Tavis Smiley to Megyn Kelly: Trump, Cruz Running ‘Segregated Campaigns’

Tavis Smiley criticized the top two Republican candidates on Fox news tonight by saying they’re running “segregated campaigns.”

He told Megyn Kelly that Trump simply lacks the humanity, civility, and integrity to be president, and between that and his hateful remarks against minorities, he shouldn’t be president.

Smiley did have some criticism for Democrats––they’re taking the black vote for granted––but also said that black people shouldn’t be expected to vote for Republicans running a “segregated campaign.”

He said that Donald Trump and Ted Cruz have not engaged in minority outreach and let other groups know that their votes matter.

Smiley likened this to if President Obama only campaigned in the ghetto.
