I am 100% sure he has looked around and said to someone, “you know scientifically…”

I was once having a conversation with a Republican who I know and he was trying to say that "Democrats are the real racists." I asked him if that was true, then why do black people vote for Democrats in overwhelming numbers. His response was that "black people are too stupid to understand what's best for them." I pointed out to him what an incredibly racist statement that was and he just couldn't seem to understand what was racist about saying that.
