? Please. Real Chicagoans want to know, why are you a racist?

0

387.754 - 392.759 Unknown

You know, first of all, I reject the idea and the premise that somehow that that's an actual legitimate question.

0

393.219 - 409.135 Pat

Okay. Do me a favor, Rob. Pause it right there. Fast forward to when he's explaining himself, because the gentleman's going to ask the same exact question twice, so you can skip that. Keep going, keep going, keep going. Go to the part where he's sitting to the right. Keep going. It's about to come up. Right there. Okay. Play it from right there. Go ahead, Rob.

409.452 - 434.766 Unknown

One employer of our people is our people. What I'm saying is when you hire our people, we always look out for everybody else. We are the most generous people on the planet. The deputy mayor is a black woman. Department of Planning and Development is a black woman. Infrastructure deputy mayor is a black woman. Chief operations officer is a black man. Budget director is a black woman.

435.087 - 454.913 Unknown

Senior advisor is a black man. One thing that I know for sure that I have to do over these next two years, every single dime that our people have been robbed of, I wanna make sure that that is returned two, threefold. We have six developers that have received the first $30 million for investment.

Chapter 7: What arguments are made against the notion of Trump being racist?

455.234 - 463.985 Unknown

Five out of six. Six developers. Of those six developers, five of them are black and three are women. Boa Construction Okay, you can pause it right there.

0

464.466 - 483.597 Pat

You get the idea of what's going on. And then they're saying, well, he's only targeting black mayors. Sharpton, he's only giving money to blacks and only taking care of blacks. And if you're white, he ain't targeting you. So what does that mean? Who's the more racist one there? See, this is where logic and data comes out and they lose the argument. Tom, your thoughts on the story here?

0

483.617 - 499.061 Tom

Well, you know what's really funny is Trump is picking on statistics that are showing that citizens have enough and are living in horrible situations.

0

499.081 - 523.564 Tom

Washington, D.C., how many clips do we need of people that say, this is better, they're actually making the police work hard, the police were kind of casual, and we now know, we've seen individuals produce what they claim is evidence that allegedly all these crime stats were being fudged in D.C., so it was actually worse. And then when Al Shopton comes out like this,

0

523.544 - 549.364 Tom

Al doesn't want more than a five minute interview. And I would tell you why. Because he's claiming Trump is racist. And you want to go into the statistics and crime. If you want to go in the statistics in Philadelphia and in Chicago. You don't want to go in and look at the victims and the perpetrators because black on black violence is at the top of the statistical list.

549.725 - 564.875 Tom

More of the crime, unfortunately, tragically, is black on black. And so you want to go there, Al? This doesn't end well. It's sad. The communities need infrastructure. They need school investment.

Chapter 8: How can the issues raised in this episode be addressed moving forward?

565.176 - 597.568 Tom

They need strong mayors that are colorblind to bring it back. And right now, you need the National Guard to restore order so you can't even get to first base. That's what I think, and I think Al Sharpton is so disingenuous. If those were half-hour news shows going A to Z, he is at the end of it with nothing to say and completely, completely... exposed for just his comments about racism.

0

598.129 - 612.529 Tom

He's the one with the dog whistle. He's the one that's race baiting. He's the one that's trying to make it a racial issue when all we're doing is we're looking at the statistics in certain cities and people that need help. And the president is saying...

0

612.509 - 623.173 Pat

I thought you were going to show some stats. Can you go to chat, GBT, please, Rob? I thought you had some numbers you were going to show. Because, Tom, you prompted something very good. What percentage of Chicago's population is black? Can we look that up?

0

623.193 - 624.657 Adam

It's about a third of it, Pat.

0

624.677 - 630.791 Pat

I know. I actually did some research. I want to look at this here. What percentage of Chicago population is black? Okay?

631.312 - 631.412

Okay.

631.392 - 654.48 Pat

Let's say it's going to be 28%, 29%. Okay, 28%, 29%. Perfect. What percentage of the crime in Chicago is from the black community? Maybe Sharpton's right. So let's validate him. Let's give him some credibility, and maybe we're wrong and he's right. And if you look at this, go a little bit lower.

655.675 - 661.081 Pat

Okay, so black Chicagoans are 20 times more likely to be a homicide victim compared to white residents.

661.541 - 662.062 Adam

Victim.
