"I've never had a problem with white people ever in my life, but, full disclosure, poor whites are my least favorites," discloses Dave Chappelle in a clip from his latest standup special, Equanimity.
While the show was filmed long before the Trump party's oligarchical tax plan came to fruition this week, the comic legend's recollection of interactions with Trump supporters rings prescient as ever.
"We've got a lot of trouble out of them. And I've never seen so many of them up close," joked Chappelle while continuing his riff on the "decent folk" who voted for Trump. "I looked them right in their coal-smeared faces. And to my surprise, you know what I didn't see? I didn't see one deplorable face in that group."
"I know that rich white people call poor white people 'trash'," continued Chappelle. "And the only reason I know that, is I made so much money last year, the rich whites told me they say it at a cocktail party...and I'm not with that s**t."
Chappelle wasn't done:
"I listened to them say naive, poor white people things - 'Donald Trump's gonna go to Washington, and he's gonna fight for us' - I'm standing there, thinking in my mind, 'you dumb motherf**ker...'"
Equanimity releases Dec. 31 on Netflix.
