Nick Cannon Calls Democrats the 'Party of the KKK,' Praises Trump’s Second Term

Media reports added historical context to his simplified party history claims.

Overview

  • On his Big Drive web show, Nick Cannon said Democrats are "the party of the KKK" and called Republicans the party that freed enslaved people.
  • He praised President Donald Trump’s second term as "cleaning house" and said Trump is doing what he promised.
  • He said he does not subscribe to either party and cited W. E. B. Du Bois’s critique of a single "evil" party with two names.
  • Guest Amber Rose said Democrats do not care about people of color and he said he agreed with her view.
  • Coverage from TMZ and Variety noted KKK ties to some Reconstruction-era Democrats, the GOP’s anti-slavery origins, the 13th Amendment’s role in ending slavery, and the mid‑20th‑century party realignment.
