Kentucky Governor-Elect Matt Bevin has four adopted children from Ethiopia. If you’re a conservative Republican, leave it to some to turn that into hate, as demonstrated here by Lexington Herald-Leader cartoonist Joel Pett.

Just wow.
This cartoon from the @HeraldLeader on @MattBevin's children is despicable. Would they have done this to a Dem Gov? https://t.co/EFiEzHkTPu

That question answers itself.
Bevin called out the paper and its cartoonist:
Shame on the Lexington @HeraldLeader for publishing a deplorable, overtly racist attack on my children. (1/2)

The tone of racial intolerance being struck by the @HeraldLeader has no place in Kentucky and won't be tolerated by our administration (2/2)
