Tucker Carlson Called Kamala Harris Samoan As An Insult, And As A Samoan Woman, I'm Yelling, "WTF"

By now, you've probably heard all about the racist remarks at Sunday's Madison Square Garden Trump rally. But I want to focus on one statement in particular from Tucker Carlson.

During his speech, the former Fox News talk show host said, "It’s gonna be pretty hard to look at us and say, 'You know what? Kamala Harris, she got 85 million votes because she’s just so impressive as the first Samoan-Malaysian, low-IQ, former California prosecutor ever to be elected president.' It was just a groundswell of popular support, and anyone who thinks otherwise is just a freak or a criminal."

As a Samoan woman, I am absolutely livid that a political commentator would use my race as an insult. And combining it with Malaysian? Was this supposed to be funny?

It's not okay to misidentify Kamala as Malaysian either, but I'm focusing on the Samoan aspect of his comments since I can speak to that experience.

I cannot understand how people can be paid to spread misinformation and ugliness at such a level. What on earth is Putin (or Trump) doing for him that makes it worth while? Or is it just the ratings?
