THE CANADIAN PRIME MINISTER JUSTIN TRUDEAU GOT CAUGHT WEARING BLACK FACE AND A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE PRETENDING TO BE VERY, VERY SURPRISED. BUT ARE YOU REALLY SURPRISED IN FACT YOU PROBABLY COULD HAVE GUESSED IT, ACTUALLY. A LITTLE LIKE FINDING OUT SUPER SENSITIVE BROTHER-IN-LAW THE ONE WHO TELLS YOU A FEMINIST THE ONE ALWAYS SCOLDING YOU FOR YOUR SEXISM IS, IN FACT, HITTING ON THE BABYSITTER. OF COURSE IS HE HITTING ON THE BABYSITTER. THE VIRTUE IS ALWAYS A COVER FOR THE SIN. THAT'S THE KEY TO UNDERSTANDING THE MODERN LEFT. WHATEVER THEY ARE ACCUSERSING YOU OF DOING, THEY ARE DOING THEMSELVES BUT MORE ENTHUSIASTICALLY. AND THAT'S DEFINITELY THE STORY OF JUSTIN TRUDEAU. LIKE YOUR BROTHER-IN-LAW WITH THE PONYTAIL TRUDEAU BRAGS ABOUT BEING A FEMINIST. USE THE WRONG WORD IN HIS PRESENCE AND HE WILL LAUNCH INTO A SELF-RIGHTEOUS LECTURE. HE MAY BE THE MOST SANCTIMONIOUS HEAD OF STATE ON PLANET EARTH SO, OF COURSE HE WAS LEADING A SECRET LIFE AS A RACIST. THAT'S WHY HE IS SO SANCTIMONIOUS SO YOU WON'T NOTICE. TURNS OUT THERE ARE NOW AT LEAST THREE SEPARATE INSTANCES OF JUSTICE TRUDEAU WEARING BLACK FACE AND AS HE CONCEDED TODAY, THERE COULD ABSOLUTELY BE MORE. >> YOU LEFT US WITH THE IMPRESSION THERE WAS ONLY ONE OTHER INCIDENT AND SINCE THEN GLOBAL NEWS HAS RELEASED A VIDEO WHICH SEEMS TO SHOW THERE WAS AT LEAST A THIRD INCIDENT. SO EXACTLY HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU DARKENED YOUR SKIN IN MAKEUP IN AN ACT THAT YOU YOURSELF DESCRIBED AS RACIST? >> I SHARED THE MOMENTS THAT I RECOLLECTED BUT I RECOGNIZE THAT IT IS SOMETHING ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE TO DO. AND I APPRECIATE CALLING IT MAKEUP BUT IT WAS BLACK FACE. >> Tucker: UNACCEPTABLE. BUT HE DID IT AT LEAST THREE TIMES. MAYBE MORE. HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU WORN BLACK FACE? PROBABLY RIGHT AROUND ZERO. TRY NOT TO BE JUDGEY HERE OR ANYTHING. BUT EVEN ADJUSTING FOR YOUTHFUL INDISCRETION, THREE TIMES ON CAMERA. THAT'S A LOT. IT'S AN AWFUL LOT, ACTUALLY. WHAT'S GOING ON WITH JUSTIN TRUDEAU? IT TURNS OUT AND HE EXPLAINED THIS TODAY THAT JUSTIN TRUDEAU SUFFERS FROM AN ESPECIALLY VIR LENT CASE OF SOMETHING CALLED PRIVILEGE. >> I HAVE ALWAYS ACKNOWLEDGE WOULD THAT I COME FROM A PLACE OF PRIVILEGE, BUT I NOW NEED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT COMES WITH A MASSIVE BLIND SPOT. >> Tucker: UM-HUH. GOT THAT? WHITE PRIVILEGE IS THE PROBLEM HERE THAT'S TRUDEAU'S EXPLANATION. IF YOU ARE NOT LISTENING CAREFULLY, IT MIGHT SOUND LIKE JUSTIN TRUDEAU JUST TOOK RESPONSIBILITY FOR WHAT HE DID. OH, BUT NO. JUST THE OPPOSITE. HE TRANSFERRED IT. WHEN TRUDEAU BLAMES PRIVILEGE, IS HE MOVING RESPONSIBILITY FOR WHAT HE DID FROM HIMSELF TO THE REST OF US. IN OTHER WORDS, I DID SOMETHING AWFUL BECAUSE SOCIETY ITSELF IS ROTTEN, THEREFORE, AND THIS IS THE KEY, THEREFORE I NEED TO KEEP TELLING YOU HOW TO LIVE YOUR LIFE. IT'S NOT A CONFESSION. IT'S A JUSTIFICATION. AND THE ONLY PEOPLE DUMB ENOUGH TO BUY IT, ARE THE NEWS MEDIA. OF COURSE. THE DUMBEST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD. OVER AT CNN, FOR EXAMPLE, DON LEMON WAS DEEPLY IMPRESSED. >> WOW, A LEADER APOLOGIZING, IT SEEMS ODD, DOESN'T IT? I MEAN, BECAUSE WE HAVE ONE WHO DOESN'T BUT HE SAYS, YOU KNOW, HE SAID HE DIDN'T THINK IT WAS RACIST AT THE TIME. NOW HE KNOWS BETTER. WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THAT? >> I DO HAVE TO SAY THIS BEFORE WE GO, THINK ABOUT IT HOWEVER YOU WANT TO THINK ABOUT IT, WHEN SOMEBODY APOLOGIZES, WOW! WE DON'T -- WE DON'T OFTEN SEE THAT HERE. ESPECIALLY A WORLD LEADER WHO IS SAYING I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER AND I'M SORRY. YOU CAN FEEL ABOUT IT HOWEVER YOU WANT. THAT TO ME THAT DOES MEAN A LOT. I HAVE GOT TO GO. THANK YOU. >> Tucker: IT MEANS A LOT TO DON LEMON IT. REALLY DOES. WHAT A DIFFERENCE A YEAR MAKES. REMEMBER ALL THE WAY BACK TO WHEN MEGYN KELLY FOUND HERSELF UNDER ATTACK IN PRETTY MUCH THE SAME WAY, THE DIFFERENCE WAS THAT MEGYN KELLY NEVER WORE BLACK FACE. SHE WOULDN'T DO THAT SHE IS NOT JUSTIN TRUDEAU. SHE JUST MADE THE MISTAKES OF NOT SEEMING QUITE OFFENDED ENOUGH IN A TV SEGMENT BY CERTAIN HALLOWEEN COSTUMES.
