The latest on that police killing of a black man, now.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
The new developments in the deathly spatshooting rampage.

Speaker 3 (00:05):
And yes, it was a really bad day for him
and this is what he did.

Speaker 4 (00:07):
And so we are in a state of emergency. Is
always has been the number one threat to our society.

Speaker 3 (00:16):
But I'm also very proud that my wife is white.
The practice club bit s.

Speaker 4 (00:22):
Please tell me, why was I your donkey of the day? Yes,
donkey today for Friday, May tenth goes to an Kolta
and the vic the vic Ramaswami.

Speaker 3 (00:31):
Okay, I'm gonna be honest with you.

Speaker 4 (00:32):
I'm just putting and culta in this because it's subjectively
the right thing to do, because what she did was stupid.
But there's a part of me that respects it. Why
did I respect it? Because I respect honesty.

Speaker 3 (00:42):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (00:43):
We live in the world where every day people wake
up and they lie to themselves and then they project
those lies on the other people.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
And one of the main things we lie about is
how we feel.

Speaker 4 (00:52):
Okay, Nobody is honest about their prejudices. Nobody is honest
about their biases, simply because they don't want to deal
with the consequences of their presjudy.

Speaker 3 (01:00):
This is and biased as well. And Colt, they don't
give a damn about none of that. Okay.

Speaker 4 (01:03):
She was on a podcast with Bake Gramdmaswami and they
were speaking about nationalism and the basis of American identity,
and she straight up told BBC she would not back
him for the GOP nomination, or she didn't back him
for the GOP nomination because he's an Indian.

Speaker 3 (01:19):
I can't make this kind of stuff up. Let's listen.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
Oh, and I agreed with many many things you said during,
in fact, probably more than most other candidates when you're
running for president, but I still would not have voted
for you because you're an Indian.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
What what play one more time? Be ready?

Speaker 2 (01:39):
And I agreed with many many things you said during,
in fact, probably more than most other candidates when you're
running for president, but I still would not have voted
for you because you're an Indian.

Speaker 4 (01:53):
Jesus, I love when they say the choir part out loud,
play the second part from me, Ray, She continued, she
had more to it.

Speaker 2 (01:59):
There is a core national identity that is the identity
of the WASP, and that doesn't mean we can't take
anyone else in a Sri Lankan or a Japanese or
an Indian. But the core around which the nation's values
are formed is the wasp. We've never had a president

(02:21):
who didn't have at least partial English ancestry.

Speaker 3 (02:25):
Damn, we'll take y'all in, but y'all ain't gonna lead.

Speaker 4 (02:27):
Okay, white Anglo Saxon Protestant, that's what they want, get honest,
a dieline. We don't got time for no small talk,
no need for me to act like it's your proposed policies.

Speaker 3 (02:36):
And coaches said, I.

Speaker 4 (02:37):
Agree with many things you said during your presidential run.
She said, in fact, most things.

Speaker 3 (02:41):
But that fall out.

Speaker 4 (02:43):
I'm not voting for you because Yandy and I need
a white Anglo Saxon Protestant to represent me and rep
your set.

Speaker 3 (02:50):
I'm not mad at it, No need to be mad
at it. When people show you who they are, believe them.
I believe you and always have.

Speaker 4 (02:56):
Just don't be mad when you see me out here
representing mine. Be mad when you see me out here
rooting for everybody black. Don't be mad when you see
me out here hiring black people for any open position
I got.

Speaker 3 (03:06):
You can call it racism. I'll call it preference. Now.

Speaker 4 (03:09):
The reason I have to give a bake donkey of
to day as well is because when he was on
the Breakfast Club earlier this year, I asked him does
he believed GOP would ever vote for an Indian like
himself or Nikki Haley?

Speaker 3 (03:19):
We all know the answer that is, by the way,
and I believe he does too. He just has the
audacity of hope.

Speaker 4 (03:25):
Let's listen to the question and answer, do you think
a person of color could ever be the GOP nominee?

Speaker 3 (03:29):
Yes? Absolutely, because I read an.

Speaker 4 (03:32):
Article in the Nation that said you and Nikki Haley
can't escape GOP racism. And the article says you two
are boxed in by the bigotry that you deny exist.

Speaker 3 (03:41):
What do you think of that?

Speaker 1 (03:42):
So I'll tell you what probably the bigger obstacle was
for me. It wasn't skin color, and I still don't
think it's irresolvable obstacle, but it was religion. I'm Hindu,
and you know, I think the easy thing you're supposed
to do as a politician is, even if you're not
claimed to be Christian, check the bobs, maybe shorten your
name a little bit, make it easier to pronounce. Would

(04:04):
that in the short run help my electoral chances? A
lot of people were professionals that DIN certainly say it would.
But as I told you, my whole approach to politics
is I'm gonna tell you who I am and what
I stand for. And I am a religious.

Speaker 3 (04:15):
Person, then religion is the reason the GOP. No, No,
not at all, not at all.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
But I'm saying that if I had to pick even
between the two factors, it's not even race.

Speaker 3 (04:23):
No, FORVIC, it's all of it. Okay, is your skin
color is your religion?

Speaker 4 (04:27):
She told you right there she couldn't vote for you
because you're Indian and she wanted a white Anglo Saxon
Anglo Saxon Protestant for president. Okay, these people are who
they are, and I'm not mad at them. I just
find it hilarious that people of color like veg Ramaswami
think these folks aren't who we know them to be.

Speaker 3 (04:45):
VAC. Remember when that conservative website Babylon.

Speaker 4 (04:48):
B was accused of racism because they said that Donald
Trump promised you a cabinet position running the White House
seven eleven convenience store. That is how they think of you. Okay,
every Indian stereotype you think of, from seven to eleven
to how you smell has probably been said about you
or to you. But you have to eat it because
you are a hell bent on being a part of

(05:09):
that good old boy club. Okay, I've heard but vig say,
don't call him Indian American because he's an American first.

Speaker 3 (05:16):
Okay, not that them, vivic, not to them.

Speaker 4 (05:19):
I understand you say, hey, I'm proud of my Indian heritage,
but you will still be quick to say I'm American first.
Are when asked by voters about your Hindu faith, you
will be quick to emphasize it.

Speaker 3 (05:27):
It allows you to hold Judeo Christian values.

Speaker 4 (05:30):
See, when you ran for president, you had to appeal
to a Republican electorate that was heavily white and Christian.

Speaker 3 (05:35):
I get it, you was trying to win votes.

Speaker 4 (05:38):
But just because you're lying to them doesn't mean you
have to lie for them. They are who they are,
and they will never, at least not in our lifetime,
be able to see who you are because they will
be too focused.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
On what you are.

Speaker 4 (05:52):
Yes, you will always be boxed in by the bigotry
that you deny exist. Do you see it yet? Please
get van Kolta in bak ramaswam the biggest.

Speaker 3 (06:05):
He huffed, m full yeah, all all right, well thank
you for that. Donkey Today sir, Yes, indeed.

Speaker 4 (06:18):
Donkey of Today is sponsored by renowned personal injury attorney
Michael to Bull lambing Soft. Don't be a donkey when
you need a fighter on your side. If you're ever injured,
go to Michael to bull dot com. That's Michael to
bull dot com. And when you mess with the bull,
