Mike Barnicle on the daily struggles in poor communities

As the country focuses on the protests and rioting over the death of Freddie Gray in Baltimore, Mike Barnicle on Morning Joe discusses the disconnect between public officials and their understanding of the daily struggles in poor communities. “How many of the people you served with know one fundamental thing (about) how hard it is to be poor in the United States of America? How many of the people you served with know how hard it is to take six bus rides to get to a job that might be 15 miles from your home?,” Mike asks of the Morning Joe guests. Watch the whole conversation here. Only on MSNBC.
