7. A good number of them are just as racist and cruel - I would bet about 25-30%

Even for the ones that claim not to be racist - they are way too damn comfortable with racism.
For example, I saw a clip of Savannah Chrisley guest hosting on The View. ( If you recall, she spoke at the RNC and trump pardoned her parents)
Well, she went on to tell us that trump is not racist. She knows he's not racist because "he helped her black friend".

She was so adamant of her defense. A white woman who grew up privileged - never having to face the harshness of racism or discrimination herself. Never having to think about her skin color and how it affects any aspect of her life telling - that she is so sure that trump is not racist.
I don't know if she is racist herself. But she is way too damn comfortable with racism.

My other pet peeve- Why was she even given this guest host position?
What qualification does she have?
She does not bring any experience, expertise - She seems incapable of having nuanced discussions.
It boggles my mind that Rogan, the guy from Fear Factor is now some king maker in politics and millions of people take advice from him.
Same thing here, why should anyone listen to anything Savannah Chrisley has to say about politics or current events?
