Joy-ann Reid tried her best to get J.D. Hayworth to have an intelligent conversation on the plight of immigrants under the draconian policies of Donald Trump. He made everything many believe of his party a reality.
Reid gave ex-Congressman J.D. Hayworth and host of Newsmax Prime as much latitude as she could but ultimately had to kick him off of her show. The entire segment was volatile as Hayworth attempted to monopolize the conversation. But the two snippets in the excerpted video shows his mindset on race and ethnicity. Reid could eventually take it no more.

(1,074 posts)When Hayworth told Rosie Perez that she and other Hollywood celebrities should sponsor undocumented workers, Rosie said, "How does that solve the problem?? That is government's job!" I just couldn't take it anymore...I wrote a message to Joy and Hayworth (I couldn't figure out how to contact Rosie). I said that when Trump complained during Obama's Presidency that the deficit was too high, I asked, "I wonder if Hayworth suggested Trump and his grown children donate their money to help offset the deficit!" Hey...Hayworth seems to think that ordinary citizens should resolve issues that the government isn't taking care of so I thought it was appropriate for me to ask that question!

(4,407 posts)We are forgetting the old rule that any publicity is good publicity. We can't "expose" them on these shows. Trump's stupidity was repeatedly exposed and that took him right into the White House. I have officially decided to never watch anything having to do with Bill Maher again for giving just such a platform.

(2,434 posts)this fool thought he could shout and yell and she would allow it. She truly tried to give him a chance, but he was so boorish and over-the-top, she finally gave up. I'm glad she tries and hope that she will continue as I love to see it when she shuts them down.

(34,136 posts)And over Joy. Even after the other guest told him, " I didn't interrupt you, let me talk." AND after Joy told him to let the other guest speak, Hayworth kept running his mouth. I was yelling for Joy to shut his mike off. He'd had his say but wasn't going to let anyone else have theirs!
What a piece of scum.

(18,652 posts)The media should have one of those emergency messages that comes on: "This program is interrupted due to fake news and lies from guest (name guest)."

(63,912 posts)at one point Joy just dismissed him with a toss of her head. And he was beset by 3 women giving him shit.
We women ought to do that to all of those smiling assholes...

(19,863 posts)...this was Joy's MO all throughout the primaries and the GE. I read somewhere that she is no longer working under contract with MSNBC. But I sure hope that is rectified as she is a top-notch political investigator and reporter.

(63,912 posts)I bet he was sorry he tangled with her and her female guests. These clueless guys don't have anything in the way of a response. The pocahontas things was so old and lame it was laughable. Who elected this bonehead? I'm glad he's now unelected. What a maroon!

I'm sure he walked his a$$ out of there thinking he'd just set the world straight and went to tell the other "good ole' boys" how he kicked their collective a$$es and put those b*t*hes in their place.
Oh, my, we have SO much work to do. After the disaster that was "W" - how could we have let it come to this?

I was not suggesting all is lost - quite the contrary! Complacency is what got us here.
So, we MUST fight - and - RESIST!!!!!!

(1,180 posts)Hayworth started as a Sportscaster on the the local TV News in the early 90s. He tapped into the racist, bigoted element in Maricopa County (can you say Joa Arpaio) to go from Sports -to- right wing talk radio -to -Congress. He was never known to be very smart or well versed.
