CLAY: What would Martin Luther King himself think about modern-day critical race theory and its assault upon traditional American values, Rush Limbaugh discussed that. Listen.
RUSH: Dr. King, one of his most famous passages was that he hoped that his kids someday would grow up in a country where — I’m paraphrasing — the content of their character was the single greatest determining factor about the kind of people they were, rather than the color of their skin. Now, Dr. King — and I have no problem saying this at all — Dr. King would not recognize the modern iteration of the Democrat Party.
He did believe in nonviolence. And he might have had a political motivation now and then of playing, throwing down the race card, but that was not who he was. It was not the defining thing about Dr. King. And so much is being done in his name that he never supported. I think he would be shocked, probably is. But it’s kind of like saying the same of JFK. JFK would not be welcomed into the Democrat Party today.
JFK believed in tax cuts, for example, and a whole lot of other conservative economic principles. And yet all of these things that the Democrat Party supposedly believes in are being done in the name of people like JFK, but more importantly, Dr. King. And I’m telling you Dr. King would not recognize the Democrat Party today. And I have no compunction saying that he wouldn’t want any part of it, or a large part of it.
BUCK: It’s interesting, Clay, that the Democrat Party today — and Rush there really understanding their misunderstanding on the Democrat side of what the vision of the country was from Martin Luther King. They embraced treating people differently, and this is at the heart of CRT.
CRT, it’s an acronym, and it’s really just that this is an oppressive, racist country, and you have to put a leftist elite in charge of balancing that out or else the racism just perpetuates and we live in a society of constant injustice, misery, and people just feeling like they can’t get fair treatment anywhere. Instead of the country that I think we all know we live in which is the best, freest, most amazing country that’s ever existed, still, even with all of its problems.
CLAY: What it essentially says is your identity defines you, and I don’t know about all of you, but I certainly think the things that I can’t choose are the least interesting thing about me. I didn’t choose my race. I didn’t choose my gender. To me, those are the least interesting things about me. I’m more interested in the choices that people make as individuals than I am the things that you have no control over.
