Man on Fox Berates ‘Racist’ Obama: ‘He Defended Every Black Person That Caused a Crime’

While interviewing Florida voters this morning, Fox News’ Abby Huntsman came across one older white gentleman who not only vehemently disagreed with those protesting Donald Trump’s election, but also weighed in on the current president’s views on race.

Speaking from a Fort Myers diner, the voter told protesters to “grow up” because it doesn’t “prove anything,” further commenting that it shows a “disrespect for the law.”

He then moved on to President Barack Obama, placing the blame firmly on POTUS’s shoulders for this attitude.

“I hate to say it but when President Obama got elected, things started going downhill because he himself was a racist,” he said.

“He defended every, um, every black person that caused a crime but he would say anything if they…,” he continued, before Huntsman interrupted.

“I don’t know that Obama is a racist,” she insisted. “Well, I’m saying his policies were racist,” the Florida man responded.
