SPIKE LEE TRASHES CLINTONS, THEIR BLACK SUPPORTERS


[New York Times]

The New York Times Magazine quotes Spike Lee on the Clinton’s and the black politicians who support Hillary’s presidential bid:

The Clintons, man, they would lie on a stack of Bibles. Snipers? That’s not misspeaking; that’s some pure bullshit. I voted for Clinton twice, but that’s over with. These old black politicians say, “Ooh, Massuh Clinton was good to us, massuh hired a lot of us, massuh was good!” Hoo! Charlie Rangel, David Dinkins—they have to understand this is a new day. People ain’t feelin’ that stuff. It’s like a tide, and the people who get in the way are just gonna get swept out into the ocean.”

Would this be “playing the race card”?
