Why Marco Rubio & the GOP love rap: ‘Who’s more gangster than the Republican party?’

Guest co-hosts Michael “Epic Politics Man” Shure, Michael Hastings (BuzzFeed and “Rolling Stone”), and Brown University’s Tricia Rose take a look at how Republicans aiming for election in 2016 are already trying to appeal to the people. For Marco Rubio, part of the plan is naming his favorite explicit rap songs. Rose says, “It was just a matter of time before Republicans figured out, ‘Oh, wow, there’s rap music that actually fits our political program. I mean, number one, the very conditions that two of these three MCs articulate — like lots of gun battles — are things that Republican policies created.”
