Piers Morgan Criticizes Republican Candidate for 'Open Bigotry' Following 'Dirty Muslim' Insult

Piers Morgan engaged in a heated exchange with Republican Texas state House hopeful Valentina Gomez after she released a campaign ad promising to "remove every dirty Muslim" from the state if elected. Gomez appeared on Piers Morgan Uncensored on Wednesday and reaffirmed her controversial statement.

Lets be clear on your show, Piers, I dont fear the groomers, pedophiles, corrupt politicians, or dirty Muslims, Gomez said during the interview. Wearing a red Make America Great Again hat associated with former President Donald Trump, she maintained her stance despite Morgans visible disapproval.

Towards the conclusion of the discussion, Morgan questioned Gomezs claim that his producers were begging her to appear on the program. We sent you a single email and you agreed immediately, he said. Morgan explained that he felt compelled to address her after her inflammatory video gained viral attention. I was shocked at how extreme and bigoted your comments were, he added. And it turns out, they were.

The conversation escalated with Gomez criticizing Morgan for refusing to use a slur during a previous interview with Tucker Carlson. Words like that mean nothing; youre just following political correctness and the establishment, she said. You obey instructions, and thats fine. But you couldnt even say the word, and thats the reality.

Morgan made it clear he would consider inviting Gomez back only if she wins the election in Texas 31st district, which includes parts of Austin and nearby cities. Heres my promise: if voters embrace your hateful rhetoric, you can return. Otherwise, this is the last time well see you, he stated. He added, I dont believe the people of the 31st district will support you, because your bigotry is undeniable.
