During a Friday interview on CNN's Newsroom, radio host Charlamagne tha God said black people are the "next" ones President Donald Trump will put in cages, as anchor Brooke Baldwin nodded.
Baldwin asked the host of The Breakfast Club if strong job numbers for black people under the Trump administration would sway his support toward the president.
"The jobs numbers came out today and they were positive," Baldwin said. "Whether or not you're a fan of Donald Trump's, you know, when you look at what happened, black unemployment fell to a record low in August, helped by a jump in the number of black women on the job. Can you argue with those numbers?"
Charlamagne responded that he can't afford to be a "one-issue voter" as a black man.
"I feel like the soul of the country is at stake in 2020," he said. "And you know, I don't want to be under a fascist regime. Because the truth of the matter is that when you end up with the regime of a fascist, the person that's going to be affected the mostit's going to be black and brown people, because we always get the short end of the stick in America. I don't want to be under a regime like that."
"When you look at someone like Trump, it's like okay, who's next to be in those cages? It's not going to be people that look like you," he continued, pointing at Baldwin. "It's probably going to be people that look like me. So, jobs aren't enough."
Baldwin nodded and said, "I hear you," before moving onto another question.
Later in the interview, Charlamagne criticized former Vice President Joe Biden for helping author the 1994 Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act. He added that he believes Biden polls well among black people "because he was the vice president to the first black president. I think it's more bro-ism than anything."
I’m descended from Charlemagne. And I honor God.
Who does this punk think he is, pimping that handle?
Why even bother to report on anything that happens on CNN?
CNN is nothing more than sensational tabloid “reporting” over the airwaves, about the wildest imaginations of the wildest guests they can gather. CNN might as well convert themselves into an insane asylum.
And what about ‘Madonna’.
Get along Kid Charlemagne.
She was in the same Penthouse issue as Miss America. Didn’t even shave her armpits.
Never thought in my life time that I would be saying that the national enquirer tabloid at your supermarket check out touting any celebrity at the time was abducted by ufo’s, or my wife is pregnant with an alien baby is Now a legitimate news outlet compared to these mentally ill dopes on the loose
Some black people need to be in cages. Some white people too.
Classic. When we were young and stupid and after a few too many drinks, my brother would take off his shirt and give the Madonna pose with his hairy pits. It still cracks me up just thinking about it...
I was sitting at a Firestone Garage waiting for my Car that was being serviced.
They had CNN on the TV and there was a group of Black People watching attentively and hanging on every word.
I just shook my head and went back to reading Free Republic on my iPhone.
Don’t ever doubt the damage and influence caused by the DNC Media. There is a big world beyond our FR Bubble.

Another yapping moron, what do you expect to hear him say?
Democrats put them in boxes.
THis IS CNN!!!
would putting blacks in cages be like Roosevelt putting all our Japanese citizens in concentration camps?????
Sorry Democrats already have been doing that
NEXT
CNN’s Newsroom = Oxymoron
They can never be free only the truth can do that.
It’s amazing to me how outlandish these memes are.
Reality: Trump is releasing Blacks from prison.
Reaction: Blacks are the next ones to be put in cages.
These people are incapable of sentient thought.
Any public entity that gives voice to people like this should be shuttered immediately.
