Stumping with Trump in Nevada, Senator says Dems 'procrime,' reparations 'bullsh**'
"MINDEN, Nev. -- Republican Sen. Tommy Tuberville asserted that Democrats support reparations for the descendants of enslaved people because "they think the people that do the crime are owed that."
The first-term Alabama Republican spoke at a Saturday evening rally in Nevada featuring former President Donald Trump, a political ally. His comments were part of a broader critique in the final weeks before the Nov. 8 election, when control of Congress is at stake, about how Democrats have responded to rising crime rates. But Tuberville's remarks about reparations played into racist stereotypes about Black people committing crimes.
"They're not soft on crime," Tuberville said of Democrats. "They're pro-crime. They want crime. They want crime because they want to take over what you got. They want to control what you have. They want reparation because they think the people that do the crime are owed that.""
