The Majority Report with Sam Seder (general)

The Majority Report is taken over by Ken Ken & Ken. KKK gets to the bottom of why New Dork does not speak, defends Donald Trump and rates the Trump women. Michael Shure from TYT joins KKK and defends the libtard policies for Hillary and Obama. Why can't the media be honest about Mr. Trump's momentum? Why won't Michael be honest about Jewish power? Shure defends BLM and they call out Cenk Uygur.

Bud Light loses Seth Rogan and Amy Schumer. Random Hartmann and the KKK show takes phone calls.
