Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear was hesitant to speak out on national political issues or criticize former President Donald Trump during his first term in office, but has already signaled that may change over the next four years.
In an interview Tuesday with the Associated Press, Beshear was asked about Trump’s repeated statement that an influx of immigrants is “poisoning the blood of our country.” The governor was uncharacteristically blunt, calling such rhetoric “dangerous” and dehumanizing.
