“If you sign up to be a black conservative, the chances are very high you will be attacked”
The Dems want to keep the blacks on their liberal plantations.
“It comes with the territory, and I’ve had it for 20 years, two decades, but my friends and my staff, they’re not used to the level of animus that comes in from the liberal left that suggests that I somehow am not helpful to the cause of liberal America and therefore, I am not helpful to black America.”
A sampling:
“Senator Uncle Tim Scott, Everyone in South Glen who happens to be a left-winger knows that Tim Scott is an Uncle Tom.”
“A white man in a black body, Tim Scott backs Jeff Sessions for Attorney General.”
“You are a disgrace to the black race.”
“How does a black man turn on his own?”
“He’s a house negro.”
Scott pointed out that of all hundred Senators, he has one of the only African American Chiefs of Staff. The only other also works for a Republican. His CoS was not immune from hateful attacks and was called a “high yellow”
Scott omitted letters that used the “n” word, as he felt it inappropriate content for the Senate floor.
So much racism by people complaining about racism.
