Yes, Bobo

Bobo Brooks actually tries to say Reagan didn't visit Philadelphia, Mississippi to cater to "teh white people".

And his defense amounts to this:

It’s callous, at least, to use the phrase “states’ rights” in any context in Philadelphia. Reagan could have done something wonderful if he’d mentioned civil rights at the fair. He didn’t. And it’s obviously true that race played a role in the G.O.P.’s ascent.

But otherwise, it's totally untrue that the Philadelphia appearance had an implied message.

Uh-huh.

Because there's no reason for Bobo to think Reagan had a bigoted bone in his body:

Next up, Bobo explains the slurs against Reagan for Bitburg and Iran-Contra.
