Fox & Friends has Diamond and Silk on to explain eating fried chicken

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Just when you thought racial insensitivity couldn’t get stranger. Fox and Friends decided that they would do a segment on Steve Cohen’s stunt, eating chicken before the House session where AG Barr didn’t show up.

“He’s racially insensitive, that’s what I think,” Lynette Hardaway, known as Diamond on her YouTube commentary series, said on “Fox & Friends” on Friday. “Can you imagine if that was a Republican doing that to a Democrat? Just think about that for a moment.”

It’s unclear what about Cohen’s stunt, while nearly universally panned as silly, would constitute racial insensitivity. Both Barr and Cohen are white. Cohen represents Tennessee’s 9th District encompassing most of metropolitan Memphis. His constituency is two-thirds black.

1. Let me get this straight..

Fox "News" has on two black women to explain how one white guy eating fried chicken to poke at another white guy for being a coward, and the white guy eating the chicken is the one being racially insensitive? Did I get that right?

4. NO! You damned racist!

Shitfire.

2. Doesn't watching Fox News just make you stupider?

I'm frequently surprised at how many here seem to watch Fox News regularly.

3. I wonder if, in a few years, Diamond and Silk will reveal themselves to be performance artists

who have been punking us all along.

6. Or maybe they're just for sale like many other people in his orbit

8. That's more likely. But I like my scenario better

5. It's a planned strategy: When Trump was ridiculed for his inhospitality to the NCAA champs,

his paid shills had a ready-made distraction

11. Oy vey, the reich wing and their token Blacks.

How do those token Blacks come by their beliefs, I wonder? Because I sure don’t understand it.

13. I love fried chicken and watermellon

because it is delicious. Everybody loves it. I don't think eating really good food is racist.

Fried chicken is just good Missouri comfort food. My grandmother made it, my mother made it, I love it.
Just good old Missouri comfort food.

14. a person with intelligence would know the KFC is because its trump's preferred food choice nt

[MurrayDelph]

16. And (based on the last time I ate it)

It's horrible, but cheap.

If that doesn't sum up Donald Trump ...

15. Innerestin to see those repugs' keen awareness of racism.

Can't slip a dog-whistle past THEM.
