You’d think by NOW Lefties would have figured out playing the race card in this country is a waste of time because time and time again, Americans have proven they will vote for people of all colors as long as they agree with their ideas. Sure, there will always be fringe groups that the media loves to focus on since they make for the best clicks and taps, but at the end of the day, most people aren’t worried about the color (or the sex) of their candidate.
Which made this WaPo piece by Vanessa Williams seem pretty silly. We get it, she wants to keep pushing the idea that Stacey Abrams lost in Georgia because of her sex or color but it’s just not true. And thankfully, young political activist CJ Pearson put a stop to the BS with one simple tweet:
We’re free. That’s “what’s up”. pic.twitter.com/boHoF9OJMT

Boom.
That’s what’s up.
I may not agree with all your politics @thecjpearson, but mad respect for your spirit of blazing your own trail, especially at such a young age.

The inference is that black men are expected to (do their job) vote straight (D) at any election. Isn’t THAT racism?

You’d think.
God forbid you should think for yourself

We keep trying to tell them. *shrug*
What's up with the left assuming because you are black you OF COURSE will vote Democrat? What a bunch of racist crap. Black Americans, like ALL Americans are individuals who can think for themselves and not a homogeneous mindless group.

Democrats care more about the black vote than they do about black Americans.
A man or a woman don’t vote by skin color, they vote for the person with the best character and whose ideas run alongside with their own. They hopefully don’t just follow along with the crowd and think for themselves! That is why there are many independent voters today!
