A C-SPAN caller told "Washington Journal" guest Donna Brazile that she hates and despises Republicans and hopes "they go now and burn in hell” during a segment Tuesday morning.
Brazile, a former CNN political analyst and interim Democratic National Committee chairwoman, joined the call-in show in-studio to discuss the upcoming midterm elections, which many political analysts and pollsters believe could put the House back in Democratic control for the first time in eight years.
“From our independent line, a caller from Georgia, Carol. Hello, you’re on with Donna Brazile," host Pedro Echevarria said introducing the call.
"Good morning, Donna," the Georgia caller said to Brazile. “I love you and I think that you are on spot. We as African-American women, I have been out canvassing, I got 500 people that I have registered that are going to vote Democratic this year."
"We have a Klansman who’s walking around, threatening things to African-Americans, drawing guns. He is just like that Klansman, the head of the clan that occupies the White House," she continued. "He is not only a groper of women, he is a murderer. I wouldn’t vote for a Republican if God came down sitting in the middle of me. I hate and despise them and I hope they go now and burn in hell.”
“Well, Carol, we know how you feel," Brazile replied. "First of all, Dr. [Martin Luther] King once said, ‘Let no man, no person bring you so low as to hate them.’ So, I don’t hate anyone. I try to practice what I preach. It is difficult, I know, at times to disagree with someone without becoming what I call petty and hateful."
Tensions are high between Democrats and Republicans following the bitterly partisan confirmation of new Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
Both sides increasingly see the midterms "very important.”
An Oct. 3 NPR poll taken after the testimonies of Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasey Ford showed a 10-point difference between the number of Democrats and Republicans saying the November elections were "very important." NPR's most recent poll has that number down to two points, a statistical dead heat.
Overall, 80 percent of Republicans deem the midterms "important," a 12-point jump from July when only 68 percent felt that way. On the Democratic side, 82 percent say the elections in November are important, a 4-point jump since July.
LOL. C-SPAN is funnier than Comedy Central. It's a lot of fun to watch their YouTube from the 2016 elections though. Hopefully it will be equally fun to watch the midterms.
Hey hilLIAR . . is this the “civility” you were yappin about?
Abraham Lincoln, 16th President of the United States, Republican.
This isn’t the same Donna Brazile who cheated by giving Hillary the debate questions in advance, is it? Naah, couldn’t be.
There are a lot of Democrats voters who are going to be very surprised one day to discover wat God thinks of them spending their whole life voting for Pro-Abortion candidates.
Donna Brazille gave Clinton the debate questions in advance. How does she retain credibility?
You stay CLASSEY, DEMONCRATS!!
It shows how stupid and ignorant these hateful, mindless, useless dolts are....
The Dem Brain(LOL) Implants must be malfunctioning ,LOL
She double-talked her way out of that by claiming it was a Town Hall, not a debate, and we often go over talking points with candidates based on our core research, blah, blah, blah...
LOL!!! Sorry caller...no room at the inn. Too many libs and RINOS taking up space there.
Kinda harsh. She doesnt even know most of us.
Which tell me she is far more interested in her ideological hatred then the saving Grace of Almighty God. I pity these types as they are willfully blinded with an irrational hatred that is consuming them. I would wager that she cannot point out one thing that an actual Republican has done to her that generated such vitriol.
Send us a weather report when you get there Donna. hopefully soon.
One of the few on the Democrat side that has some effectiveness. An old time politician who needs to be carefully watched.
There are dozens that get press time but few as effective at getting that Party to work together.
Because she’s an Affirmative Action Jackson
No other reason
I used to wonder how Hitler got people to kill for him
Today’s young socialists seem like they would be happy to, if they knew they had tacit government approval.
Does C-SPAN not have the time delay that talk radio uses, to delete hateful or obscene calls?
On spot???
