“President Obama couldn’t have done it,” Bryant said during a criminal justice reform panel discussion at the National Governors Association winter meeting in Washington, D.C.
“Because quite honestly, a lot of us probably would’ve screamed and hollered, ‘Oh, oh my goodness, he’s gonna turn ‘em all out on our communities, and there’s gonna be pillaging and crime, and — there they go again’.”

When the Republican Governor of Mississippi speaks truth like this... wait nvm. thethe and sturg are the authorities on the knowledge of Post-Racist America. We know if BO tried for criminal justice reform (which btw he did try the last 2 years of his second term), the people who bought into the Mexico only sends gangbangers and rapists garbage being spouted by 45's mouth would have said the same things Bryant said in the quote above. I remember when he was leaving office and gave a bunch of pardons to non-violent drug offenders, the right wingers on facebook were not happy about it at all.
But it's easier to blame the left.
This is the type of stuff nscapi is talking about when he mentions the MAGA hat being a symbol of shame and embarrassment that we'll look at years from now.
