Chris Matthews: 10-20% Of America Dont Support Obama Because They Believe ‘White Race Must Rule’

Chris Matthews’ toxic anti-conservative vitriol has spread onto other MSNBC shows, infecting them with his slanderous language. It is no secret that Matthews opposes the Tea Party as extremists, often times accusing them of outright racism towards President Obama.

Appearing on PoliticsNation with racist host Al Sharpton, Chris Matthews disgustingly claimed that a full 10-20 percent of this country:

[w]ant this president to have an asterisk next to his name in the history books that he really wasn't president… They can't stand the idea that he is president. And a piece of it is racism. Not that somebody in one racial group doesn't like somebody in another racial group. So what? It is the sense that the white race must rule. [See video after jump. MP3 audio here.]

Matthews’ racist rhetoric didn’t stop there, essentially claiming that 20 percent of the nation are outright racist, although he had no evidence to back up the number he seemed to pull out of thin air:

That's what racism is. And they can't stand the idea that a man who is not white is president. That is real. That sense of racial superiority and rule is in the hearts of some people in this country.

To Matthews, a large percentage of the objection people have to Obama is racially motivated, disguised as dissatisfaction with things such as ObamaCare:

He wasn't really wasn’t the first African-American president. He really didn't do health care. He really didn't kill Bin Laden. There’s an asterisk. And they've been fighting for that, the people like Donald Trump since day 1. They can't stand the idea that he is president.

Unsurprisingly, NewsNation host Sharpton agreed with Matthews’ racist comments, saying that objection to Obama goes beyond garden-variety racism to white supremacy:

And you take away everything. And because that's what white supremacy is. And that's not calling all of them that. But clearly there is an element there.

Such charges are baseless and unsubstantiated and unfit for broadcasters to spew on air on an alleged news program, but this is par for the course for MSNBC.

It's just a convenient but foolish way to defend Obama against his adversaries when just about all else fails.

Indeed. Thanks for the ping!

And now we can clearly see WHY Matthews show has been canceled by MSNBC.

A DICKWEED of the highest order.

Way to throw hard-working whites who simply want to live free under the bus, Chris Matthews. But these days it’s the easiest thing to do.

So when will Chris Matthews be taking his family and moving to a black ruled city or suburb just to put his money where his mouth is. To show us he’s keeping it real. I’ll bet where I live is 10x more diverse than where he parks his fat arse.

When is children were of school age he should have taken his family and moved to a very diverse neighborhood and put them in the public schools.

Just look at that racist Obama. He sends his girls to a predominantly white and Asian school private school. How come he doesn’t send them to the black dominated DC public schools?

The most racist (White) people in America are White hick democrats in the rural south and border states, people that happily voted for Gore and Kerry and still hate Republicans because their great great great grandpappy fought in the civil war and because conservatives would shut of flow of pork barrel spending that they rely on. Those are the only people that voted against Obama BECAUSE he’s “Black”. They’d gladly vote for Biden or Hillary.

But Crissy wouldn’t want to call them out now would he.
