Democrat state representative in Michigan running against Asian-American opponent tells voters: "Don't vote for the ching-chong!"

Trump gets elected, and there's open racism in America! :lol:


Detroit Rep. Bettie Cook Scott on Asian opponent: 'Don't vote for the ching-chong!'

More than a dozen community groups have called on Rep. Bettie Cook Scott (D-Detroit) to apologize for a series of racial slurs sources say she used to describe her primary election opponent, Rep. Stephanie Chang (D-Detroit).

Scott is alleged to have referred to Chang as "ching-chang" and "the ching-chong" to multiple voters outside polling precincts during last Tuesday's election. She's also said to have called one of Chang's campaign volunteers an “immigrant,” saying “you don’t belong here” and “I want you out of my country.”

Chang and Scott were running in the Democratic primary for state Sen. District 1. Chang won the election with 49 percent of the vote; Scott came in third with 11 percent of the vote.

The bigoted election opponent already has the Trump supporter behavior nailed down - attack non-whites and immigrants.

Another difference: this opponent is dead in the water now for the primary, meanwhile sane Republicans still struggle to stop you Trump supporters from voting for literal Nazis so they can earnestly say they’re not the Nazi party. :lol:

Head held in hands at this. This is too far even for me. Not OK.

Democrats will condemn her for her racism, while the GOP just wouldn't care. It's not that Democrats can't do wrong, it's that we hold ourselves accountable.

AspeE, you're giving right wingers too much credit. If she ran as a Republican, she would have gained points and would now be set to win the primary.

So Democrats call for a Dixiecrat to apologize and this proves Trump and his Nazis aren’t racist? :lol:

All this shows is racism is rising across the board and there are still Dixiecrats to kick out. Don’t worry, they’ll run to your side - they historically do.
