Joy Reid: DEI Is ‘a Good Thing,’ But It’s Racist to Say Harris is a DEI Pick
Breitbart ^ | 07/24/2024 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 07/24/2024 8:09:09 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Tuesday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “The ReidOut,” host Joy Reid said that “DEI is actually a good thing,” but it’s racist to argue that 2024 Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris is a DEI hire.

After playing video of some Republican criticisms of Harris and New York Attorney General Letitia James (D), which included statements that Harris is a DEI hire, Reid said, “I wonder what these two women have in common. I can’t put my finger on it, but I’m sure I’ll figure it out.”

Later in the segment, James stated Republicans are “running very scared, and they have nothing else other than racism and sexism. And so, when you have nothing else, unfortunately, you just appeal to the racists among us, the white nationalists among us. That’s all. The reality is is that Kamala Harris — Vice President Harris, is qualified and oftentimes, she’s underestimated, but she’s an overachiever. And that’s why I have wholeheartedly endorsed her. And it’s unfortunate that individuals are just amplifying racism and sexism, and it’s totally inappropriate, and I will not dignify it with a response.”

Why does Joy Reid think she was hired? Same thing.

It is racist to discriminate against anyone based on race so DEI itself is racist.

A lot of work left to do on that front I’m afraid.

You’re a DEI hire yourself, Joyless.

Harris was picked by Biden’s handlers entirely on her superficial characteristics of skin color and sex.

That makes the Democrat Party the racists.

"What a pile of garbage Reid is."

Let's not insult a pile of rotting, maggot-infested garbage by equating it with Joy Reid. Garbage may have feelings.

Joy’s SAT scores are probably lower than her i.q.

There are plenty of other descriptions that could used besides ‘dei’ in reference to salad lady.

White people say it’s “wacist” to say she’s NOT a DEI pick.

So, Kamala is VP because of her tremendous acumen, experience, discernment, articulation, because she's SOOOOO articulate and well spoken, etc. ??

SERIOUSLY??

Yes, and unlike garbage... which can be used for a good thing... ie compost and growing plants.... Reid is good for absolutely nothing. A useless pile of leftism that... much like her master, Satan... can’t get next to the truth. The truth is like garlic and crosses to these political vampires. And that goes for the entire cabal of Marxists that are destroying us from within.

DEI causes just random people to DIE. Not because of malice aforethought, but simply through incompetence at doing the essential elements of the assigned duties.

“I wonder what these two women have in common.”


Well, they’ve both openly expressed their goal to put Trump in jail for daring to win the Presidency in 2016 and attempting to win in 2024. Does that help you, Joy?

James won her position in an election. Harris did win elections in California. But Biden promised that his VP pick would be a black woman and he picked Harris because she fit the requirement of his promise. DEI in action. She did not run for V.P. , she ran as part of a ticket.

The problem with her is not that she is black, but that she is RED.
