It took less than 24 hours for MAGAts to launch an endless social media tirade against the vice president
Listen: We really didn’t need any more evidence of the demonstrable racism and sexism of Donald Trump, the GOP and the MAGA world, but if we did need more evidence, we would easily be singing, “My cup runneth over” now that Vice President Kamala Harris is the presumptive Democratic nominee for president. Harris isn’t even the official nominee yet, but after President Joe Biden announced he was dropping out of the race and endorsed his VP, it took less than 24 hours for Bigots R Us Americans to launch an endless social media tirade against her, calling her a “DEI hire”—which she was already being called before Biden dropped out. Almost worse than the false and insulting remark, these people are taking shots at her intelligence generally and making remarks about the 59-year-old’s supposed sexual promiscuity and how it got her where she is today.
Gentle reminder: These hateful fake statements come from the supporters of a man who has had multiple wives, multiple mistresses and also who was found liable for rape–and a man whose businesses filed for bankruptcy six times–and makes not paying his employees par for the course.
First, let’s start with Trump, who got himself dragged for calling Harris “dumb as a rock,” which immediately prompted folks to point out that the commander-in-cancer-causing-windmills-and-Lysol-injections really doesn’t have room to talk.

Don’t get me wrong, Trump pivots to personal insults on everyone who he’s up against, but there are certain insults—typically the ones that involve intelligence or gender-related bodily functions—he reserves for women, and, more specifically, Black women and women of color. In this case, he’s the Trump calling the pumpkin orange as he is simply not the person who should be calling anyone “dumb.”
Next up, we have white America’s new favorite N-word alternative, “DEI hire.”
