MSNBC’s Joy Reid Dials Up Racial Attacks on Herschel Walker, Republicans
With just 11 days to go before the midterm election, a good gauge of just how nervous the Democrats are is the frequency with which the pull out the trusty old race card.
And in the case of MSNBCās Joy Reid, how Democrats view black Republicans is on full display and itās not pretty.
Reid was discussing the Georgia Senate race, where, in recent days, Republican Herschel Walker has pulled ahead of incumbent Sen. Raphael Warnock. So Reid began the preemptive tear down of Walker, just in case he wins and becomes the nationās second black Republican Senator.
If you can follow along, Reidās logic goes something like this: Republicans donāt care about black people because Senator Lindsey Graham blocked black Republican Senator Tim Scottās police reform bill.
Graham, as Senate Judiciary Chairman, refused to bring Scottās police reform bill up in his committee, citing the fact that it would give Democrats the chance to amend and change it.Ā
Mr. Walker no matter what your own community says about you, keep going, get louder. Joy Reid and Alex Wagner are horrible and THEY are the ones controlled and compliant to the White Dem party. Who wants to be a part of their black community? It’s shocking.

If You Campaign For Herschel Walker, Youāre A Racistā¦ Or Something
For the crime of being politically astute, Reid says of Graham: āAnd now, Lindsey Graham, who when he had the opportunity to elevate an actual black United States Senator and allow him to make a contribution, he undercut his fellow South Carolina senator and destroyed the bill that he was building. If he respects black men, then why didnāt he let Tim Scott have that victory and have a legacy of his own? He undercut it.ā

Iām not sure if Joy Reid is aware of this, but besides Grahamās process defense, Republicans in general donāt really support police reform.
Apparently because of this action by Graham, Reid made the Olympic-worthy jump to this conclusion:
āItās showing you they donāt want a thinking black senator. Heās too much for them. They were like, āYou can be here and wave quietly and silently wave, Tim Scott, but the minute you try to legislate, Lindsey Graham ā your fellow South Carolina senator ā is going to cut the legs out from under you.ā What they want is Herschel, whoās gonna sit there quietly and nod, and nod, and nod while heās being pointed to as if he is a prop.ā
If youāre confused, it only proves that you are a sane person.
Iām a Fox News host but I gotta admit I am STOKED to watch Election Night Coverage on MSNBC because itās gonna be HILARIOUS. Vegas has the over under on Joy Reid saying āWhite Supremacyā at 85 and āFascismā at 76.

Joyās Back-Up
On the panel with Reid was former Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele, who is also black.
Steele nodded in agreement and said:
āTo that point, here is the question for Lindsey and Cotton and others. So are you, you know, going to be holding Senator Walkerās hand every day walking through the Senate halls? Are you going to be managing his schedule and his calendar? What kind of Senator do you think heās actually going to be? What kind of staff is he going to be able to put together?ā
Reid cut in with a bit of snark and said, āWhoever they give him!ā
Did you catch that? While accusing Republicans of wanting a āprop,ā Reid and Steele insinuate that Walker would be incapable of creating calendars and hiring a staff.Ā
And depending on how well Republicans do on election night, Joy Reid may have a whole lot more āpropsā to talk about. According to the Washington Post, there are 28 black Republicans on the ballot in November.Ā
I am not a prop.
I am, in fact, a thinking black Senator.@JoyAnnReid you do not speak for me or any other black conservative and are directly contributing to the divisive rhetoric you and @TheDemocrats claim to be against.https://t.co/ruveOtsagr
