Tara Setmayer & Abby Phillip UNLEASH on MAGA Pundit’s Racist Comment in Heated D [5:01-10:02]
But he always does this. No one has clean hands here. Yeah, but one side was forced to stick their hands in the muddy dumbass. He's not a dumbass. He knows this, but doesn't want to hurt the right wing's feelings. Or else he won't get invited on to Megan Kelly show anymore. That's why people like him play this game. It's extremely cowardly and selfish because he probably has a real stance he believes in. But he's just so afraid to hurt anyone's feelings. He wants to be able to line his pockets from both sides. These people are not to be taken seriously. Trying to talk all calm and gentle. Come on, let's come together. Kumbaya, father here. Where they try to safeguard the districts for themselves on whatever basis. So I do think the ruling was probably generally in the right direction what we need now, however, is some actual gerrymandering reform. Republicans have power right now when they could pass a national gerrymandering ban. But instead, they're listening to Donald Trump and allowing him to drag us down to the depths of hell on this redistricting case. I don't think there's any better vindication of the VRA section two than what's happening after section two was effectively struck down. We have Memphis where they're about to take, I believe it's like a 60% black population and they're about to split that, dilute that into three separate districts. This is exactly why section two existed in the first place. That's what they did in Nashville, also. They did this in Nashville. You can't ban gerrymandering. A free portion of it is in the Constitution. But let's just deal in the reality here. From a conservative point of view, and a constitutional point of view, the arguments around intellectually, the academic arguments about the Voting Rights Act that have been going on for 30 years now, are fair in ivory towers. In real world consequences of this, though, we are not a utopian society where we are race neutral on anything, as much as we are aspiring to reach our more perfect union, we are far from that. And unfortunately, under this administration, and under what Donald Trump has been doing now for the last 10 years, and what Republicans have done, it has all been about diluting the votes of minorities because minorities don't necessarily vote for Republicans. And this is the way that they have been planning this for decades. This has been a long game, and especially in the South. You disagree with it? If you look at the judges, that Donald Trump has had federal judges, that he has nominated to the bench at the federal level, in the South in particular, they have all been anti-voting rights judges from Alabama to Texas to Florida. So this has been a longer game than that in what they want. Yes, in a Supreme Court that has been very anti-voting rights. We don't have a lot of time to hold that in place. Let's just be honest about what this is really about. The New England has gerrymandered everything. There's 21 congressional seats in New England. All of them are Democrat. Zero Republicans, when there are 40% Republicans in New England. So the only reason the South wasn't able to gerryman like this because of the voting rights act. Because the South was in power for how long? There was a hundred years. So because all the states, all the people of color, that's not ignored why the voting rights act. That's not a pre-recarra. That's a pre-recarra. Let me finish my point. You're making your argument. The gerrymandering wasn't loud because the voting rights act. And the New England took advantage of that and created a bunch of Democrat seats. So, but wait a minute, just back to your point. You're saying somehow that black representation is needed to improve the black district two in Louisiana. Let's get back to Louisiana. District two in Louisiana has been represented by black person for 35 years. The income in that district is still half of whites. There's been no improvement that being represented by a black representative has not improved. It's about two years ago. Are you saying that a congressional representative is responsible for the quality of life of the entire... No, that's what she's saying. That's why I never said that. No, I never said that. I never said that. She's doing that. I don't mind that, but I mean, listen, but there are a lot of reasons. I've been caught on real quick to what Team Mutronpa was doing here. He let his racism slip out a bit too much. He's basically saying, let white people run the districts. Since black people don't seem to be able to do the job, do the job well, right? Hmm, let's go further into this comment. He's basically saying that they are black. Maybe they aren't. They just aren't capable of doing the job. Let's go a little further. What do you mean they aren't capable? Is this racist piece of trash long way of saying black people are just not competent enough? Let the white people take over. We have a proven track record of all these successful districts around America. Have you noticed that all the worst districts are ran by black people? This is what this little bootleg, chromosomal missing trash is saying, completely ignoring black people standing in society. Like if they treated us such kings and queens, right? That's how black people are treated in a society, Team Mutron? No, no, no. Life is certainly not harder for black people. It's not like racism exists. That makes it more difficult to get a job, a better paying job, education opportunities, better health outcome, and on and on and on. No, no, no. No racism exists in this country anymore, right?
