is a case that was not in fact about Donald Trump's false accusation of black kids, rather it was his false accusation about innocent kids because only people on the left see race.

JONES: You breathed. You can go back to the Central [Park] jogger case where he came out and had innocent black kids winding up in prison. LORD: No, innocent kids.

is an organization that was a leftist terrorist organization and the military, terrorist arm of the Democratic party who killed people to further the progressive agenda.

JONES: Hold on a second. I know this man when he gets passionate about terrorism. I know how he talks about terrorism. The Klan is a terrorist organization that has killed . . . LORD: A leftist terrorist organization. JONES: You can put whatever label you want... that's your game to play. LORD: No, it's important to history. JONES: We're not going to play that game. LORD: We're going to understand history. LORD: Rev. Wright is an anti-Semite. JONES: Rev. Wright never put anybody on a post. And you guys play these word games, and it's wrong to do in America. LORD: It is wrong to understand that these are not leftist. They were -JONES: What difference does it make if you call them leftist' They kill people. They don't play games with that. LORD: You're right. You don't hide and say that's not part of the base of the Democratic Party. That has been -they were the military arm, the terrorist arm of the Democratic Party, according to historians. For God's sake, read your history. JONES: Listen, I'm not, I don't know -I don't care who -LORD: This whole attitude of dividing by race is still here. And this is how Democrats do the deal. JONES: I don't care how they voted 50 years ago. I care about who they killed. LORD: I care about U.S. history. It counts. JONES: You have stood with Donald Trump. And you made a case for Donald Trump and nobody else wanted to. And you've earned the respect of an awful lot of people. But when you do not acknowledge that he did not answer that question with the passion he answered with other terrorist organizations, you do yourself a disservice. You do -LORD: He has made this point over and over and over again. This is a media thing here. Did he make a mistake' Sure. But he said this many, many times. I've gone back and looked. He's well on record, over and over on this. JONES: It's worse than that, sir. The whole thing with the Central [Park] jogger kids, he got the entire city of New York whipped up on this idea that these kids had done [something] wrong. And then it turned out they were innocent, we all make mistakes. LORD: Right. JONES: He never apologized to those kids. That's a stain on him. You can walk through, time after time, where he's done stuff like that. The stuff he said about Native Americans, being criminal organizations and mafia. He said so many -LORD: Van, but what you're doing right here, is dividing people. We're all Americans here, Van. You are dividing people. This is what liberals do. You're dividing people by race. JONES: I'm not. LORD: This is what liberalism is all about. JONES: The Klan divided it by race. LORD: You have to divide by race. JONES: The Klan kill people by race and he had the opportunity and he didn't do -LORD: And they did it -they did it to further the progressive agenda. Hello' JONES: That is, first of all, so absurd. LORD: It is not absurd.

is all about dividing by race and is in fact a continuation of the klu klux klan's leftist progressivist agenda. It's what liberalism is all about.

The fact is that Trump's record includes a long history of decidedly equivocal and rather gentle rebukes of the KKK, and his father was arrested after an actual Klan rally, even as what happened there is unclear. If that combination alone is not enough to make other Republicans want to seek some form of distinction between themselves and Trump or at least quite suspicious of his political ideology and platform, then America is in serious trouble indeed. Even as Trump restates his disinterest in the political support of the KKK or its current and former members, he followed that with a seemingly off-handed, 'How many times do you have to disavow'' This is the public behavior -the actual caught-on-tape evidence -of a presidential candidate who seems to believe that there is some kind of reasonable middle ground, a moderate stance or minimal level of public deference that is due the KKK.

is non-existent. There are no people of color in this country, there are only Americans.

Last time we checked in with contentious CNN analyst Jeffrey Lord, he was blaming the Black Lives Matter movement for the resurgence of neo-Nazis. This week, he took his inflammatory remarks a step further, suggesting that race is no longer an issue in the U.S. 'There are no people of color in this country,' he said Tuesday night on 'Erin Burnett OutFront.' 'There are only Americans.' Lord then called identity politics 'racist' and told a Democrat co-panelist that 'your party has yet to apologize for slavery.' This is pretty classic rhetoric from the conservative commentator. He's repeatedly defended Donald Trump's racist remarks, claiming that the real bigots are the people who criticize the president-elect, and linked Democrats to the Ku Klux Klan.
