Morning Joe’s veteran columnist Mike Barnicle reflects on an Associated Press photograph by Patrick Semansky of President Donald J. Trump, which shows Trump returning from a re-election rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, wearing a rumpled blue suit, white shirt, tie undone. "He’s walking slowly and his face looks defeated. And all I could think of in looking at that photograph was ‘Death of a Salesman.’ Donald Trump as Willy Loman….He’s selling a stale product, an old product, that more and more people aren't buying because they're confronted with the reality that we're all confronted with: More than 40 million people unemployed and a virus that could kill you like that if you catch it from God knows where. And he says very little about that.” Watch more of the conversation with Barnicle and Morning Joe’s Willie Geist here.

Stacey Abrams, former Democratic minority leader in the Georgia House of Representatives and author of "Our Time Is Now," discusses with Morning Joe veteran columnist Mike Barnicle her thoughts on how to both reform and transform police departments in cities large and small in America by changing the way police do their jobs, banning choke holds, increasing training, and investing in communities by providing a higher quality of education, health care, affordable housing and community programs. "This is a ‘both' ‘and' solution to the challenges that have plagued this country from the beginning,” Abrams said. Watch more of the conversation here.

Watch this Morning Joe conversation between veteran columnist Mike Barnicle and Baton Rouge community activist Rev. Gary Chambers Jr., who in a now-viral video sharply criticized East Baton Rouge Parish School Board member Connie Bernard who defended the controversial name of Lee High School named for Confederate Army Gen. Robert E. Lee, and who then appeared to be online shopping and “ignoring” community concerns during an intense debate over whether to rename the school. "It’s heart-breaking and that’s why it’s resonated with so many people,” said Chambers, publisher of The Rouge Collection.

Morning Joe's Mika Brzezinski and Mike Barnicle discuss President Donald Trump’s Tulsa, Oklahoma reelection rally, which produced a low turnout amid the coronavirus pandemic. “I don't think Donald Trump knows what's going on. He certainly knows the polls, but I think what he senses is that a referendum on Donald Trump in various states means one thing: It means he loses. So…he’s got to find an excuse so he doesn't have to blame himself and people don't blame him: The virus will be his excuse when he loses….But Donald Trump is the root of...everything that is disrupting this country today because from Day One of his presidency, he has focused on one thing above all else: Division, dividing the country,” says Barnicle.

Watch this Morning Joe conversation with Joe Scarborough, Eddie Glaude Jr., and Mike Barnicle about the fatal police shooting captured on cameras of Rayshard Brooks, a black man who was killed by an Atlanta police officer after firing a stun gun at the officer and fleeing. “You can train for everything at a police academy, all sorts of exigencies. You cannot provide common sense to someone who lacks it, and this was an astounding case of a lack of common sense resulting in murder two charges for that police officer,” says Barnicle about the police officer who shot and killed Brooks.

Dr. Leana Wen, former Baltimore Health Commissioner, during a conversation with Morning Joe contributor Mike Barnicle about mask wearing being a non-political, public health necessity, calls on the Trump Administration to “step up” and lead by example to help control the spread of the deadly COVID-19 virus.

"George Floyd was executed on a sidewalk, a street corner in Minneapolis, Minnesota. That image is going to be stronger in November than it is now. It's going to remain with this country. It's going to affect nearly everyone's vote. And Donald Trump, instead of addressing it as a human being, which he is incapable of doing...they’re going to plunge ahead, plunge ahead on a law and order issue. It's not going to work,” says Morning Joe contributor Mike Barnicle during a conversation with Joe Scarborough about President Donald Trump’s drop in poll numbers released amid the nationwide protests in response to the killing of George Floyd and with an eye on the upcoming 2020 presidential election.
