Ex-RNC chair: McConnell shouldn't tell 'grown ass black man' Obama to keep his mouth shut
Washington Examiner ^ | May 12, 2020 | Madison Dibble

Posted on 05/13/2020 4:44:29 AM PDT by kevcol

On Monday, McConnell did an interview with Team Trump Online about recent remarks made by Obama on Trump's response to the coronavirus. McConnell said that he believed Obama should have "kept his mouth shut" rather than criticizing Trump. In response, former Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele trashed McConnell for condemning Obama.

"I'm sure Mitch is aware that a grown ass black man who happens to be a former president has agency to speak his mind on how his successor is managing this crisis, especially since his successor has yet to keep 'his mouth shut' about him," Steele tweeted.

“This is what you get when you pick a RINO to lead the national party because you wanted a token. He gets to say RINO BS forever and be referred to as if he is still someone very very important in the party, evidence of how wrong it’s gone. When he never really represented this base of the party in the first place.”

Exactly right.

Republicans reelected all their Senators and picked up six Senate seats. They retook the House, taking 63 seats in the House, the largest turnover in about 70 years.


We did that. Then the likes of GOPe like McCain worked with Obama to suppress conservatives.

An Affirmative Action hire and easily the worst RNC chairman ever. And that says a lot.

Steele was an AA hire.

Steele is wrong, again. Obama was constantly criticizing Bush, even into his second term, and Bush never responded.

Michael Steele, the worst RNC Chair ever.
Not to mention one of the slimiest, sleaziest, most corrupt poor excuses of a human being I ever came across.

A lot of the ones in the past 15 years have been no great shakes. One of the worst that comes to mind is Mary Louise Smith, another “Affirmative Action” hire by Jerry Ford in 1974. She was on the wrong side of premier social issues: a pro-abort ghoul for Planned Infanticide and an ERA nutter. They’d have been better off hiring a real feminine icon, Phyllis Schlafly.

In spite of him, not because of him. He was AWOL with our special election candidates (ask FReeper Chicago Lady, who ran for Rahm Emanuel’s open House seat and Steele couldn’t be bothered to reach out to her). It was the Tea Party movement that mobilized to take back the House and reaction to Emperor Zero’s Communist overreaches. But Steele ? Nope. He didn’t build that.

Hi. I’m Michael Steele. I’m not a conservative but a played one on T.V.

I hate that “grown ass man” phrase. Obama’s more like an ass-grown man, as in he came from his mom’s butt. Steel also, obviously, I so regret supporting him for RNC Chair (Blackwell was my first choice)

I heard Steele will be joining “RINO Losers for Biden and a Stalinist Supreme Court where Clarence Thomas is replaced by Stacy Abrams or Judge Hatchett.”

I wish I could find the photo taken just after Obama’s election of Republican “Golden Individual” Michael Steele tearfully embracing Barack and Michelle, who were smiling oh so knowingly; but it’s been scrubbed. If anyone has it, please post it.

Actually; he is a grown-ass HALF-black man. I would argue that hussein is more white than black given his upbringing (raised by white grandparents in Hawaii), speech articulation, and cultural experience. If Obama had grown up in "the hood", he would have been excoriated by his peers for "acting white".

Steele is just trying to ingratiate himself to the leftist msnbc audience and to the urbanites who may be watching by trying to display a little "blackness" in an effort to gain some street cred. Classic case of over-compensation.
