The nation has been Dixie-fied. Utah’s Mike Lee retweeted a video of black kids fighting, replied with a bunch of racist nonsense, and concluded, “this is why we need the 2nd.” And when you pick at that, you see he means “white people need guns to take care of black people because they’re violent”.
Oh God, that's awful. I despise Mike Lee from a long distance. He works at being ignorant.
Trying to figure out how we started tolerating the out loud part enough that they’re comfortable w this.
I keep saying this was Trump’s path to the White House: he gave GOP voters permission to be openly bigoted again. And the party has followed him, openly embracing bigotry.
