Showing Original Post only (View all)Paul Ryan ‘Selfie’ With Young Republicans Backfires When Internet Notices One VERY Telling Detail [View all]
GOP House Speaker Paul Ryan loves to pretend that the GOP doesnt have a race problem. The 2012 autopsy report from the spectacular loss of the Romney/Ryan ticket to President Obama and Vice President Biden had a lot of so-called minority outreach goals. Clearly, none of those goals have been accomplished. After all, the current GOP standard-bearer, Donald Trump, has run a campaign that is steeped in racism. He kicked off his campaign by calling Mexican immigrants rapists and criminals, he has called for a ban on all Muslims entering the United States, has called women fat pigs and dogs, and accused Fox host and debate moderator Megyn Kelly of being menstrual when called out on this, and a whole host of other things that play to the bigotry that is so inherent in the current incarnation of the GOP.
All of that aside though, there is one very telling photo making the rounds on the internet that perfectly illustrates just how, well WHITE the Republican Party is, despite the wide range of diversity that makes up the actual country. Its a priceless selfie of Paul Ryan showcasing himself with bunches of young republicans, and you wont see one face of color in that grand sea of white. For your viewing pleasure (or disgust) here is the tweet of that photo:
