When it comes to incorrigible racists, one can only pray that someday they discover the error of their ways.
Until then, since nearly all American racists have always voted Democrat, Republicans should encourage their wayward opponents to keep talking.
In a clip posted to the social media platform X, Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas, one of the most unrepentant racists to sit in Congress since the century-long era of segregation, bitterly complained about two new white Republican congressmen winning elections on the backs of “black and brown and Asian bodies.”
According to The Hill, Crockett’s comments came Thursday during a House Oversight Committee hearing on the Census Bureau.
During an exchange with bureau director Robert Santos, Crockett complained that Texas’s 2020 census-related demographics did not produce proper racial outcomes.
“We know that specifically, Texas added four million people,” Crockett said of the state’s 2020 census results. “Of those four million people, do you want to take a guess at how many were Anglos?”
She emphasized the word “guess” in a way that interrogators generally do when the answer to their question displeases them.
Meanwhile, Santos incorrectly guessed that “Anglos” — apparently Crockett’s blanket term for light-skinned people everywhere — made up more than half of Texas’s four million new people.
But Crockett countered that the vast majority of new Texans actually qualified as non-white: 95 percent of them, she said.
By the congresswoman’s racist logic, that should mean more dark-skinned colleagues for her. But it did not, so that must prove something sinister.
“So they took those black and brown and Asian bodies, and guess what? Do you think that we got a new black, brown or Asian seat? Somehow, the way that they do their Republican math in the state of Texas, that amounted to two new white seats,” she said.
Imagine a mind so repellent that it generates phrases such as “white seats.”
