It's pathetic that it's only 4.

That's 0.9% of the House Republicans that are black.

Blacks make up 14.6% of America. The Republicans need to put at least 28 more blacks into House seats to make their side of the House representative of what America actually looks like. But I guess that won't happen for as long as Republicans continue gerrymandering, disenfranchisng and otherwise screwing blacks over.

Here's your opportunity to fix some of that if you actually want any credibility.

Why do leftists only see color?

Why did the guy nominating Donalds bring up Martin Luther King Jr. In his speech?

It's hilarious and self-unaware that Republicans actually still try to tout themselves as "the party of Lincoln"

Not the comeback you think it is. We don't "only see color." But we do recognize the REALITY that America is an ethnically and culturally diverse nation, and we represent it as such - as opposed to the GOP, which is 99% homogenous white culture.

The question is, why don't Republicans represent the REAL America?

Don’t kid yourself that Democrats represent the “real” America either. The entire Democratic power structure from donors to lobbyists to staffers to consultants to PAC directors is white. Rare black tokens in places of visibility who answer to white people and everyone else Black acting as lowly foot soldiers do not representation make. Democrats look good on diversity only in comparison to Republicans. We have TWO white-dominated parties that exploit racial minorities, especially Black people, in this country.

This is untrue and typical conservative projection. Democrats go out of their way to give opportunities and put minorities in the positions of power. In the House, 25.3% of the House Democrats are black, which exceeds the paltry 0.9% of the Republicans, to even it out to 14.9% overall, which is in fact reflective of black population percentage in America.

+1 I count seven Black House Committee chairs in the last Congress. How many in the 118th? If Donalds was good enough to be Speaker why isn’t he chairing a committee?

As a black conservative leaning man, I am highly offended. However, I can’t say that I’m surprised.

Sigh….

Let’s try this again. Elected politicians =/= the mostly unelected power structure in the party. If you don’t understand that, then there’s no point talking further with you.

You should be offended by the GOP's hugely lackluster support for conservative blacks.

Oh, right. The REAL power, behind the politicians. Yeah, we know about elite donors - and know the ones who fund Republicans apparently don't like blacks, which is why the Republicans elect so few. The elected politicians are a reflection of the donors and power brokers, so it changes nothing about the argument. Or was the intelligent answer not enough, and you'd prefer something like "Elite baby eating cabal" or "The Jews" or "Illuminati" or "Shapeshifting alien reptoids" or whatever?

I don't know who you are, but this is a huge tiresome trope and seems to be all you can say. Get a new schtick please.

DP. If you don't like being called the leopards-eating-faces party then maybe you ought to change your ways and stop supporting and electing people that constantly make you come across that way. It's not us, it's you.

DP. Wow, the irony. It is, indeed, you. You repulse people and this thread is exhibit A.

Irony? Seems you don't understand the definition of irony. You're "repulsed" by people calling out how bad your party actually is?

For the last 20+ years your party has had no productive platform whatsoever. It's all been about disenfranchising/attacking/otherwise screwing over minorities, opposing any measure of progress for the sole sake of reactionary "own the libs" idiocy, trying to gut the social safety net, giving billionaires massive handouts while screwing over the working class, rolling back regulations that protect consumers, protect workers, protect the environment, and trying to gut revenue and cut programs and acting like we can operate as if it were 1780, which would make us a third-world nation by today's standards. That's the kind of leopards-eating-faces reality that you need to own up to and acknowledge, rather than clinging to your false denial and your performative acting "repulsed." Speaking the truth is somehow "ironic" or "repulsive?" No, again, it's not us, it's you.

Do you see Asians and Middle-Easterners as people of color or white?

"I don't see color" says the party that only has a tiny percentage that isn't minority, as compared to the actual demographics of America.

You are delusional. You probably think Blacks have no voice in the Democratic Party but also despise the Democrats as too woke because they are obsessed with Voting Rights, Affirmative Action, CRT, police brutality, housing discrimination, job discrimination, etc.

When the racists, who worship the confederacy, support the modern GOP, and the modern GOP doesn't condemn that support, then who are the racists?

Are you really representing the hard-earned wins of Black politicians as opportunities Democrats “gave” them?
