817: Sellout Politics

Ben Carson on Political Parties and Jim Crow

Ben Carson defends Donald Trump's complaints about the Republican delegate system, comparing arbitrary party rules to the Jim Crow era. He argues that political parties are private clubs that disenfranchise voters through complex regulations. The hosts analyze the RNC's response, led by Reince Priebus, which maintains that the rules were clearly established and available to all candidates.
