Aren't they worried that will encourage their viewers to vote for her?
It's a dog whistle to the racists who think the only thing worse than not being white is being mixed race. But they can't just say that out loud, so they play dumb and go "how can she be both?"
That is a childish accusation.
No, children are smarter than that. They'll look at her and tell this Newsmax idiot that she's black.
I cannot think of a more desperate attempt at being apart of a fascist crew lmoa fuck this turd
Newsmax actively ignores what its like to live in a race coded society as a minority because They're only talking to people who haven't lived as being in an oppressed minority. The ignorance is the point. They'll say whatever shit will play with their white audience that will make them respect a candidate less.
People who group races into "White" and "Other" are really having a tough time with this one.
....to people who never cared about blackface.
tbf she does have a black face. That's probably what they were trying to say.
Ah yes, Newsmax, the History Channel of "news" programming...
Much trust, such veracity, wow.
Do they have brainworms too?
