Hakeem Jeffries: ‘Every Racist in America Voted for Donald Trump’

RUSH EXCERPT:

JEFFRIES: " Well, it seems like the White House is acknowledging that at least some portion of their base are filled with racist individuals. Now, I’ve long since concluded that not every American who voted for Donald Trump is a racist, but every racist in America voted for Donald Trump. So clearly there is a segment of the population that the white House is now acknowledging. They count amongst their base who would be the only individuals in the United States of America who can somehow be pleased with these remarks. Let me add, wolf, I am pleased to see that Mia love, who is a Republican member of Congress from Utah, also a member of the congressional black caucus, has denounced these remarks, is calling for an apology. I’m proud that I represent one of the largest Haitian American communities in the country in Brooklyn. They are hardworking, entrepreneurial, community-centered, spiritually grounded individuals and the president should be ashamed of himself. I’m glad that Mia Love has stepped up."
