Nick Cannon Calls the Democratic Party 'the Party of the KKK'
The Hollywood Reporter • • entertainment
Key Points:
- Nick Cannon expressed strong criticism of the Democratic Party, calling it “the party of the KKK” during an episode of his show Big Drive, agreeing with Amber Rose's claim that Democrats “don’t care about Black people.”
- Cannon stated that Republicans were the party that freed the slaves and said he does not fully align with either political party, citing W.E.B. Du Bois’s view that both parties are essentially one “evil party with two different names.”
- Amber Rose revealed she voted for Donald Trump in the 2024 election, believing he was the better option, and Cannon praised Trump’s actions during his second term, suggesting he is “cleaning house.”
- While Cannon’s claim about the KKK being founded by Democrats is partially true in that some founders were Democrats in the post-Civil War South, the group itself was not established solely by the Democratic Party, according to the Associated Press.
