    Leonard Pitts, Jr. Retweeted Slim Smith

    With due respect for the noble outliers within the party who are stubbornly trying to call it back to its best self, I believe the modern GOP is a haven for the rankest kind of bigotry. It is racist riddled. Shoot the messenger if you want, but it doesn’t change the problem.https://twitter.com/SlimSmith5/status/1036445215266103298 …

    "As a whole?" IN other words, "yeah, but it's not what EVERY Republican believes, just most of us." https://twitter.com/LeonardPittsJr1/status/1036409479607345152 …

        It’s not the #GOP now, it is the party of trump. They are not the same. If the ##GOP wants to survive, there is much work to be done!

        Include Farrakhan in your statement “White folks are going down. And Satan is going down. And Farrakhan, by God's grace, has pulled the cover off of that Satanic Jew and I'm here to say your time is up, your world is through," he later said. What hate!

        Vote Democrat across the board. It’s the only way to force restructuring the GOP; however, even then the racism will merely be covered by a thin veneer of respectability.

        “Noble outliers?” Who are they? I would appreciate knowing that they exist.

        At best they are enablers. Their silence to this behavior is deafening

        If you are a racist in America, or if you have mild racist inclinations, with which party will you affiliate? There’s only one choice.

        As you said once, not every Republican is a racist, but every racist identities as a Republican.
