I think the criticism stems from the fact that with a non-white candidate there is a presumption that their identity is part of their appeal and that must therefore be questioned. Why don’t we ask similar questions about the appeal of white candidates?

‘Respectful’ would have been to just shut up and eat your food. You low-key tried to “birther” her at the expense of your dignity. Hope it was worth it

Honestly, once you falsely accused Maxine Waters of assaulting you, it became really difficult to give you the presumption of innocence. That's why you shouldn't have wasted your credibility like that. Could have come in handy later.

I really don't like the fact that you thought it was your place to raise such a question in the first place, Mason.
