Biden’s Racial Politics

Joe Biden tossed the race card today.  All blacks have to vote for him because of their skin color or else be declared inauthentic — and presumably kicked off Joe’s plantation.

Not since his comment to the NAACP that Republicans “want to put y’all back in chains” has Joe Biden so ham-handedly played the race card.  At about 17:21 into the interview, Biden states that, “If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, you ain’t black.”

 

This display of arrogance and condescension to blacks may turn out to haunt Biden.  Fox News reports:

After the interview, Charlamagne tha God retweeted criticism of Biden. The Breakfast Club’s Twitter account also put up a poll asking followers if they agree with Biden’s comments — and out of nearly 40,000 votes, 89.6 percent of respondents disagreed with the remarks.

Biden’s remarks drew an articulate response from Fox News’ Harris Faulkner:

And likewise is Charles Payne’s response:

From the Trump war room
