“The truth that he’s keen to make a promise on the outset, that it will have to be a Black girl, I gotta say that’s offensive,” the Donald Trump apologist mentioned on his podcast, “Verdict with Ted Cruz.”
Cruz described Biden’s promise following the retirement of Justice Stephen Breyer as “in fact an insult to Black girls,” suggesting the president was once “no longer even pretending” to mention his nominee will be the maximum certified. “He’s announcing, ‘In the event you’re a white man, tricky success. In the event you’re a white girl, tricky success. You don’t qualify,’” Cruz added.
Cruz’s feedback went viral on Twitter for the improper causes.
“The one factor insulting to this Black girl is Ted Cruz considering he speaks for us,” Rep. Marilyn Strickland (D-Wash.) spoke back.
Rep. Don Beyer (D-Va.) accused Senate Republicans of “disgracing themselves” with the assaults at the “vital milestone in American historical past.”
