Sacha Baron Cohen has Georgia lawmaker bare bottom, use racial slur

A Georgia lawmaker can be seen using racial slurs and dropping his pants in the latest episode of Sasha Baron Cohen’s Showtime series “Who Is America?”

In Sunday night’s broadcast, Republican State Rep. Jason Spencer of Woodbine repeatedly says “nigger” and later exposes his bottom after being told it helps scare away Muslim terrorists.

Spencer lost in the May primary but his term doesn’t end until his replacement takes over after the November election. But The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported that Georgia House Speaker David Ralston has called for Spencer to step down.

“Representative Spencer has disgraced himself and should resign immediately,” Ralson said. “Georgia is better than this.”

The report said that Spencer had earlier threatened legal action to prevent the network from airing footage of him.

In a statement Monday, Spencer apologized for the “ridiculously ugly episode” but refused to step down from office.

In the episode, the British-Jewish comedian Cohen plays an Israeli military expert, Erran Morad, and tells Spencer to take part in what he was told was a counterterrorism video.

Warning: Clip includes strong language and graphic content

Spencer is told to yell racial epithets and shimmy his exposed rear-end toward purported Muslim attackers screaming “USA” and “America.” Cohen tells Spencer the performance would ward off terrorists, as their worst fear is being seen as homosexuals.

Cohen also tells Spencer he has developed a technique to identify terrorists disguised as women in burqa face coverings.

He then has Spencer imitate a Chinese tourist to distract a burqa wearer — complete with a bad accent, racial stereotypes and actual Japanese terms such as “konichiwa” and “sushi” — while sticking a selfie stick with a camera under her garb.

Spencer said he thought the techniques would prevent “what I believed was an inevitable attack.”

Other Georgia leaders also criticized Spencer.

“There is no excuse for this type of behavior, ever,” Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal said in a tweet, “and I am saddened and disgusted by it.”

The Islamic Council on American-Islamic Relations also called for Spencer’s resignation.

“The ignorance and malice behind Islamophobia has led Mr. Spencer to not only pursue bad policy, but engage in humiliating and hateful behavior unbecoming of anyone — especially a state legislator,” said Edward Ahmed Mitchell, director of the group’s Georgia chapter.

Spencer faced calls for his resignation last year after he warned a black former state legislator that she won’t be “met with torches but something a lot more definitive” if she continued to call for the removal of Confederate statues in southern Georgia.

In the new show “Who Is America?” Baron Cohen dons various prosthetics and accents in an attempt to embarrass those on the right and left.

He has so far duped a few current and recent politicians as well as gun rights activists, into supporting a fictitious initiative to arm toddlers.

He’s also met with Sen. Bernie Sanders and former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin.
