Rep. Jasmine Crockett isn’t one to bite her tongue, and she certainly maintained that brand during a recent appearance on The View.
Back in December of last year, Vice President JD Vance was bumping his gums at a Turning Point USA event and tossed some racist chum in water to rile up the crowd of shameless sharks who live to take bites of out of high-profile Black women.
“The record speaks for itself. She wants to be a senator, though her street girl persona is about as real as her nails,”
If there was ever a not-so-subtle white euphemism for the N-word, “street girl” is it. And what is the swipe at her fingernails all about? He has a lot of nerve.
When the senate-hopeful got to the desk with the ladies, Joy Behar wasted no time asking her to respond to Vance’s naked bigotry.
Via EW:
“First of all, my nails are real,”
She continued:
“Those that don’t have a college degree, by over 70 percent, choose me. That’s a demographic we’ve been losing,” she said. “So now he’s like, it’s all fake, don’t believe that. The reality is, I was a criminal defense attorney, I was a public defender, I am somebody who walked into plenty of jails and dealt with real killers. So, let me be clear, I understand what happens in the streets, but I don’t have to quote-unquote be a ‘street girl.'”
