This year’s RNC may be a grand old segregated party.

Republican National Convention organizers are scrambling to replace signs labeling a bank of elevators the “white elevators.”

The Jim Crow-esque signs were seen in Cleveland’s Quicken Loans Arena, where thousands of Republican delegates, politicians and supporters are expected to formally nominate bombastic businessman Donald Trump as their party’s presidential pick this week.

The elevators are probably called White Elevators because the actually work!!!

Would an elevator with a gay pride flag or banner on it be considered colored only?

"The Dem operatives who put up the signs?"

There's no perp. There are also "red" elevators and "blue" elevators. Red, white and blue.

I think “Washington” was dropped from Redskins because of the corruption in Washington. chuckle

I tweeted them back, asking “Where are the ‘Colored’ elevators?”

Well you know what I mean. It is the White House in general.
Meaning the BIG House.
