Conservative actor Stacey Dash has announced she is running for U.S. Congress in California. In response, Trevor Noah slammed her and accused her of running only for fame.
As usual, Trevor Noah took a hard left stance against Dash. He slammed her for running as a Republican in Compton.
Per IJR.com:
Comedy Central's Trevor Noah clearly wasn't a fan of the decision and slammed her on “The Daily Show” for running as a Republican in Compton.
“That neighborhood is so black that they make Wakanda look like a Panera,” Noah said.
Noah then showed his audience several videos from her Fox News appearances where she said things like, “either you want to be segregated or you want to be integrated, and if you want to be integrated, then you don't need to have things like BET.” Noah also showed a clip of her saying, “there shouldn't be a Black History Month. We're Americans, period.”
Noah then claimed that Dash wasn't interested in winning her campaign for Congress and that it was simply “a publicity stunt to raise her profile for her next job.”
Here is the video of Trevor Noah calling out Dash on his show "The Daily Show."

Well, once Stacey Dash caught wind of the remarks of Noah, she took to Twitter to respond. She didn't hold anything back.
Stacey Dash returns fire:
@Trevornoah About your comments on my candidacy. I’m not running to gain fame. This type of controversial fame has not brought me any financial gain. In fact I’ve been blacklisted in H-wood. Hollywood seems to have the right to say who’s black & who’s not based on their politics.

As for those who don’t think I understand “living the life” or know “the struggle” that would qualify me to represent the people of the 44th district, let’s be clear: does growing up in 60s South Bronx to mixed race, drug addicted parents, being a single mom...

...or being publicly attacked and blacklisted fit your profile of someone who has “lived the life” and knows “the struggle?” Don’t profile me until you know me.
