KIRK: “Of course she’s a DEI hire.”
(...)
BURCHETT: “One hundred percent, she was a DEI hire.”
(...)
Schmitt: “An incompetent diversity hire.”
(...)
GORKA: “This woman, this disaster, whose only ‘qualification’ was having a vagina and the right skin color.”
[Clip ends]

CHARLAMAGNE THA GOD: “That’s right. Having dark skin and a vagina is an instant path to the Oval Office, all right? If you don’t believe me, take it up with Ronald Reagan’s black pussy.
(Laughter and Applause)
Listen, man, this argument is so stupid to me. If being a woman or a minority was the golden ticket to getting ahead in politics, then President Andrew Yang would have already done universal basic income, and President Kanye West would have already changed the national anthem to ‘Gold Digger.’Okay? I mean, I’ve looked at pictures of the last 46 presidents, and it sure seems like there’s one identity in particular that gives you a leg up: (Whispers) White man! I’m just saying, Donald Trump would not have gotten the job if his first name was ‘Donnell,’ all right? He’d be evicting himself from his own apartments before his career could begin.
(Cheering and Applause)
But for the sake of argument, let’s suppose Kamala was given a chance because of her identity. She still had to do something with it on her own. And Kamala has done a great job as vice president. Remember that one big thing she did? Me neither! Okay? And that’s exactly what you want in a VP: someone who doesn’t make the news! A VP is like a carbon monoxide detector. You want to have one, but if it makes any noise, something’s gone wrong.
(Cheering and Applause)
In fact, the last time I remember a vice president doing anything that made the news, it was this.”

Reporter: “Vice President Dick Cheney apparently broke the number one rule of hunting this weekend when he accidentally shot a friend in the face.”
[Clip ends]

(Laughter and Applause)

CHARLAMAGNE THA GOD: “Yeah, ‘accidentally.’ Just like he ‘accidentally’ invaded the wrong country after 9/11. Now that I think about it, Dick Cheney made the news a lot.”
