MSNBCs "PoliticsNation" host Rev. Al Sharpton called on President Donald Trump to be respectful in his rhetoric toward women but inadvertently misquoted legendary singer Aretha Franklin's most famous lyric.
Sharpton was addressing Trumps insults toward Omarosa Manigault Newman, the former White House aide and "Apprentice" contestant who wrote a new tell-all book criticizing him. Trump called Newman a "dog," a favorite insult of his that Sharpton called an "animalistic slur."
"I think you mightve learned the lesson this week, sometimes the dog bites back with a book deal," Sharpton said.
Sharpton concluded his comments with a reference to Franklin's 1967 hit "Respect," in which the singer spelled the word out. Sharpton and Franklin, who died last week at the age of 76, were close friends.
"So in the words of my late friend Aretha Franklin, show some R-E-S-P-I-C-T, and the next time you get a black woman and a beagle confused, remember this: I got you," Sharpton said.

Poor old loudmouthed race baiter never was the sharpest knife in the drawer ...
E-V-A-S-I-O-N
Low IQ..just proving President Trump’s point
“Lean forward” and throw up.
It’s what he says when the mexicans overrun his hood.
did he ever pay his taxes?
Why isn’t this man in legal trouble over his back taxes?
Heck, why isn’t he in jail over that?
The amount involved was considerable as I recall.
Why do some evade any justice for legal transgressions?
Al Sharpton is an extremely stupid and dishonest boil on the butt of humanity.
Where is his church?
Reverend Al is allegedly an ordained minister.
Where is his church? Which denomination ordained him?
is it racist to ask these questions about Rev. Al Sharpton and Rev. Jesse Jackson????? Allegedly men of God who are allegedly leaders of the black community???
This racist has the IQ of a shoe size.
This despicable racist, whose living depends on his being able to stir the pot and agitate his fellow blacks, got his "ordination" out of a Cracker Jack box. He knows just what to say, just what buzzwords his low IQ "congregation" will respond to. He gets them all excited about stuff they normally wouldn't even have thought about, and indeed, which deserve no consideration because they are not true. He makes quite a good living collecting money from his gullible followers and protection money--same as any mafia-victimized store owner-- from entities who don't wish to be labeled "racist", by this arch-racist. It is time and way past time, this piece of gutter refuse was tossed into jail for the rest of his miserable life. And look to his jailbird family members as well.
Ah poor MSNBC are stuck with the FBI informant for the duration ,LOL
Sharpton’s the face of adult illiteracy.
R-E-S-P-I-C-T? Isn’t that what happens at Sharpton’s Harlem car wash at 4:00 P.M.
“Heck, why isnt he in jail over that?”
If he were white he would be.
Maybe he thought she was Puerto Rican?
Probably 3 or 4 yaks before the show.
He should be a red cap at JFK.
“Where is his church?”
Store front reverend like Jesse Jackson.
