Democrats accused Sen. Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of racism for remarks he made about black Americans voting at just as high a percentage as 'Americans' after their voting rights package failed to make it through the Senate. The Kentucky Republican was asked by a reporter what his message is to voters of color who are 'concerned' that they won't be able to vote in the midterm election. 'Well, the concern is misplaced because you if you look at the statistics, African-American voters are voting in just as high a percentage as Americans,' McConnell said in response.

Lie-berals have abused the term "racist" so much that it really doesn't have any meaning anymore. It's just a term that lie-berals and racist blacks use to shut up their opponents when they can't actually refute the merits of what their opponents said.
Which is sad because when there is really a case of actual racism, everybody just yawns.

"Angry Dems demand McConnel and other americans use the term "Other" when referring to all other Americans or else they are guilty of "Othering" African-Americans"
Illian Omar claims to have experienced this "othering" type of white racism her entire Life, first in somalia where her Grandfather was a High Govt official as were many other family members, until their Regime was overthrown by Somali Democrat Party people, who set out to slaughter all "Other" political and ethnic groups(though they are all black), and in the refugee camps of Ethiopia where her family fled, and the Native ethiopeans were just as mean, didn't let somalis become citizens, soooo she fled to the "Other" African Country of Kenya where she was still treated as an "Other" by yet another non-white majority. Still not befitting of her obvious human worth she next demanded refugee status in "Racist" america, settling at age 11 in "Racist" NYC, AOC's district, then onward to Racist Arlington Virginia, finally Lilly White Minnesota where Racists then provided for her every want and need, allowing her to become a citizen at 17yo, having only been in the country 6 years, even elected her to various offices, allowing her to bring family over, welcoming them, allowing her to marry several different people to get them citizenship as well...two at a time, one her own "other' brother.
Maybeeee...SHE is the exact WRONG person to be telling ANY "other" American what "Being American" is.

McConnell, you have to get to recognizing the Democrats are pure evil, and will do anything. They are not civil or gentle, and you are being walked over. It would be nice if you took off the gloves. The Democrats did that years ago.

I'm suggesting that if someone thinks Our Country is racist, they go live elsewhere, say Sudan, or North Korea...

Register, get an ID, go vote. Not that hard. Even for a racist or anyone else for that matter. Tired of the woke, puke nonsense.

"Racist", like so many other words, has been so overused it means nothing. It is the go to word when one has lost an argument but still feels entitled to the last word.
In simpler times it was "So's you mom" or "I know you are but what am I?"

Facts and statistics don't, Democrats do. If Democrats didn't have their constant fear mongering they'd have nothing. Omar peddles her own brand of racism and division better than any Park Avenue Advertising agency. If it moves it's racist hpmophobic, bigoted, and now wants to take your voting rights away. McConnell could have said the sky is blue and Omar would have cried racism.

Perhaps they should stop using the term "African-American" and just be Americans.

Don't even say the words, "african americans" any more, the accusation of racism automatically follows. Just say that everybody has equal voting rights, end of story.

Show us these people who want to but can't vote. Do you ever see any on the news? Some people could care less if they ever voted. Some people choose not to vote but how many really want to vote but aren't allowed?

The word 'racism' no longer means anything to anyone other than a liberal or a racist black person. Being called a 'white supremacist' is the current name calling favorite that will soon be overused to the point of becoming irrelevant. I wonder if those favored 'journalists' at the orange gals lying sessions, have to provide a photo I.D.? Why isn't that considered racist?

Who started the "black-American" that purposely points out the difference between black and white skin? It was done to divide Americans. We have had this difference shoved down our throats for years. It's always in the back of one's mind when talking about race. McConnell's statement has been altered to make it look like he is saying blacks are not citizens. He did not say they are not. Get rid of the "black" American, We are all American. I don't use or will use the black American stichk

If you are a legal citizen in America and don't vote it's no one's fault but your own. No one's vote is suppressed if you are too lazy to go vote don't blame others for it. "As any OTHER Americans" there I fixed McConnell's words. MAGA

Have the leftist, progressive, or socialist Democrats in the modern era ever brought forward any African-American or Black American voters who have really been denied their right to vote by the wimpy Republicans?

The idiots in congress should just shut up and sit down. He is right, though he might not have said it as smoothly as somebody would have liked. Not gonna slam Turtle on this one, but I will slam Omar and her ilk for jumping ugly without thinking about what he said. But then, she and the rest are democrats and that is what they do. They are genetically incapable of thinking.

Imagine the House and Senate slowly being filled with despicable, white hating Muslims. When there were enough of them in South Africa, the S.A. Europeans had to pack their bags, leave their property and emigrate. Where would Americans go?
