MASTERS MOMENT: The One Where He Blames Racism on President Obama
PHOENIX — Welcome to today’s ‘Masters Moment’ — a daily opportunity to shine light on Blake Masters’ out-of-touch, offensive, and disqualifying beliefs and opinions.
Over the next 78 days, the ‘Masters Moment’ will be your number one source for all things Masters. While he attempts a desperate pivot to hide his “fringe,” “extreme,” and “dangerous” ideas, every day we’ll be releasing the audio and video to prove, in his own words, who Masters really is – and that he’s a risk Arizonans can’t afford.
Today’s moment, where he blames America’s first Black president for racial tension:
Masters: “I think that people forget — in the early 2000’s — the racial tensions that we see now and the obsession that the Left has with dividing people by race. It didn’t really exist. I think that was a product of the Obama administration,” (Viva & Barnes Podcast, 11/24/21).
