    It’s weird to me that there are members of the right wing that are black but maybe it shouldn’t be a surprise? Republicans in general consistently vote against their own best interests.

      Turns out pulling the ladder up behind you knows no racial or socioeconomic bounds.

      Well, some people get to a position in their lives where they’re selfish and have no problem fucking over people. When they decide to pick a party there’s only one for them. And yeah, you can be black and do that
