She said she's offended by the way that Democrats are applying the term to Republicans. They are eating it up on Facebook, as if she is a reasonable, prudent person.
I don't even know where to begin.

Btw, Rice called for Trump to drop out of the race back in October, late but on the right side. Nothing in the news about her, but this is interesting.
Cohen, who last week had urged career officials to serve in Trumps administration, said in an interview that a longtime friend and senior transition team official had asked him to submit names of possible national security appointees. After he suggested several people, Cohen said, his friend emailed him back in terms he described as very weird, very disturbing.
It was accusations that you guys are trying to insinuate yourselves into the administration all of YOU LOST. it became clear to me that they view jobs as lollipops, things you give out to good boys and girls, said Cohen, who would not identify his friend. Cohen also said the transition official was completely dismissive of concerns raised about Trumps appointment of Bannon, who Trumps advisors have strongly defended. His friends email conveyed the feeling that were so glad to see the bicoastal elites get theirs, added Cohen, who described the response as unhinged.
As a black woman, Rice would probably be considered for a position standing behind Trump at news conferences, but I'm guessing she won't apply for it.

(3,063 posts)She even said that she wasn't going to vote for Trump. Only the Repubilicans that voted for Trump are racist. What other reason could there have been to vote for an obviously unstable unqualified narcisistic crooked racist/sexist spoiled privileged billionaire? The white male POTUS was verge of becoming extinct.
