In a recent radio broadcast, former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani blamed on Barack Obama, the nation’s first Black president, for what he perceives as a worsening of race relations in the United States. Giuliani accused Democrats of being “the party of slavery” and asserted that electing Obama egressed the nation’s race relations by several decades.
During the broadcast, Giuliani criticized Democratic leaders as “miserable anti-American” figures and claimed that the deterioration in race relations started with Obama’s presidency.
“These miserable anti-American leaders of the party of slavery have taken us back 40 or 50 years on race relations with Obama,” he claimed. “It began with Obama.”
He also pointed to a historical pattern of Republicans being labeled as racist, citing examples such as John McCain and George W. Bush, and noted that Donald Trump faced similar accusations.

“Before that, I mean, they — every — Republicans are racist. I mean, they love John McCain until he became the candidate of the Republicans, then he was crazy, insane; something happened to him during the war; he’s a racist. Bush was called a racist all the time,” he said.
“Trump gets into I think a psychological illness they have about Trump,” he said. “Trump derangement syndrome is real — so obsessive.”
Giuliani argued that the issue of race relations has been brewing for a long time, attributing it to what he called a “Marxist planned and executed” agenda. Giuliani connected the concept of open borders to influential figures like Karl Marx and Saul Alinsky, alleging that these ideas had been passed down to Obama and Hillary Clinton.
