GOP Wants Hakeem Jeffries To Apologize For ‘Fight’ Comments

If President Donald Trump and the MAGA-fied GOP are nothing else, they’re a bottomless open bar of white tears, hypocrisy, caucasity and Karen power. For all of their robust speak about revolution, “civil battle,” the weak point of “the left,” and large, unhealthy MAGA alfa-males, all they should hear is something remotely aggressive popping out of a Black particular person’s mouth for them to enter full snowflake mode and begin crying about “violent rhetoric.”

Just lately, white conservatives have misplaced their rattling thoughts over comparatively benign remarks made by Home Minority Chief Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.), which they’ve deliberately misconstrued as a menace to “battle” Trump and his MAGA goons “on the street.”

First, let’s begin with what Jeffries actually said.

“Proper now, we’re going to maintain concentrate on the necessity to look out for on a regular basis New Yorkers and on a regular basis People who’re beneath assault by an excessive MAGA Republican agenda that’s making an attempt to chop taxes for billionaires, donors, and rich firms after which stick New Yorkers and working-class People throughout the nation with the invoice,” Hakeem Jeffries mentioned throughout a press convention, alongside Congressional Black Caucus Chair Yvette Clarke, the place he criticized Trump’s dealing with of the latest air collision in Washington, D.C., together with his short-lived freeze on federal funding and his absurd and factless suggestion that DEI practices had something to do with the tragedy. “That’s not acceptable. We’re going to battle it legislatively. We’re going to battle it within the courts. We’re going to battle it within the streets.”

Now, the Trump administration’s whiney-ass response:

“Whereas President Trump stays centered on uniting our nation and delivering the mandate set by the American individuals, the Home Minority Chief, Hakeem Jeffries, incites violence calling for individuals to battle ‘within the streets’ towards President Trump’s agenda,” White Home deputy press secretary Kush Desai instructed Fox Information Digital. “This unhinged violent rhetoric is harmful. Chief Jeffries ought to instantly apologize.”

Proper-wingers up and down social media predictably adopted swimsuit in abandoning any semblance of logic, deliberately ignoring the “battle it legislatively” and “battle it within the courts” a part of Jeffrey’s speech and deciding he was making some gangsta-ass pro-riot assertion simply because he used the phrases “on the street.”

Once more, the caucasity right here is simply overflowing.

Let’s simply put aside the truth that, in 2021, Trump instructed Jan. 6 rioters to go to the Capitol and “battle like hell” simply moments earlier than they went to the Capitol and attacked cops, broke by barricades, scaled walks, broke into workplaces and threatened legislators — all impressed by Trump’s baseless election fraud propaganda. Overlook about all of that.

Violent rhetoric has turn into a GOP love language because the get together collectively bowed all the way down to Trump, normalizing his infantile tantrums, boorish habits, bigoted remarks and propaganda that has confirmed to be harmful. Talking of which…

In 2021, just some months after the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, Republicans who had simply gotten completed defending their MAGA cultist from being impeached for uplifting the riot, which they vehemently denied they did, tried the identical white, fragile and Karen-esque nonsense with Rep. Maxine Waters that they’re making an attempt with Jeffries now.
