Az. State Sen. Battles Ana Navarro: Granted You’re a Republican But You’re Also a Liberal
EXCERPT:
MONTENEGRO: "Ana, you -- anybody can say that they're a Republican. Granted you are a Republican. But you're also a liberal. And you can't run away from that. The reality is you're -- you voted for Hillary Clinton. So let's be honest about what we're talking about here. We're talking about a narrative that tries to pin conservatives and Republicans as racists just because we follow the rule of law, just because we want to respect the rule of law."
CUOMO: "All right. All right, but here's the thing. Here -- here's the thing."
NAVARRO: "Let me ask you, why am I a liberal?"
CUOMO: "Hold on."
NAVARRO: "Why am I a liberal? Because I stand up for my community? Why am I a liberal? Because I want to defend the Dream Act kids? Why am I a liberal? Because I don't forget that I'm an immigrant and that I'm a Hispanic and that I have a Latin accent when I speak English and I want to defend those who get racially profiled by people who would discriminate against us?"
MONTENEGRO: "No, see, but if you -- but if you look at --"
NAVARRO: "Why am I a liberal? Because I -- because I believe in gay rights?"
MONTENEGRO: "Let's look at the issues that actually matter to --"
NAVARRO: "Is that what makes me a liberal?"
MONTENEGRO: "If you want to use the Hispanic community -- if you want to use the Hispanic community, then let's --"
NAVARRO: "And, yes, I voted for Hillary Clinton because I thought and I think that Donald Trump is unfit. Unfit as president, unfit as a candidate and unfit as a Republican. And I was a Republican when he was a Democrat. And I was a Republican when he was an independent."
