Davis Hanson Rips Rick Wilson: By Making Fun of Poor White People, He’s Exempted from Being a Privileged White

EXCERPT:

HANSON: "I don’t know. I’m speaking from rural America and I can tell you that it’s phenomenal when you see concrete evidence in an empirical fashion of when you have the 3 percent annual GDP growth or record low peacetime unemployment or 300,000 jobs created in a year. That’s a moral act, Tucker. And the Latino population, I live in a community that is 90 percent Latin, is at the record lows. You can see it. People are upbeat. They are working, they have more disposable income. But rather than fixate on that or even critique it, we get back to this, not just that Trump is a Nazi, and by the way, both of these clips, the speakers had called Trump and his supporters in the past Nazi-like, but this is an attack on people. I thought that was the whole purpose of the politically correct movement. You don’t stereotype an individual by demonizing an entire group. We got to remember this is not new, Tucker. All Wilson was doing was rechanneling, I think his name was Caputo, a political reporter, three or four months ago, went to a rally and said one person had more teeth than everybody in the rally. You remember Peter Strozk saying he went into a southern Virginia Walmart and could smell the Trump reporter. And we have another FBI person that said the Trump supporters were POS, pieces of blank. It's kind of the underbelly of the deplorables, the irredeemables and clingers that Obama and Clinton used. It’s really ironic because they are very elite themselves. They think that by making fun of the poor white, and they're mostly poor white working class people, that earns them an exemption from their own privilege as being privileged, elite white people. And then people like Hank Johnson believe — remember, he called Israelis termites, channeling Farrakhan. They believe they are exempt because they have the victim status and they can say whatever they want. It’s a sad commentary when the entire political correct movement, which was designed to not use offensive speech to stereotype people, turns out to be nothing to do with the principle but power all along."
