She famously called Trump a 'white supremacist' in 2017
Ex-ESPN host Jemele Hill declared Tuesday that only White people are to blame if President Trump defeats Democratic nominee Joe Biden.
If Trump wins re-election, its on white people. No one else, Hill, an outspoken advocate for African Americans, wrote.
The tweet came as Tucker Carlson condemned the mainstream media for painting Trump as a racist who would struggle to attract non-White voters, after the president delivered a strong showing in the largely Hispanic Miami-Dade County in Florida.
Hill, now a writer for The Atlantic and a podcast host, famously called President Trump a white supremacist on Twitter in 2017. She was an ESPN host at the time.
ESPN initially declined to punish Hill but then sidelined her for two weeks in October 2017 after she violated the companys social media guidelines again.
Not long after returning from her suspension, ESPN reassigned Hill from its flagship "SportsCenter" to a role at The Undefeated, the companys site that covers the intersections of sports and race. She eventually left ESPN and joined The Atlantic, where she covers race, sports, politics and culture.
She also now co-hosts Stick to Sports on Vice alongside fellow ex-ESPN personality Cari Champion.Hill's anti-Trump comments even caught the attention of the White House and then-press secretary Sarah Sanders, who said she considered the rhetoric a fireable offense. Trump also got involved, mocking Hill and ESPNs lackluster ratings. The situation made Hill a hero among liberals and she has continued to be outspoken on social media.
Last year, Hill deleted a tweet that jokingly referenced the assassination of the president during his State of the Union address. She now has more than 1.2 million Twitter followers and has appeared on shows ranging from MSNBC to Bravo's "Below Deck" since

And damn proud of it too, you racist bitch
I will be happy to take credit for the most pro-American President since Eisenhower.
THANK YOU!!!
Virginia is up by biden 8,000 votes with some rural trump areas under reported. anyone looking at that?
Stands to reason, since white people are the MAJORITY.
There’s gonna be a long list of dumb comments from
all the sore losers.
So many dumb Dems out there.
Fun times.
I will be happy to wear that badge of honor. So will my black Trump supporting friends.
She’s in for quite a shock when she sees how much of the Hispanic vote Trump got. I still haven’t seen how much of the black vote he got, but it’s likely to be far higher than any GOP candidate has gotten in decades. Hill and other liberals are living in the past.
You’re welcome you racist intolerant bigoted whore.
During Trumps 2nd term, I hope he defends every group like PBS, NPR, etc”.
well, gosh.. we’re trying!
And if Biden wins; it’s on the rest of you.
(And a LOT of White People)
I hope you meant defUnds...
That’s racist.
If that’s true Jemele, than I’m glad to be identified as a white person.
I voted for PDJT. Stood in line for an hour yesterday to do it. (It was a nice day). 3rd try at voting.
I’ve never seen lines at polling places where I live like that.
OK, I’ll proudly accept that.
Wife and I voted at noon - ZERO line!
Thanks all you early folks who wasted HOURS of your lives. What were you THINKING? That being ‘early’ would somehow make your vote worth more?
I’m PROUD that Indiana was the first state listed; going for TRUMP; with only 1% being reported!!
We are so Republican in my area that the Dems did not bother to try to field ANY candidates for local offices!
Took us 1 hr and 5 min. on Election Day.
