Piers Morgan and Joy Reid clashed on Morgan's show, the clips of which are now viral on social media. Reid, the former MSNBC jhosy said Morgan's team ambushed her and made her race an issue for Morgan's "very white audience". “The interview, which drops [Thursday], was a cheap, sleazy, very Piers Morgan pivot to take the heat off of the right and Trump and put it right where the right needs to be, on the Black lady,” Reid said even before the Morgan interview dropped.
Morgan posted clips of how Joy Reid said she does not care how may people former president Barack Obama deported as that was not the issue.
“It was three million,” Morgan said.
“And your point being what?” Reid asked.
“My point being are you as shocked by that as you are claiming to be about Trump? Morgan said on the number of people deported by Obama. Reid said Trump has been doing it more aggressively and there is no process.
“In the interest of fairness, do you condemn Barack Obama’s deportation policy given that he deported more people — let me finish — more people than any American president in history in his eight years?” Morgan asked.
“What an absolutely disingenuous argument, Piers,” Reid said.
“Wow. You didn’t even know how many people he deported!” Morgan said.
“All I’ll tell you is Obama deported a hell of a lot more people than Trump and most of them were brown and last I checked Barack Obama isn’t white,” Morgan said at one point of the heated conversion before it took a pivot to race.
Reid said Trump is targeting people based on their skin color to which Morgan said Obama did it too.
“You’re outraged by Trump, but you’re not outraged by Obama,” Morgan said
“I’m absolutely outraged by fascism and by snatching people off the street, given no process, that I’m outraged by,” Reid said.
“Sure, but Obama wasn’t a fascist,” Morgan said. “Because Obama’s got brown skin, he’s not a fascist. Is that your policy?”
'Now Joy. Look, let's be honest. I don't think you were fired after all those years because of your skin color. Or because you're a black woman,' Morgan told Joy Reid adding that she was fired because her show was getting unpopular.
