Nick Cannon has gotten candid about his political views.

Model Amber Rose joined the comedian in a recent episode of his show, Great engineHe called the Democratic Party “the party of the Ku Klux Klan.”

After Rose claimed that Democrats “don’t care about black people, they don’t care about people of color, like Republicans do,” Cannon responded: “I agree with you 100 percent.”

The Masked Singer The host continued, “People don’t know that Democrats are the party of the Ku Klux Klan. People don’t know that Republicans are the party that freed the slaves. I mean, you and I have some conservative views. You’re just a little more outspoken than I am. And frankly, I don’t subscribe to either party. I’m swinging with Webb DuBois, when he said there’s no such thing as two parties. It’s just an evil party with two different names.”

Rose added that she is “not married to any party” but voted for Donald Trump in the 2024 US presidential election because “we had two choices and he was definitely the best one for us.”

When she said she mostly agreed with the way Trump’s second term was going, Cannon jumped in with enthusiasm, saying: “He cleans the f***er’s house. He’s doing what he said he was going to do.”

Several years later, then-President Abraham Lincoln, a member of the Republican Party, issued the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863, freeing all slaves living in the Confederate states who were against the Union. Slavery was officially abolished in the United States when the Thirteenth Amendment was passed in 1865.
