What A Day - Misogynoir Takes Center Stage During Q&A With Trump At NABJ

Former President and convicted felon Donald Trump took to the main stage at the National Association of Black Journalists' annual convention in Chicago for a question and answer session. The decision of event organizers to feature Trump was highly divisive, leading one of the association's co-chairs to step down and multiple featured speakers to cancel their appearances. When the interview began, Trump wasted no time in disrespecting the Black women journalists on stage with him and questioning Vice President Kamala Harris's Black and South Asian identity. For an insider's perspective on the lead-up to and aftermath of Trump's Q-and-A session, we spoke with Ameshia Cross, Political Analyst for Sirius XM and frequent guest on MSNBC.

And in headlines: Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh assassinated in Iran, Israel kills Hezbollah commander and several others in Beirut airstrike, at least 11 people have died in protests of Venezuela's Nicolas Maduro, and the Paris Olympics becomes "Fear Factor" as triathletes dive into the Seine River.
