Ernie Johnson’s Inrecibly Moving Monologue On Donald Trump’s Election

 

At the start of last night’s Inside the NBA on TNT, Ernie Johnson, Kenny Smith, Shaquille O’Neal and Charles Barkley addressed the audience with reflections Donald Trump becoming the next president of the United States of America.

Ernie Johnson’s reflection though, was unbelievably moving and he ended his monologue being almost in tears. I have nothing but respect for Ernie. Here’s what he said:

 

“I’m hopeful. I watched the video today on CNN of what was going on at the White House with Donald Trump and President Obama. I was hopeful and I was encouraged that there will be a difference between the President Trump and the campaigning Trump. And I’m with these guys, we have to give him a chance. But here’s the deal, I just hope he’s all in … in fixing the wounds in this country and the divides that separate this country. And I want to be part of that too. And for me to part of it, I have to look in the mirror and say, ‘How am I going to be a better man? How am I going to be a better neighbor? How am I going to be a better citizen? How am I going to be a better American? How can I be a fountain and not a drain?’”
