House Republican Rips ‘DEI Hire’ Kamala Harris: ‘What About White Females?’

What about what about white females?
jesus tapdancing christ, he actually said that. In public. To a reporter.
We need to vote these ~~people~~ fucking racists into oblivion. They genuinely think her skin color is the most important thing about her. Get lost, my country doesn't need asswipes like you.
Shit like this makes me not even care what Kamala does as president. She could sit in the Oval Office and spin around in her chair for four years and still be leagues better than Trump. I'll vote for her just to upset the racists.
- The problem is their voters think race is the most important factor. They just need a way to imply it and act like they aren't racist.
  
  They're not even acting like they aren't racist why more. "What about white females" is literally a racist foghorn with a hint of incel
  
  The problem is Americans (left, right, center) aren't demanding this racist piece of shit to resign. This country has tolerated entirely too much racism, sexism, and phoney Christianity over the past 250 years. It's time we demand these people stop representing America and crawl back into their caves.
- jesus tapdancing christ, he actually said that. In public. To a reporter.
  He's from Tennessee. This will probably get him re-elected.
  (To be fair, he could say that 1001 elephants were standing on his toe and get re-elected.)
- I fully recall their fair and rational response last time a white woman ran for Presidents /s
- They're still people. Fucking racist people. People can be terrible.
  
  People? Wait, I thought we were talking about conservatives.

what about white females?
I read that in the ferengi voice on ds9. “Feeeemaaleeesssss”
You’d think we were in the Stone Age.
- Similar, only with early TNG Ferengi.
  
  Is the singular of Ferengi "Ferengus?"

What about them? One ran in 2016, remember?
- What about the E-males!
  
  Here I go once again with the e-mail / Every week I hope that it's from a fe-male!
  
  What about buttery males?
  
  Stop being woke.
  
  It's only a little bit of collisional with the DNC to fuck over Bernie.
  It was her turn.

What happened to white women? Well, she ran for office and you claimed she was unfit for office because women are emotionally unstable and something about emails that magically disappeared as soon as Ivanka got caught ACTUALLY deleting emails.

Abysmal record of, checks notes, being vp? Gtfo of here you clowns. Do better
- Points at brown woman
  “Why isn’t she white?”
  Somehow this is where our political discourse is
- And a Senator. And a District Attorney. Elected as both of those, not "hired."
  She hasn't been "hired" for anything. Of all the issues to take with her, calling her a "DEI Hire" has got to be the most ridiculous.
  What a truly idiotic position to take.
  
  Someone here on Lemmy yesterday said her record as a senator would hurt her because she didn't come up with any major legislation.
  As if voters give two shits about who comes up with what in congress and not just the result for them.

Did they just endorse Hilary?

Wow. The panic is palpable

Wooooow, him calling her unqualified is so cringe
Just compare their education and work

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamala_Harris
He’s straight up only qualified to run fucking Tennessee, what an embarrassment for him to call anyone else unqualified

what about white females
Aren't they supposed to be at home cleaning, cooking, raising kids, and missing out on health care?
Get fukt you backwards ass prick.

Good. The more racist they get, the more likely they will lose. There are a lot of racist Americans, make no mistake, but even a lot of them get a bad taste in their mouth when the racism gets overt from politicians. They want laws that benefit them as white people, they don't want to hear about how Biden is a friend to the N-s.
- They are actually questioning Biden's inherently racist decision to only consider black women for certain roles. The Republican position is that race should not be a factor in hiring decisions, and they're using Biden's VP and Supreme Court nominations to setup the counterpoint that he is the racist one - racist against whites.
  
  inherently racist decision
  Balancing the scales is not racism.
  
  The Republican position is that race should not be a factor in hiring decisions
  Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! The party of cronyism and nepotism, the least diverse political party? Really?

So Republicans fully support a white republican female as president?
Where is this candidate?
Oh right they're still on the "old white guy" train and it's not about skin color or gender beyond their racism and sexism.
I already need a second hand to count the number of times I've heard people saying "she used to be a prostitute" in public or at work, while also not remembering WHO said that, where they heard it from, or any sort of evidence to back it up beyond "I just pulled this out of my ass because she's a woman and that's what I associate women with"
- Nikki Haley passes for white enough, apparently.
  
  I wonder why Nimarata Randhawa doesn’t use her first and last names. Bit of a mystery, that.
- Not exactly. It's more that they are questioning Biden's decision to only consider black women for certain roles (VP, Supreme Court Justice). They know affirmative action polls poorly, so they're attacking him where he's weak.
  Americans, by and large, want people to be selected based solely on ability. They want everyone to have a fair chance - but despise the idea of guaranteed slots being held open for people who look a certain way. Even California outlawed affirmative action.
  This isn't the terrible double-standard you think it is - just a decently calibrated political attack.

