MSNBC host Joy Reid garnered backlash after she claimed that members of the Republican Party are no longer allowed to say that slavery was terrible.

On Thursday, Republican presidential candidate and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis swiped at Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., continuing to defend the state's new school history curriculum.

DeSantis' comments came after Donalds took issue with one of the lines from the new state standards, arguing "the attempt to feature the personal benefits of slavery is wrong & needs to be adjusted." He called the rest of the standards "good, robust and accurate."

Stupid ignorant broad

I don’t know if she is even a woman, but I do know this: she is definitely a maroon, in the words of Bugs Bunny.

[Paladin2]

Is she talking about wage slavery?

Listening to the MSM slavery?

[Levy78]

The descendants of America’s African slaves are better off than virtually all black populations anywhere around the globe. STFU, joy. A simple thank you every now and then would be nice.

[Tell It Right]

I’m always amazed at how people in the party that went to war to keep blacks in chains make out like the party that was literally created for abolition is somehow the party of slavery.

[Sarah Barracuda]

She’s a total fraud, read her blog, she’s a phony..no one can blog the way she did and do a 180 that quickly

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Says the cretin who has no problem with FJB ferreting thousands of sex slaves across the southern border at this very moment.

Guess she plans on drinking the adrenochrome of a few of them.

[Vaduz]

Agree

Little does she know or will admit to there is more slavery in the world now then when it was legal.

It doesn’t fit her agenda

[Da Coyote]

“Stupid ignorant broad”
Only on the very best day she (or rather - it) has ever had.

[Vigilanteman]

Pretty rich coming from the party that fought a bloody civil war to preserve slavery and would like to make all of us in flyover country slaves to serve the coastal and big city elites.

[thegagline]

This is thanks the Republicans get for freeing the slaves. It is almost beyond comprehension that the blacks continuously vote for their enslavers.

[LuxAerterna]

The real outrage is that there’s a network, even MSNBC, that would give airtime to such a miserable creature.

[Celtic Conservative]

Slavery is bad. And Dems are all for it.

[Savage Beast]

The Republican Party was founded as the ANTI-SLAVERY PARTY to combat the pro-slavery Democrat Party, and the two have never changed.

A course of study in US history would be a good place for this woman to begin her education.

[hanamizu]

Pretty sure that Republicans said all that needed to be said about slavery in the years 1856 to 1870. Perhaps if Joy read a little history...

[UnwashedPeasant]

Democrats remain the party of human trafficking.

[From The Deer Stand]

Hey Joy, Republicans ended slavery. Tens of thousands of whites died.

[kenmcg]

Fact is there is no place on earth where blacks are doing as good as in the USA. Slavery was evil and it has been rectified a long time ago.

[cowboyusa]

Black men are slowly shifting GOP, gotta try to scare them. 😡
