President Biden called a Black adviser “boy” during a Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) briefing on Monday.
The president used the term while introducing his senior adviser Cedric Richmond, a former Louisiana congressman.
“I’m here with my senior adviser and boy who knows Louisiana very, very well and New Orleans, Cedric Richmond,” Biden said at a press briefing with FEMA after Hurricane Ida rocked Louisiana.
GOP national spokesperson Paris Dennard blasted Biden for the slip, pointing out that Richmond is “a 47 year old man.”
“While JaRon Smith was 38 years old when he was in a similar role for President Trump I can assure he was not called a ‘boy’ by President Trump,” Dennard wrote on Twitter. “Joe Biden just continues to insult Black men openly and in public because he doesn’t care.”
