EXCERPT:

SHARPTON: “He’s going to be the president! If you can meet with him, meet with him. That, to me, is no different than when people said to me, 'Why would Kamala Harris go talk to Bret Baier?' So, on one side, she can talk to Bret Baier, but on other side, he shouldn’t come on 'Morning Joe?'' I don’t think we have an equal judgment here, because I think all sides should be talking to all sides. Now, that's not my role. Donald Trump called me after he won the first time, I wouldn’t meet with him because I felt that it would be a photo-op and he'd promote it wrongly, even though we should be discussing issues and we talked on the phone since then. But I know he’s a promoter. If he had been born black, he would have been Don King. That’s what he does well. But I think that what we need to do is deal with the issues that's gonna impact people. I would say, I hope in your conversations, we should ask Donald Trump, you talked about black men would be with you. Where is the black man being nominated by you for your cabinet? Has anyone noticed there’s no black that has been nominated on his cabinet? That needs to be raised. Rather than who's talking, let's deal with what we're talking about."
