Nick Cannon Slams Democrats as the ‘Party of the KKK’ and Backs Trump’s Agenda

Nick Cannon recently made headlines for his outspoken political views during an episode of his web talk show, Big Drive (via TMZ). The actor and TV host caused a stir when he called the Democratic Party “the party of the KKK.”

The conversation began when Cannon’s guest, model Amber Rose, claimed that Democrats “don’t care about people of color and the Republicans do.”

Cannon agreed with her, saying, “I agree with you 100%. People don’t know that the Democrats are the party of the KKK. People don’t know that the Republicans are the party that freed the slaves. I mean, both of you and I have some conservative views. You’re just a little bit more outspoken than I am. And honestly, I don’t subscribe to either party. I rock with W. E. B. Du Bois, when he said there’s no such thing as two parties. It’s just one evil party with two different names.”

Cannon also shared his thoughts on President Donald Trump, praising his leadership in a hypothetical second term. “Mother*****’s cleaning house,” Cannon said, adding that Trump is “doing what he said he was gonna do.” He also made a colorful comparison about border control, joking, “We got the Gulf of America now. He’s like the club. He’s charging a $5 million bottle service fee to get into the country.”

While Cannon criticized Democrats for their historical ties to the Ku Klux Klan, historians note that only certain factions of the party were involved in the post-Civil War rise of the KKK. His comments about Republicans were partially accurate: the party was founded in the 1850s by anti-slavery activists, and President Abraham Lincoln, a Republican, signed the Emancipation Proclamation in 1861. Slavery was officially abolished with the ratification of the 13th Amendment in 1865.

Cannon’s remarks have sparked debate online, as fans and critics discuss his interpretations of history and his political stance.
