What is a “a wave of scrutiny: and why would anyone be subjected to it by the Democrat Party?

Are we talking organized intimidation? That’s sure what it sounds like.

Oh no ... HE TALKED TO A REPUBLICAN!

The Left is into a hitherto-unknown depth of intolerance.

Ooooooooh, “slammed”. I’m scared. :-)

Let’s see if Killer Mike demonstrates some spine. If he does, he’s A-OK. If not, he’s just a 5-letter word for “cat” beginning with “p”.

Who says the media isn’t divisive? They are the reason we cannot discuss our differences

What differences? Do you think we can work this out?

One side is Capitalist.

The other is socialist/marxist/communist.

You think we can just sit down and discuss over supper? You serious?

“Killer Mike is facing a wave of scrutiny from Democrats over his decision to meet this week with Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, a Republican.”

“C’mon, man, you ain’t black if you’re meeting with some cracker Republican governor.”

If there’s one thing Democrats hate, it’s black people thinking for themselves. Expect the hate for Killer Mike to begin (and I’ve heard his music, back in the day - not bad).

Even s lot of whites find it best to keep quiet and just express politics in the voting booth. Because too many intolerant liberals have positions of authority in too many companies.

“wave of scrutiny” is an odd phrase. It sounds like a natural phenomenon.

Will he get it? Probably not. He’ll probably apologize and say he’ll never let it happen again.

These people don’t believe Republicans have a right to even exist.

They aren’t really liberals. We have to stop using that word.

Even his blackness cant help him now. Black has been diluted since white women are falsely claiming blackness and now white privileged snowflake rioters are now the new afrikan black panther party. Even the visual is argued you must believe!
