Fernand Amandi: GOP Trying To Turn Fla. Gov. Race into a ‘Race War’

‘If Republicans can make this a race war, then I think that that is their calculous for how they win this election’

RUSH EXCERPT:

AMANDI: "Well, it is. And I think the Republican campaign, the racist Republican campaign, speaks to that as Cornell talked about. Unless they make this campaign on racial terms, unless they turn it into a race war, we have even Andrew Gillum refuse to take the bait. He is talking about what wants to do for the people of Florida and while Ron Desantis continue to try to write this down. Why? Very simple. Math. In the white electorate in Florida goes 8/20 for Ron Desantis and they can define it on the racial trope, that will be enough to win. But if they can keep the margins down, we know people of color will turn out because they are excited and enthused by the Gillum candidate, but if Republicans can make this a race war, then I think that that is their calculous for how they win this election. But it is reprehensible. So do we fall for the cheap tactics that undermine our democracy. That is the central question people need to ask themselves."
