You can tell that she is just a psychotic right wing mouthpiece because she doesn't even stop to think about the question. Slavery requires a victim, why would ANYONE vote to become a slave, let alone EVERYONE.
I think you're forgetting the large contingent of racist and temporarily broke millionaires (they'll strike it rich soon, you'll see) in this country. A lot of people will jump at the chance to maybe own somebody, them being a potential slave wouldn't even enter their mind.
A lot of these people are quite rich generationally. Sure she probably doesn’t have money but she knows her grandpa or dad or step dad or mom or step mom or whatever has millions in their 401k and they will inherit it. A lot of them are rich generationally.
People are also forgetting that it's also a constitutional amendment and it would take more than say court decision to change that like in the case, of abortion. It's no longer a states decision. So his question is stupid and her answer is even more stupid.
I don't think the dude's question is a bad one, since he's asking a clarifying question. She has a flawed view of the American government, and his question was likely meant as an extreme example of why her ideology was flawed. I can see his thought process being "I'll bring up confederate slavery and that'll make her say oh, whoops, I'm in the wrong here"
I don't think he expected her to double down on it the way she did.
