marcia cross is with us as well. democratic strategist, former obama campaign official, administration official as well. what do you make of all of this? >> well, i. >> think that donald trump is leaning in on his base. >> he did. >> make these promises. but i also think that he is somebody who is very much on a personal level against the progress that we've seen amongst certain groups, particularly groups of color. this dismantling of essentially the civil rights act and civil rights gains that were hard, hard fought, many of which he spoke and castigated against on mlk day just a few days ago. i think that this is very disastrous for america one, because we are a diverse democracy. we are the most diverse democracy that exists in the world. and when we talk about things like diversity, equity and inclusion, we have to remember that this nation was not built, nor did its laws actually open up opportunities for an equal playing field, for people of color, for people of diverse backgrounds. and that is why we see some
