Joy-ann Reid kicks ex-congressman J.D. Hayworth off her show for racist comments (VIDEO)

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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?

"Are you trying to talk over me? They'll cut off one mic, and it won't be mine." That usually shuts them up, but if it doesn't, she just throws them out of her "courtroom."

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.
