Nobody escapes the racial prism through which Joy Reid sees virtually everything. Not even a gay, liberal Democrat like Pete Buttigieg.
With Buttigieg on her show today, Reid displayed a tweet in which he had said America needs a president shaped by "heartland" values, not by the politics of Washington.
Reid told him that she had received a lot of "not-positive" texts about the tweet, and that it sounds to many people "like a dog whistle for white voters."

You can pander to some of the people all of the time, but you can’t pander to all of the people all of the time.

Why would Joy hear dog whistles? I thought dog whistles were for dogs?

A, E, I, O, U and, sometimes Y, are all racist vowels and make racist words any time they are used.

Doesn’t Miss Reid know that, on the Left’s totem pole of victimhood, sex perverts are higher up than blacks? Sheesh, as an LSM ‘RAT lapdog, she should know better.

By objecting to the phrase, Joy is unwittingly acknowledging that there is a difference between Heartland America and Inner City America and No-Go Zone America.
Which of those people groups would she prefer he appeal to?

Dog whistle? Then Joy Reid heard it.

Yep. Being a women and black will not insulate her from the gay thought police perceiving a slam against one of their own.

Chicago has lots of black folks. Just ask Obama.

Joy Reid is such a typical liberal control freak... she even wants to control the words fellow liberals are ‘allowed’ to use.
Split the county - she can live in PUS (Progressive United States) and she and her fellow thugs can make laws against the words they don’t like... like every other commie hellhole in the world.

Well, she is an expert on race-baiting, so that’s kind of in the same ballpark.
I want her to debate Alveda King.
