Cameron from Georgia is so deep in the cult that he’d convinced himself he wasn’t
Welcome to The Signorile Report, where you’ll read hard-hitting political commentary and exposés, hear interesting conversations, join in great discussions and get lots of other stuff.
Okay, well this one started out calm but devolved into F bombs — yes, on my part.
I’m just not going to allow lies to be spewed on the air and, frankly, am not going to put up with racists claiming they voted for Trump not because they like him but because they had to stop the “left-wing agenda.”
In a discussion about Joe Biden commenting on whether or not Donald Trump should attend Biden’s inauguration, Cameron called in from Georgia to my SiriusXM show, and began by saying he didn’t want to “start any arguments.”
But that was in fact the purpose of his entire call, soon getting combative and hurling false charges.
Cameron tried to equate Trump’s refusal to concede the 2020 election with Democrats opposing Trump’s fascistic presidency — even as Democrats acknowledged Trump won in 2016, an election that was much closer than 2020.
I posed a series of “yes” or “no” questions to him — for example, “Did Hillary Clinton concede the election [in 2016] the day after the election?” — and while forced to answer “yes” to all of them he then veered off and claimed Nancy Pelosi did’t attend the inauguration, which is a blatant lie.
After pushing disinformation, Cameron then tried to divert to other issues, and soon claimed, “I am not a Trump supporter” but said that he just had to vote for Trump.
It got pretty heated from there. Some people will think I went too far, or lost my cool, and maybe I did.
Also, I’m sure some would say that someone who says they don’t like Trump but had to vote for him “to stop the left-wing agenda” isn’t necessarily racist. But I disagree completely. Anyone who voted for Trump in 2020 voted for a racist and bigot who engaged in horrendous actions against so many groups. No excuse to vote for such a candidate absolves the voter, who voted for a racist. End of story.
Listen in and let me know what you think. Thanks!
Georgia voter claims he's "not a Trump supporter" but "had to" vote for Trump
It is segments like this, where you stand up so beautifully to Trump cultists and expose just how delusional and bereft of facts and divorced from reality they are that make your show such a great pleasure to listen to. Michelangelo your show is keeping me sane! xoxo
Nancy Pelosi was not Speaker of the House again until January 03, 2019 after the 2018 mid terms when the Democrats added 40 new seats and regained the majority in the Congress so the caller is either an idiot or an liar. Paul Ryan was still the Speaker when Trump became president left as soon as he had assurances that he'd have a soft and well paid position awaiting him. The Boehner became the Speaker and was hard pressed to deal with the radical Tea Party sorts and Trump sycophants in the GOP caucus which he now routinely calls crazy! And truth be told Trump was illegitimate once you recognize all the voter suppression and Gerrymandering they engage in and the fact he lost the popular vote by 3 million votes not to mention the fact of what Comey did at the last minute reopening the sham investigation concerning Clinton's use of a private server for govt. business which she felt compelled to do because of Republican efforts to railroad her for trumped up charges and is something plenty of others have done in the past when it was known to be not sanctioned such as SoS Albright, SoS Powell, and numerous other cabinet officers and politicians. Its like the Sherman-Anti Trust Act (a law virtually not enforced in modern times). No Democratic State AGs filed suit to overturn the 2016 election. No concerted effort was made to prevent Trump from taking office nor did anyone make violent threats to election officials though I'm certain the 2016 was a right wing robbery. Now threats of all sorts are being made by Republicans including civil war. If these right wing sons of bitches think they can impose Trump on us again you can kiss our democratic republic goodbye and you'll get your goddamn civil war because a lot of still patriotic Americans many of them veterans will not stand for it. And no the South Carolinian Congressman who shouted "You Lie!" at Obama Joe Wilson is still in the House and he fund raised on the spectacle he made of himself. The Republican Party is now nothing more than a racist authoritarian gang of criminals and traitors. The early years of my life withstood the specter of Joe McCarthy and now in my senior years this right wing one party BS they are projecting. So nothings changed with Republicans during the whole of my life thus far. They are a disgrace to America and themselves and we should never see them as nothing but enemies within our great nation.
