the birtherism, for you to say that that s silence look where john boehner is now. i say this about my own party, my own party could have gotten out of its way and denounced birtherism more than it did. do you agree birtherism is racism? why are we talking about this? the election is over. we need to move on, jojonathan. jonathan, if they answer the question, will you stop talking about it? please. okay. yes, i will. answer his question, jack. do you think that birtherism is racism? i think somebody can bring that up and not be racist, and i don t think hillary clinton was a racist when she brought it up. i rest my case. in 2007 in iowa. i rest scotty, go ahead and answer that question. do you think hillary clinton s a racist. i want to ask question for question. let s answer scotty answer the question. is birthism racism? scotty, make him answer our
jack and scotty right now, do you acknowledge birtherism is a racist attack stop, grow up, jonathan. hang on, hold on, stop. bob has not sid one word the entire time. you know, let me we started this thing, on what happened just two days ago. exactly. that was a vivid video for matted example of what these people are about, now, you want to hook that on to trump what trump when they come out and make these statements and say, he has consistently denounced this kind of stuff, you talk about an opportunity, he should have gotten out in front of this, and said, by the way, saturday, there was a meeting in washington, d.c., these people were overjoyed with my election, let me tell them not to be overjoyed, because they have no place with me. can he do that? no. did he take the opportunity, no? in the meantime, what does he do? he names jeff sessions attorney general, which is maybe the
me. and this is to the point that i still think hillary s a racist, that s all. it s not just that donald trump advanced birtherism as a way of launching his career. in a way, scotty s right, that the alt-right, which we call, the racists and the nazis are a very small segment. but when birtherism became a thing. and it was promoted, virtually the entire republican party, john income cane was an exception. they either stayed quiet because they were afraid of denouncing birtherism, lest they be challenged in a primary or they actually agreed with it, so birtherism, and that kind of racism, the reason you see now the republican party not denouncing trump jonathan. you re saying it started there, and now here we are, that was the beginning of it i m telling you. i need three seconds on this, don. let me say this, as a republican house member at the time, our speaker john boehner denounced
i think you will see somebody else emerge to challenge him. he is soft on this issue of providing detail and specifics on his plans. to suggest that marco rubio is a kid is ridiculous. he is a 44-year-old adult in the u.s. senate and certainly has every right to be there. it is not the first time i have heard people say marco rubio looks really young. he may look young but he is not a kid. you disagree with all of this, don t you, scotty? do you think that donald trump is weak on national security as marco rubio says? absolutely not. none of these guys have put forward plans. you are not talking about it. it doesn t mean that donald trump doesn t have it or mr. trump doesn t. none of them put it out. jeb bush put his economic plan out two weeks ago. you can t name two or three points. rand paul, a month ago. everything mr. trump is doing is calculated. to sit there and say he had a bad debate night.
