Trevor Noah's Critique of Black Republicans

Trevor Noah mocks the Republican National Convention's inclusion of Black speakers, suggesting they are a tiny minority being used as props. Noah critiques the "mental plantation" rhetoric used by speakers like Vernon Jones, arguing that the GOP is actually the party demanding specific ways of thinking. The hosts criticize Noah, a South African, for speaking on behalf of ADOS (American Descendants of Slavery) issues.
