In today’s third hour, Dom leads off by discussing the issue of race, playing back a clip of Ibrahim X. Kendi who appeared on today’s Morning Joe to respond to Republican candidate Tim Scott’s appearance on the View. Kendi, along with Reverend Al Sharpton, explain why Tim Scott doesn’t understand racism, which Dom finds fascinatingly inappropriate to say about a person of color. Then, Dom explains why he believes Mike Pence is already off-base in his announcement, playing back a clip from a pro-Pence commercial alleging that Trump has abandoned conservative principles, which Dom suggests may be a preview of Pence’s stance on abortion and other social issues.
