Nick Cannon is showing his true colors. And spoiler alert: they’re red.
The father of 12 was happy to admit he proudly stands with Donald Trump during a new episode of his Big Drive interview show on Friday. While chatting with known Republican Amber Rose, she claimed Democrats “don’t care about people of color and the Republicans do.” And Nick didn’t even take a beat to agree:
“I agree with you 100%. People don’t know that the Democrats are the party of the KKK. People don’t know that the Republicans are the party that freed the slaves.”
The Wild ‘n Out host, of course, is referring to the Democratic party’s past ties to the KKK and the fact that Republican President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863. But it wasn’t until the House of Representatives passed the 13th Amendment in 1865, followed by a state majority ratification, that slavery was abolished in the US. Also worth noting, the Democratic Party did not found the KKK, and the party itself realigned in the ‘60s when the southern segregationist subsect known as the Dixiecrats left.

Speaking on Amber’s political views, Nick goes on:
“I mean, both of you and I have some conservative views. You’re just a little bit more outspoken than I am. And honestly, I don’t subscribe to either party. I rock with W. E. B. Du Bois, when he said there’s no such thing as two parties. It’s just one evil party with two different names.”
On Trump’s second term, he enthusiastically said “that motherf**ker is cleaning house. He’s doing what he said he was going to do.” He also joked the convicted felon is running the US like a club:
“We got the Gulf of America now. He’s like the club. He’s charging a $5 million bottle service fee to get into the country.”
Trump’s proposed Gold Card would allow wealthy foreigners to purchase permanent residency in the US for $5 million.
Well, that’s certainly a candid look into Cannon’s political views! Reactions, Perezcious readers? Are you surprised to hear this news?
