California Rep. Maxine Waters calls Kay Ivey’s 'No way, Jose' ad 'plain racist ignorance.'
She added that she preferred to ignore the spot and keep “up the fight against racism and discrimination....We don’t have time to deal with that kind of stupidity and that kind of ignorance.”
“It is absolutely shameful,” Waters said, “that in this day and age that we have people who think like that, who speak like that, and who have access to the resources to purchase the kind of ad to just literally spill that kind of mess across our screens.”Note to readers: if you purchase something through one of our affiliate links we may earn a commission.
