Twitter: Dem Sen. Donnelly Accused of Racism After Debate Comments
Twitter ^

Posted on 10/31/2018 4:26:34 AM PDT by TigerClaws

Some odd phrasing from @SenDonnelly attempting to highlight the diversity of his staff:

"Our state director is Indian American, but he does an amazing job

Followed up with: “Our director of all constituent services, she’s African American. But she does an even more incredible job than you could ever imagine.”

It's more than 'racist" enough to get any conservative
politician, CEO, or leader removed from office or ruined
financially by the left.

Regular Dem says it, racist.
Republican says it, white supremacist, fascist, homophobic, misogynistic, fascist...
Hillary says it, oh, how witty she is.

The left is condescending to everybody that isn’t in their economic group. Most of them couldn’t go into a construction sight, or factory and actually have a conversation with them.

Wow, watching the video brings another slant to this. Joe mentions about his Director of All Constituent Services that she is "African American" and his body language seems to equate that to handicapped. Like "Joe is our chief butt kicker, but he is a one legged man and does a fantastic job".

And said with that s***-eatin’ Smart-ass grin of his “You can’t walk into a 7-11 or Dunkin Donuts without seeing at least one Indian-American”

All right, Braun, take that sound bite, make a commercial, and run it 24/7 through election day.

Donnelly has given the election to you on a silver platter.

Are you smart enough to seize the opportunity?

Would think his vote against the tax cut should have sunk him long ago.

Thanks for the helpful comment. I obviously want this guy to lose like anyone else who’s paying attention, but really if it were one of ours to use the wrong conjunction in this way we’d be complaining about people expecting him to walk on eggshells for them, and we’d be right.

Using the word, “but” is quite telling. :)

...she’s African American. But she does ...

Missing sentence is "We expected her to be mouthy and kind of lazy".

It is the Democratic party that has the race problem. Always has.

He managed to simultaneously pander and disparage.

Well played, sir!
