Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: We got a question for our American mamas. Dear mama's,
- 0:02Speaker 1: will you still get smoothies at Smoothie King anymore? Well,
- 0:07Speaker 1: let's ask our American mama's.
- 0:10Speaker 2: Mama, mama, she said, and joining us now our American
- 0:22Speaker 2: mamas turn Oedville and Kimberly Burleson.
- 0:25Speaker 1: So there's a story out of some customers, apparently Trump
- 0:29Speaker 1: supporting customers went into a Smoothie King. The staff and
- 0:32Speaker 1: the Smoothie King went, oh, we're not serving you. You're
- 0:35Speaker 1: not welcome here. You're welcome to leave, and they were
- 0:38Speaker 1: This whole thing's gone viral now and Smoothie King's come
- 0:41Speaker 1: out and said, well, this is not who we are
- 0:42Speaker 1: and it's caused a kerfuffle. What'd you think when you first
- 0:46Speaker 1: saw the story.
- 0:47Speaker 3: Well, when I first saw the story, I thought, of course,
- 0:49Speaker 3: of course, you don't see it on the right, you'll
- 0:51Speaker 3: see it on the left. But then I went darker. Well,
- 0:55Speaker 3: I went darker. I went darker because I thought about
- 0:58Speaker 3: all the videos and the reels I've seen of medical
- 1:00Speaker 3: people in the medical profession saying that they wish that
- 1:04Speaker 3: Caroline Levitt's child would die, or if you come in
- 1:08Speaker 3: here and you haven't had the job. We're going to
- 1:10Speaker 3: give you the job while you're sedated. You know, just
- 1:13Speaker 3: all the negativity that I realized watching that. I am
- 1:17Speaker 3: afraid of liberals because I think there is this part
- 1:20Speaker 3: of them that is unhinged because you don't see it.
- 1:23Speaker 3: No liberal has to worry about their food being spit in,
- 1:27Speaker 3: or their medical any medical thing being harmed, them being
- 1:33Speaker 3: harmed by the medical profession, whereas we do. We have
- 1:37Speaker 3: to think that way, we have to think, we have
- 1:39Speaker 3: to worry. And so it's like, I don't want to
- 1:41Speaker 3: share my politics because I'm so afraid.
- 1:45Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, you make a good point because all of
- 1:49Speaker 4: this seems to happen on the left. And I'm talking
- 1:52Speaker 4: about like going in the school shootings, all the violence
- 1:57Speaker 4: that we have seen, most of the violence that we've seen,
- 2:00Speaker 4: like when I say most, I mean like ninety percent
- 2:03Speaker 4: of it.
- 2:03Speaker 1: Yeah, there's there's a large percentage that transgender shooters is
- 2:06Speaker 1: the Islamic terrorism. Yeah, there's been the violent riots against ice.
- 2:13Speaker 1: There's been the Democrat congressmen in Congress and senators saying
- 2:17Speaker 1: you got to get in their face, you got to
- 2:19Speaker 1: push back. There's been the Republicans who've been chased out.
- 2:21Speaker 4: Of restaurants, right, And it's one of those things that
- 2:24Speaker 4: this is. It starts at the top because we remember
- 2:27Speaker 4: when you had Pelosi and Maxine washing waters. Yeah, you
- 2:30Speaker 4: were telling people to do it, giving them permission, like
- 2:33Speaker 4: they are going to be so proud of you. That's
- 2:35Speaker 4: why a lot of these kids video to themselves being
- 2:37Speaker 4: bullies to people on the right. But I think that
- 2:41Speaker 4: Republicans are getting so tired of it. And you saw
- 2:44Speaker 4: that couple at Smoothie King pushing back, so we just
- 2:48Speaker 4: want a Smoothie King. What it reminded me of, and
- 2:51Speaker 4: this is devastating. It reminded me of the videos that
- 2:54Speaker 4: I saw from the nineteen fifties of the way that
- 2:56Speaker 4: black Americans were treated by like racist.
- 3:00Speaker 1: Whites, okay, especially in the South.
