According to MSNBC's Joy Reid and Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison (D), if you're someone who wants to see the economy reopen and get back to work, you must be some sort of Confederate racist.
"Black people are being left in a situation where they're more vulnerable by default: less health care, jobs that are hourly, jobs where you're closer to people, stuck working near to each other," Reid said. "When you hear Donald Trump talking in this sort of faux-Confederate language about these lockdown orders – which are meant to save lives – and you see people with these instaprotests, paid for by activists for the super-rich, egging on this kind of activity that could get violent, what does that say to you?"
Ellison said Trump is willing to put his supporters' lives on the line "so that he can have advantages like re-election and things like that."
"He's literally willing to sacrifice the lives of Americans for personal gain and that's deeply disturbing to me. It's not new," Ellison explained. "How many people who fell on the Confederate side owned massive plantations? Not that many. They bought themselves out of having to fight for their slavocracy, that poor whites died for them and so, you know, it's not a new story, right? It's disturbing. It's sad. And I pray for those people because, even though I disagree absolutely with these protests, I think they're completely and entirely inappropriate, I know that they and their loved ones will pay an awful price."

That was a lot of “racist confederates” protesting in Michigan the other day.
The commie talking heads are scared. They should be!
And here I thought the word “Liberate” was mostly a leftist construct these days.
Thank God for Sunday news shows. It stocks up Tucker and Rush with a weeks worth of material.
Lockdown Protestors Are Racist Confederates”
Instead of the doomsday clock we need a civil war clock. I mean an actual get your ammo civil war.
MSNBC= Mentally Sub Normal Bullshitting Communists
They never point out that almost all the laid off workers are from the private sector.
What imaginations these miscreants have.
You mean like George Soros and the SJW/Antifa crowd?
More people saw this on Free Republic than on pmsnbc.
The super rich include the elite media types who are continuing to spew their lies on TV. The people at the protests are middle class people whose livelihood has been shut down by government action. Why do dem voters believe the lies of the propaganda media?
Any commentator on TV should have a little note in the corner of the screen indicating their category: no loss of income, Significant loss of income or total loss of income.
But I liked “ deplorables” so much more..
Maybe we have now become the “nonessentials”
I wish the Freepers would stop posting Joy Reid stories. She is clearly a lunatic. More people read these posts than watch her worthless show.
But - according to Joy, Black people don’t need to get back to work?
Well, if this fantasy of theirs turns out to be true, the upcoming lynchings would be aimed 100% at lily-white MSM news readers. :)
Whoa, whoa, whoa. We have our own version of George Soros? Where do I sign up?
Trump = Hitler, and all the other murderous dictators throughout history combined
Trump supporters = KKK, and all other hateful and murderous people throughout history combined
- The MSM narrative
Well they must have been from southern Michigan plantation country.
