It Was the Black Guy

It’s unusual for leading conservatives to just come out and say openly why they went totally insane–because the Black guy was elected. But Megyn Kelly did it this weekend:

“We haven’t felt like ourselves since Barack Obama. He was such a slick snake. This affable guy wearing good suits and looked the part and sounded the part and dressed the part. But so divisive in his messaging.”

It’s not entirely clear who Kelly is referring to when she said “we,” whether it’s the entire nation, Republicans, or conservatives.

“He’s the one who started to inject race where no one had been doing it,” she said. “He’s the one who started to use his pen in the phone to shove things down our throats that we didn’t want. He’s the one who shoved through an entitlement on our healthcare and our personal doctor visits that he promised he wouldn’t mess with, and he did, really hurting people and causing massive anger and open lies.”

Kelly’s rant accused Obama of “twisting the knife” on “the racial issue” in the United States, and she said he was the reason Trump became a political figure.

“He was the antidote to the divisiveness of Barack Obama,” she said.

Black historians beginning in the late 70s noted that the civil rights movement was the Second Reconstruction. We are now entering the Second Jim Crow. And like the original Jim Crow, it isn’t happening. It’s a process of a few decades. We are in that process now. Except this time, the attempt is to strip power from white liberals too, which is a more challenging process for the racists but one they definitely can handle so long as John Roberts lets Republicans do whatever want to for any stated reason.
