ABC’s Hostin: ‘Republicans Are Intentionally Dumbing Down Our Electorate’ to Remain in Power

‘Erasing history so that past can become prologue’

EXCERPT:

HOSTIN: “Why are — why is French, and Mandarin and Spanish being taken away from our public schools? So that we can be a monolithic — a monolingual society and can’t compete globally. We — the Republicans are intentionally dumbing down our electorate, erasing history so that past can become prologue, and so they can remain in power. And it’s grievance politics at its best, and it’s because people see what Sara was saying. I can’t pay my electric bill. My gas bill’s high. I need my food. And why is that? Why is my station in life like this? It’s because that black guy got into Harvard and became president, or it’s because that immigrant is over there doing better, driving a nicer car than I’m driving. It’s grievance politics, but culture wars specific. And I wish people could see it in that way because this is not by accident.”
