He challenges April Ryan's comments on Melania not being "culturally American," arguing that such statements would be deemed xenophobic if directed at someone on the left. Shapiro points out the double standards in media narratives, especially regarding minority groups and cultural identity.

    If somebody were to say that on the right about anybody on the left with an accent, then it'll be, oh, my God, racism, xenophobia, terrible.