- 3:02Speaker 4: In the South, it devastated me as a child when
- 3:05Speaker 4: I saw those things, the images that we saw in school.
- 3:08Speaker 4: It is very reminiscent of that to me.
- 3:12Speaker 1: And at the time, I think it's important to remember
- 3:14Speaker 1: the South at the time that that was going on
- 3:17Speaker 1: was one hundred percent Democrat controlled. Right, it was the
- 3:20Speaker 1: Democrat Party that ran the South. There's the Democrat Party
- 3:22Speaker 1: that created Jim Crow laws. Is the Democrat Party that
- 3:25Speaker 1: created the KKK. It wasn't until the Democrat Party was
- 3:29Speaker 1: chased out of the South and the Republicans really got
- 3:32Speaker 1: into power in the South when all of that really ended.
- 3:34Speaker 1: And here you are again today and the ones who
- 3:37Speaker 1: are doing this exclusionary behavior seemed to be members of
- 3:41Speaker 1: the Democrat Party.
- 3:41Speaker 4: And again I go back to the media. I don't
- 3:44Speaker 4: know how they were able to make the narrative that
- 3:46Speaker 4: the Democrats are for, you know, for minorities. But my
- 3:50Speaker 4: whole point in even saying that is that when I
- 3:52Speaker 4: see this happening, because it happens all the time, it
- 3:56Speaker 4: is discrimination, it's unfair, it's sad. I will say they
- 4:00Speaker 4: got fired. You know, the headquarters were like, this is
- 4:02Speaker 4: not what we stand for. But Kimerly, it's not enough pushback.
- 4:06Speaker 3: That's my problem. There's not enough pushback. And I don't
- 4:08Speaker 3: think enough Conservatives pushback. We just continue to take it.
- 4:13Speaker 3: We take it and take it and take it. That
- 4:15Speaker 3: there's going to be a boiling point. And that's what
- 4:17Speaker 3: I'm afraid of.
- 4:19Speaker 1: When a conservatives are saying we've.
- 4:21Speaker 3: Had enough, we've had enough. I feel like it's reaching
- 4:24Speaker 3: a boiling point because I think the young white men
- 4:27Speaker 3: in our country, they're just beaten down, beaten down, beaten down.
- 4:30Speaker 3: Conservatives in general beating down. We hate you, we hate you,
- 4:33Speaker 3: and we just take it. We video record it, we
- 4:35Speaker 3: put it on Instagram, like look at this. Nothing changes.
- 4:39Speaker 1: But you know, the last time that conservatives when we've
- 4:42Speaker 1: kind of had enough was January sixth, Right, there's conservatives
- 4:45Speaker 1: out at the Capitol now that there may have been
- 4:48Speaker 1: an incitements going.
- 4:49Speaker 4: Right, I was gonna say, there's a more to that story.
- 4:52Speaker 1: Right, there's a left will say.
- 4:53Speaker 4: Yeah, lefts say because a left planned it. Yeah, that's
- 4:57Speaker 4: a whole nother thing. I can't even go there yet.
- 4:59Speaker 4: But you're right. I do see it build up, and
- 5:02Speaker 4: I do think that there is going to come a time.
- 5:05Speaker 4: And but what I see more than that, I see
- 5:08Speaker 4: a lot of black men on social media, strong black
- 5:11Speaker 4: men who are coming forward, who are seeing things for
- 5:14Speaker 4: what they are and they're trying to squash it on
- 5:17Speaker 4: their side. They're like, wake up, and they're standing with
- 5:20Speaker 4: the white men because y'all have been pummeled these last
- 5:23Speaker 4: eight years. And so I feel like that that there's
- 5:27Speaker 4: there's a shift coming, and it feels good it feels right.
- 5:30Speaker 4: The more people that wake up and see the truth,
- 5:32Speaker 4: the better we'll be and we won't have some sort
- 5:34Speaker 4: of well that gives me hope. Yeah, good, I.
- 5:36Speaker 1: Think it's I think it's been longer than eight years.
- 5:38Speaker 4: Yeah, just twelve.
- 5:39Speaker 1: Yeah, it hasn't been cool to be a long long time.
