voters who say they re now supporting democratic congressman j.d. shelton. why is that? you know, it s very interesting. he has had such a loyal base of christian conservative republicans in his western iowa district. and what is happening is some of those very same christian conservative republicans are take great offense now at the way he s talking about immigrants because some of them have adopted children from other countries. and when steve king makes these remarks about we can t preserve our western civilization with other people s babies that s now very offensive to them because it hits them where they live, in their homes. so i think there are a lost decent people who live in his district who have just been profoundly misguide by his rhetoric, people who have not had a lot of contact with people of color or immigrants before
the president denies using the word in question. some in his base defend him if he did, even going as far as to say, it won them back after he seemed to be, in their minds, backing down on a tough immigration stance. i m joined by kurt bardella, former breitbart spokesperson and former congressman j.d. hayworth. kurt, you wrote about this saying it typifies how republicans use immigration to energize the base. explain. we saw already today with donald trump s tweets saying this is about border security, national security. they use those terms, those issues, law enforcement, the rule of law, as a mask to hide what really is racist policies that target hispanics and minorities. it gavel nizs the base. there s a reason donald trump chose to do that after that
that was? how could it be that members of congress were not allowed in? i. i do not have reporting on that. i can tell you in response to what former congressman j.d. said. to say that there s a hysterical and we all need to calm down, with all due respect, you can say that because of your position of privilege, excuse me as a white man. oh, my goodness. i m being attacked. i m being tacked. you can respond in a minute. what happened you need to listen because you will not be stopped and questioned at any point as to whether or not you have papers or legitimatesy to be in this country and what has happened from the members of congress who tweeted that out, for example, castro who said i believe now that every single undocumented immigrant is at risk. so of course myself being an immigrant who is not born in this country and as i m looking at that and getting on the subway, so exactly what is going
every undocumented person and help them out. we are doing that, by the way. i am personally doing that, by the way, but. are you sponsoring immigrants? hold on a second. j.d., we re not going to divert in a conversation about whether everyone should sponsor them. i want to come to we do have people who are responsible for fixing these problems they re called members of congress. several of them participated in a meeting with a immigration and customs enforcement and came out of that meeting believing that all 11 million undocumented people in the country are now at risk of deportation but there were some hispanic democrats were not even allowed in the room. several hispanic democrats were denied entry into the meeting with immigrations and customs enforcement, congressman guz was one o them. he tweeted about the fact that members of congress kept them out of the meeting. do you have any reporting on why
