Maxine Waters Claims America Gets More Racist “Every Day”
The California Democrat told a California radio show, “Every day we have seen this nation get more racist than anybody thought…”
During an appearance on Los Angeles radio station KTLA’s “Inside California Politics,” the Congresswoman responded to a question about Senator Tim Scott’s Republican response to Joe Biden’s address last week by attacking America as a racist country.
“Well, you know I don’t know if he was counseled to say that or whether he really believes that. If you really believe that, then he has missed not only the history of the country but what is going right now.” Waters said.
“As we watched the invasion of the Capitol on January 6, those people following Trump say they were taking back their government, and they were willing to harm people. As a matter of not only were they willing to harm people but Capitol Police, who happened to be people of color African-American, they were calling them names of the N-word. Every day we have seen this nation get more racist than anybody thought perhaps would be at this point in time.”
Senator Tim Scott delivered the Republican response to President Biden’s first address to a joint session of Congress by passionately defending America’s history.
‘Today, kids are being taught that the color of their skin defines them again and if they look a certain way, they're an oppressor. From colleges to corporations, to our culture, people are making money and gaining power by pretending we haven't made any progress at all by doubling down on the divisions we've worked so hard to heal. You know this stuff is wrong. Hear me clearly, America is not a racist country,” Scott said.
