I'm confident that at the end, we're not going back to Jim Crow. This country has changed dramatically. There is goodwill on the part of a huge number of whites now. I don't care what this president does. He's not going to be able to turn back that tide. And thank God for it.
Gergen expresses confidence in the progress of race relations in the U.S. despite the current president's actions.

It's very, very big. Not legally, but politically, it's a very, very big deal.
President of United States has not had a security briefing, or security briefing since October 2nd. I've never heard of any president, under any circumstances, come anywhere close to that, and been so derelict of the duty.
He is a leader there's no question about that. But I think he's a bad leader. I think he's leaving his people into, he's leading the country, especially into a very bad place.
One more sign that he just doesn't give a damn how he changes our traditions and overrides our norms.
