NBA Hall of Famer Charles Barkley slammed both Republican and Democrat politicans for purposely using their position to keep Americans divided in order to “keep their grasp on money and power.”

He then suggested that the American people are “so stupid” to follow leaders on either side of the aisle because he “truly” believes their end goal is to “divide and conquer.”

While covering the NCAA tournament on CBS over the weekend, Mr. Barkley stated as follows:

“I think most White people and Black people are great people. I really believe that in my heart. But I think our system is set up where our politicians, whether they’re Republicans or Democrats, are designed to make us not like each other so they can keep their grasp of money and power. They divide and conquer.”

“I truly believe in my heart most White people and Black people are awesome people, but we’re so stupid following our politicians, whether they’re Republicans or Democrats, and their only job is, ‘Hey, let’s make these people not like each other. We don’t live in their neighborhoods, we all got money, let’s make the Whites and Blacks not like each other, let’s make rich people and poor people not like each other, let’s scramble the middle class.’ I truly believe that in my heart.”
