MSNBC Host Claims Minority Republican Candidates Are Not ‘Voices Of Color’
MSNBC host Tiffany Cross attacked minority Republican candidates Saturday morning, claiming they were “not voices of color.”
“Despite the fact the GOP’s racist rhetoric has not slowed at all, they have begun hyping up, get this, their ‘diverse’ candidates,” Cross said while making air quotes with her hands. “According to numbers provided by the National Republican Congressional Committee, 80 Republican incumbents or candidates on the ballot next month are women, 33 and Latino, 28 are black, 13 are Asian and three are native Americans.”

“But faces of color do not always equate to voices of color,” Cross continued. “As our own NBC’s Scott Wong points out in his good reporting, the leadership will almost be entirely composed of white men. Really, this sounds more like the political equivalent of ‘some of my best friends are black.’”
Cross previously hosted Elie Mystal, who attacked Republican senatorial candidate Herschel Walker of Georgia as “a person who lacks independent thoughts,” on July 30.
“Shame on MSNBC and shame on him. I’m going to pray for both of them, because they need Jesus,” Walker respondedin a video posted to social media on Aug. 1.
“I will kick it up with you, Michael,” Cross said to former Republican National Committee chairman Michael Steele, “Because, you and I have had this conversation so many times on camera and off camera, you are my only Republican friend, I think, my friend. Here is a thing, Michael. Like I said, these are faces of color. Not voices of color. The last voice of color I remember being active in the Republican Party was you.”
The Republican National Committee did not immediately respond to a request for comment from the Daily Caller News Foundation.

A L L democrats are vile, racist, tyrannical SCUM!
Just ask ” What have the democrats done for you while they have the majority in the government?” How much has gas gone up while the democrats been in majority? Do you like the inflation on food or electric?
As always, facts don’t matter to Democrats. Last year after voter I.D. laws were passed in GA., primary elections had the highest voter turnout ever recorded, including among African Americans! Remember when you vote this November, that Joe Brandon (and Tiffany Cross and every single Democrat) called requiring voter I.D, “Jim Crow 2.0” and that all the Democrats and dozens of major “woke” corporations (like Disney and Coke and Delta airlines) screamed “voter suppression” and called for a Georgia boycott and actually got the World Series moved from Atlanta to Colorado.
The truth is that there is nothing more racist than calling voter I.D. racist, as it assumes that Blacks aren’t smart enough to get a driver’s license or a free state identification card at any DMV office. Something that is, ironically, required to rent or own a home, board a plane, open a bank account, get a credit card, get medical care, buy liquor or cigarettes, get food stamps, or even turn on the electricity or any other basic function of normal everyday life. The only thing the voter I.D. requirement really does is to prevent a non citizen or illegal immigrant from voting. I guess that’s why the Democrats hate it…….
