Lawrence: New York's stupidest rich people clapped after Trump said 'child care is child care' - The Last Word - MSNBC

Donald Trump spoke at the Economic Club of New York where, as MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell points out, the most disturbing sound in that room was the reaction to Donald Trump’s speech from “New York’s stupidest rich people.” Lawrence says that they were “clapping for the man who they watched try to overthrow the results of a presidential election.” - Aired on 09/05/2024.
