Black Republicans let some of the wildest things fly out of their mouths and this one is a instant furry-faced classic.

Rep. Byron Donalds from the state of, wait for it…Florida was recently put on blast for waxing poetic about the days of Jim Crow, the time when Black folks were considered less than and were barred from the life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness that is “promised” to “all” Americans. According to a POLITICO report, Donalds was speaking at a Republican Black outreach event in Philadelphia when he proudly proclaimed that, “During Jim Crow the Black family was together”. He continued, “During Jim Crow, more Black people were — not just conservative, because Black people always have always been conservative-minded — but more Black people voted conservatively.”

LBJ’s Great Society was destructive to Black families in America.

Joe Biden’s ’94 Crime Bill & the War on Drugs were also destructive to Black families.

We need economic policy to help ALL AMERICANS thrive & only 1 candidate in ’24 has that policy prescription: President Trump. pic.twitter.com/8i1hqudQ0Q

As you might imagine, Democrats like House leader Hakeem Jeffries didn’t just respond via quotes to the media. He took on moment on the House floor to address Donalds’ “yessuh, boss” a** comments.

Rep. Byron Donalds made the ignorant observation that Black people were better off under Jim Crow.

Much like his MAGA führer, Donalds tried to gaslight his detractors by claiming that he’s being lied on and misrepresented. In an effort clean up aisle 1619, Donalds appeared on CNN with Abby D. Phillip to “clarify” his position about how Jim Crow helped promote Black families…

I pressed potential Trump VP contender Rep. @ByronDonalds
about what exactly he meant at a recent campaign event for Black voters when he said ‘the Black family was together’ during Jim Crow.
Here’s part 1 of my conversation with him. pic.twitter.com/1083X0wFkq

These type of negroes have drunk so much MAGA Kool-Aid that it’s a shock that they haven’t had a foot amputated.