- Yeah, but Trump doesn't have the lobes for it, either.

Sorry House Cons, did you say Hillary Clinton? It’s really hard to understand you with all that feces in your mouths.

Btw when the GOP says "DEI hire" they mean "
<n-word>
"
- All black people with jobs that aren't fast food worker or janitor are "DEI hires" because conservatives are racist and don't believe that black people can actually be qualified for any higher level job.
  You'll never see a conservative praise a business or department for clever hiring if the person/people they just hired happen to be black. It's either white person or DEI hire to their minds.
  
  What really frustrates me is the sudden latching in to a phrase or acronym. DEI has been corporate policy for a WHILE, in that exact wording. But all of a sudden it's this hot take talking point insult. Idk I've had a few beers I hope that makes sense
- I know this has been posted ad nauseam but it still makes me laugh.

I think no one would object if Republicans changed their mind to nominate a "white female" as their candidate. Just a reminder though, no Trump in drag, according to Republican policies that is no woman, right?
- Maybe Rudy Giuliani in drag. Would that work?
  (Btw, that actually happened. Google "Giuliani Drag Trump Motorboat" if you dare.)
  
  Google "Giuliani Drag Trump Motorboat" if you dare.
- Tbh, I'd like to see Trump in drag
  
  I'd like to see him in prison and then never again.
  
  Have a look at a photo of his mother. It's like something out of a comedy movie. It's just Donald with lipstick and a bizarre wig.
  
  I'm not judging, but damn that's a weird kink.

DEI
FYI: Diversity, equity and inclusion, not Department of Election Interference (which is currently staffed by Republicans anyway)
- Like CRT, it's one of their buzzwords for "bad thing" that I wouldn't know otherwise.
  
  cathode ray tubes?

Imagine the terror of a supporter of a rapist felon candidate, who you pretend is chosen by a fake Republican Jesus, being challenged by a candidate who has the audacity to be a woman and black.
And she’s going to win.

I made this joke 12 hours ago:
I want to create an account on whatever social media they're on and agree with them loudly and adding "What are they planning on doing for the white man?" or something similar to every statement.
The Democrats aren't about regular people anymore! What are they planning on doing for the white man?!?
Except I'm pretty sure a whole shit pile of them would agree with me and nominate me for something or other. Then I'd just be sad.
I guess it was less a joke and more prophetic.

If the GQP cared about white women they wouldn't have let their courts decimate Roe. Next ridiculous argument please.

Hopefully they will be voting for Harris to protect their lives and the lives of their daughters. The only future for women with the Republicans is servitude.

Just one real basic search and....
FBI has been ‘corrupted’ by Hillary Clinton and the Trump-Russia probe
Rep. Tim Burchett (but it's fox so maybe don't give em a click, just not gonna keep looking)

Will you shut up, mr nepotism, your dad brought your ivy league credentials.

Would the GOP like to have a white woman as a candidate as an alternative? No? Then STFU.
(I know, they'd probably give us Majorly Tugid Greens or something, but still.)

What about white females? The right would still call them derogatory names if they didn't completely and wholeheartedly submit to them.

They could always Dementia Don the racist rapist with 34 felonies that complete a coherent sentence drop out because he's too old, and replace him with a white female. Personally, I'd like to see that Jewish space lasers nutjob get her ass handed to her by our current VP.

He doesn't specify a species. Is he talking about female polar bears? Corn snakes? Albino rats?

Hey, anyone remember those old peanut butter cup ads? The ones where some peanut butter and chocolate get mixed together accidentally and people realize they taste good together?
This is just like those ads! Except with misogyny and racism, of course.
- And the mix tastes like shit.

Ah yes, the mythical white woman who would have raised $250 million in 24 hours instead of just a record breaking $100 million.
- Hilary… but they didn’t vote for her
  
  Hillary raised $90 million in the entire month of July.
  Harris raised $89 million in a single day in July.

Now they support white women.

If that's the best they got they're fucked

If I said some clown ass shit like this while representing my employer I'd get dropped so hard. Would love to see this turd face some consequences - other than having to live inside his own head anyway

Hey where da white women at?

Oh so you voted for Hillary then?

Your (current) logical fallacy is... Whataboutism!

They had their white representation for about ever and now have a chance to have their WOMEN representation.
/ not from the US.
