Democrat says Democrats are racists: Iowa editon

MSNBC's Zerlina Maxwell says Iowa Democrats are racist:

"Maybe I'll be the only person to say this today. The Iowa caucus is essentially the perfect example of systemic racism. 91% of the voters in Iowa are white. The reason why you see a drop in turnout -- I'm just speculating here -- it could be perhaps that white children are not in the cages. So when you're talking about the tangible pain that black and brown people are feeling, they feel a sense of urgency because their kids are being put in cages. Right? And so if you have a 91% white electorate, that sense of urgency may not be reflected in the turnout numbers. I'm not saying that's the reason for this. It could be a factor."

Note that she's talking about Iowa Democrats not about Iowa residents in general since only Iowa Democrats show up at Democrat caucuses.

What's also odd is that the whole kids in cages meme has been disproven over and over and I'm pretty sure that Ms. Maxwell never complained when Obama did the same things to kids that Trump is.

But what's more interesting is that it's Hispanic kids who are suffering because their parents try and sneak into the country illegally.  So why would Black's have a sense of urgency about that if whites only care about whites?

Essentially what Ms. Maxwell is saying is very racist; only people of color care about other people, all white people--including Democrats--only care about their own race.

Yet of course no one in the #FakeNews media will call her out on this.
