Video: Race-baiting leftist Joy Reid dumps all over 'white Christians' for backing Trump amid Iowa caucuses

Far-left MSNBC host Joy Reid smeared "white Christians" for their support of former President Donald Trump amid the Iowa caucuses, which he ended up winning handily Monday night.

What are the details?

Reid sat on a pundit panel commenting on the caucus results and condescendingly interjected a "data point" regarding Iowa voters that "these are white Christians" before adding that "this is a state that is over-represented by white Christians" and — if her bias wasn't clear enough already — that "this is a hyper-evangelical white state."

She went on to say that Robbie Jones of the Public Religion Research Institute told her earlier in the day that "Iowa is about 61% white Christian; the country as a whole is approximately 41% white Christian."

Reid noted that "in Iowa, we're talking about evangelical white Christians" — putting notable verbal emphasis on the letter "e" in "evangelical" as if it were a put-down.

She said she asked Jones, "'What do they get out of supporting Donald Trump? Because he keeps losing; he keeps delivering losses and losses and losses.' And he said the following: 'They see themselves as the rightful inheritors of this country, and Trump has promised to give it back to them.’"

Then Reid piled on: "All the things that we think about, about electability ... none of that matters when you believe that God has given you this country, that it is yours, and that everyone who is not a white, conservative Christian is a fraudulent American, is a less real American. Then you don’t care about electability. You care about what God has given you."

Fox News reported that later in the night Reid had more to say on the subject: "It is religion, and I think what we have to actually confront — and this is what the Democrats are going to face — is this is now what white evangelicalism is. It is Christian nationalism. That’s the name of it, right?"

The news network added that Reid also said "white evangelical Christians of a certain mindset" believe "that they own this country, that immigrants, that brown people, that Hindus like Vivek Ramaswamy and his wife, are illegitimate Americans. They are less legitimate Americans than they are."

Fox News also reported that Reid said, "They’re not trying to convince people and win people over through politics. What they’re saying is, ‘We own this country, and everyone will bow down to us.’"
