Sharpton: ‘The Crisis Is We Have a President That Doesn’t Understand the Constitution’

Thursday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” while discussing special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe, network host Al Sharpton said President Donald Trump did not understand the Constitution.

Sharpton said, “I think the thing we need to understand is that Donald Trump is running the U.S. government like he is running the Trump organization, no board of directors, nobody that is helping to guide him. He’s helping it like it’s a one-man corporation, are you loyal to me? Which is a crisis.”

He continued, “The crisis may not be what we call a Constitutional crisis, the crisis is we have a president that doesn’t understand the Constitution. And I think if we go forward with this and he keeps operating like this, we are going to be in the midst of a storm that could cause Mueller and everything else. We are headed — there are dark clouds there. We’re headed toward a real storm this spring in this government. I’m Al Sharpton, not Al Roker but I can forecast that.”
