The Republican Muslim guy Rachel Maddow had on her show last night?
She asked him(paraphrasing here), why he would want to belong to a political party that uses the tactic of attacking him and his religion to satisfy their racist base?
I listened to his answer but I either didn't listen close enough or it didn't make sense but I would like to read it if possible. Is there transcript for last lights show?
I caught part of late version last night and was in bed half asleep. Was it Chris Hayes who had the guy on or did I see this exchange the night before?
Not sure about a transcript though. Basically, he said he thought that bigotry wasn't a part of being GOP, that he favored GOP because of 'traditional platforms' like 'individual liberty' and 'state and local control.' Something like that. Just going from memory and I wasn't paying that much attention.
