The podcaster and radio host also excoriated what he saw as the media’s double standards and failure to convey the true danger of Trump’s rhetoric.
In a clip that has gone viral on social media, Charlamagne, a popular podcaster and co-host of the nationally syndicated radio show The Breakfast Club, is asked by host Anderson Cooper about Trump’s plan to appear on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast and whether Harris planned to do the same.
“I think that she should keep calling Donald Trump a fascist,” Charlamagne replied tersely.
He continued, “And I think that Americans need to keep looking at the rhetoric of Donald Trump because I don’t know why we’re even thinking about electing somebody who’s talking about putting people in camps. I don’t know why we’re talking, why we want to elect somebody who’s talking about mass deportation. I don’t know why we’re having this conversation about somebody who wants to terminate the constitution to overthrow the results of an election. Aren’t we supposed to be a patriotic country? Whenever somebody like Colin Kaepernick takes a knee in this country, everybody talks about, ‘Oh, that’s so unpatriotic.’ But a guy can say he wants to terminate the constitution to overthrow the results of an election and nobody cares?”
Addressing Cooper, Charlamagne said, “Now, you brought it back to Kamala and Joe Rogan, Anderson, who gives a damn?”
.
Anderson, being gay, should be especially vocal.
First they came for the “illegals”
Etc.
He is on whatever list of lists they have.
He may not be first in line, but he will be.
Fascism wants only a certain kind.
Anderson is not that kind.
He’s rich and can just leave though. The rest of us are the ones who’ll have to deal with this shit.
He’s a fucking Vanderbilt, he’ll be fine
He should have followed it up with “He’s already threatened to have broadcast licenses pulled from a news network that did nothing more than fact check him. What do you think he’d do to you and yours if you don’t report positively 24 hours a day?”
.
None of that matters because they made more money last time he was in office.
This is exactly the way Trump needs to be covered and while I don’t listen to Poscasts, it really makes me want to start.
Start with Cleanup on Aisle 45 instead of the Breakfast Club.
it’s fucking absurd where we are 12 days from the election. the fix is in, and those who claim to love this country, clearly hate it. I don’t care what happens in the election, this nation is cooked.
