Byron Donalds' wife decries 'racist attacks' from the left: 'Cry harder, haters’Erika Donalds calls attention to left-wing Twitter users who attacked conservative couple's interracial marriage

Florida Republican Rep. Byron Donalds’ wife decried the "racist attacks" she and her husband endure from the left, telling the "haters" to "cry harder."

Erika Donalds, who is White, tweeted screenshots of online users attacking her over her skin color on Wednesday, pushing back on the racially-motivated online attacks over her marriage to a Black Republican lawmaker.

"Byron and I have been together for 23+ years, and the most racist attacks we experience are always from the left," she wrote.

"They can’t accept that a free thinking black man achieves success on his own merits, and they sure as heck can’t stand that he’s married to me!" Donalds continued. "Cry harder, haters."

The screenshots Donalds included shared attacks on her based on her race, with one user writing she looked up the Republican congressman and said she "should have known your wife was White."

"I’m not a racists (sic), but…" the user wrote in the post about the congressional wife’s race.

Whoops! We couldn't access this Tweet. "Surprise surprise, his wife is… nevermind," another user wrote. A third user tweeted, "No surprise he has a snowflake for a wife."

"I’m embarrassed and ashamed," a fourth user wrote. "Seen his wife? I’m not surprised."

Other users attacked Donalds as a "prop" — similar to the racially-charged attack against the Black Republican congressman by progressive Democrat Rep. Cori Bush of Missouri during the House speaker votes — and another asking if Erika was failed Georgia Republican Senate candidate Herschel Walker’s "wife."

...

Donalds was among a group of 20 hardline Republicans who refused to vote for McCarthy after he initially voted in his favor. He then switched to support Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, before his fellow Republicans nominated him for the role.

"Progressives" virtue-signal anti-racism, but they consider blacks and anyone who isn't like them to be inferiors.

The truth is, far left progressives are actually lily white. Nearly seven-in-ten Progressive Left (68%) are White adults, making this group less racially and ethnically diverse than the other Democratic-oriented groups.

Yet, these Dems hold extremist views on race than those held by more racially-diverse Dem groups.

They live in enclaves in cities, prefer going to museums over going to the range, and think religion is sophistry. Their policies and language all reek of a Superiority Complex.

I get Affinity bias. We all have it. I'd probably be rejected by an Anarcho-Syndicalist Commune and the feeling would be mutual.

But Erika Donalds' experience is worth remembering when they say WE are all haters. And while I haven't walked in her shoes, I can tell you, when behind closed doors, and if "progressives" think you're "one of them," their mask slips and (using affluent code language) you see how they REALLY feel about the races.

Scratch a progressive, find a Klansman in a suit and tie or lab coat.

Maybe you can post that on the current Sheila Jackson-Lee thread, about “white supremacy” code.

The same people who feared that overturning Roe v. Wade would lead to banning interracial marriage are now making racist attacks at an interracial marriage of a conservative Republican?

Have they no shame?

One positive note is that this can be used as an example in the future to show that the left never means what they say when they express outrage over an issue.

The point is, the prog left are race obsessed. They do not accept blacks as equal to whites. They believe blacks can’t succeed in life without help from white leftists.

The white left are instinctively hostile to a black who thinks he’s their equal and doesn’t need them.

Liberals are the biggest racists. They don’t want to know the person characters, but of the person are in a biracial marriage.

Progressives don’t need to have The Talk with their kids. Their kids learn it by example.

The far-left, America-hating commie RATS have been attacking a lot of mixed marriage couples these days. Time for those maggots to check their white privilege and control their white supremacy.

There are plenty of toxic white wives out there.
Some of us have been married to them.
