Jamil Smith on Twitter: "All these black voters being praised as saviors on Election Day can’t buy a house, start a business, or raise families with your congratulations. The kudos are deserved and surely appreciated, but @GDouglasJones will need to get to work for them."

  Meanwhile, practically every white woman on TV is talking about a woman's victory and how women "showed up." I need some ice cream!

  And he will, as soon as a bunch of old white Republicans agree to seat him. Don't blame Dems for that. Doug didn't take anything for granted, and African-Amercian voters were the first group he thanked.
