Tim Scott: Why Haven't 2020 Dems Spoken Out About That Racial Slur Against a KY Republican?

Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) is demanding answers from the 2020 Democrats. In Kentucky, African-American Republican AG candidate Daniel Cameron was the victim of a Democrat's racial slur, yet not a single one of the Democratic presidential candidates has bothered to speak out about it. 

In an interview with the Louisville Courier-Journal, a liberal civil rights attorney named Dawn Elliott accused Cameron of eating "Coon Flakes" the White House is serving. 

She went on.

“Daniel is slapping all the black ancestors in the face," Elliott said. "All their hard work, struggles and even death means nothing to him.”

Cameron clapped back on Twitter and said he's proud of his party affiliation. 

Yesterday, a liberal attorney said I should stop eating "coon flakes" in a @CourierJournal interview. I am a proud lifelong Republican, part of a diverse @KYGOP ticket, and yes I support @realDonaldTrump. It's time to stop telling black Americans what we're allowed to believe— Daniel Cameron (@djaycameron) August 7, 2019

The incident demanded a response from some Democratic Party leaders, and yet all we're hearing is "crickets," Sen. Scott observed.

"You’ve not heard a single Democrat presidential candidate speak out even an iota against these absolute vile comments about Daniel Cameron," Scott said on Fox News on Monday.

The Democrats have no issues, however, calling President Trump a racist nearly every day.

As Scott noted, Trump has endorsed Cameron in the Kentucky AG race. The senator also said he's more convinced than ever that Trump and the Republican Party will experience a massive victory next year.

The easy answer is that he’s a black republican and therefore is a traitor to his race. He doesn’t count a a victim of racism.

Silly goose. Everybody knows a Democrat can’t be a racist.

Senator Scott,

You raise a good question. It appears many Democrats and their media people are racist and want to keep black voters “on the planation.”

Thomas Sowell notably called them Mascot constituency.

Sometimes Tim Scott tends to pile on Trump over racial comments. At least he’s trying to be consistent here.

He’s uppity, and needs be reminded of his place, as a cool-aid-drinking, never-thinking good negro. Walkaway today.

There is only one thing the liberals hate more than a white conservative and that is a BLACK conservative.

If Elliot is black, she gets a pass for insulting another black. Sort of like how they get to say the n word and whites can’t. If she is white she still may get crickets due to the story hurting a dim. It is possible they’ll throw her under the bus as a diversion, but only if they have to. Hey, I don’t make the rules...

And the Dems have the nerve to call us racists after all the crap they do and say. They’ve appropriated the word racist; maybe we should appropriate the word “bigot” and constantly use it to refer to Democrats?

“There is only one thing the liberals hate more than a white conservative and that is a BLACK conservative.”

For whatever reason that is absolutely true.

As much as I love Scott, he has gone tribal once in a while. Hopefully his question is rhetorical, or else he’s as clueless as the rest of the Republicans in DC.

The reason is simple. I think men are all individual. When you start group thinking it is not a good thing. Judge a man as a man, an individual. A black conservative is more of a threat as being an independent individual, ruins the group think they use to divide us all.

Men of every color have died for our flag and our freedoms.

Dear Senator Scott,

As you doubtless KNOW, the DIMocRATS Party is the party of SCHOOL SEGREGATION, PREJUDICE, INTOLERANCE, HATE & of the KKK.

May I also remind you that in 2010 that President Obama talked about what a WONDERFUL & GODLY MAN that Senator Robert “KKK” Byrd (D-WV) was, that Byrd was “One of my very best friends” & “Senator Byrd is and for decades has been a SHINING STAR of our Party.”

At that same time, Senator Byrd was a SERVING NATIONAL NIGHTHAWK of THE INVISIBLE EMPIRE of the KNIGHTS of the KLU KLUX KLAN.
(On the night of his funeral, Senator Byrd’s friends & subordinates in the KKK had a formal/full-dress KKK gravesite memorial funeral service at his grave, complete with Senator Byrd’s robe, hood, Bible & revolver. - At the end of the gravesite ceremony, a 30+ foot cross was burned on a nearby hilltop, which could be seen for miles.)

The simple & inescapable FACT is that the DIMocRATS will accept ANYBODY, regardless of their prejudices, racist views & personal immoral behavior, is PERFECTLY ACCEPTABLE, provided that they have MONEY, POWER< POLITICAL INFLUENCE and/or can help the DIMocRATS WIN.

Otoh, if you are NOT a doctrinaire & “loyal” DIMocRAT, you will be reviled, ridicules & condemned, regardless of your good behavior, decency, talents, moral beliefs & honesty.

It’s really NO more complicated than that, so I’m NOT surprised that the insanely HATE-FILLED DIMocRATS fail to condemn the OVERT RACISM that was directed toward a Black GOP candidate. = To the RADICAL LEFTISTS, he must be a “deplorable creature” & MUST be REVILED & ATTACKED, as he is NOT a LIB & is a Republican.

Yours, TMN78247

The fact of the matter is that this alleged statement never was said.

How do I know? It hasn't been reported on ABCNBCCBSCNNMSNBC, therefore it didn't happen.
