Race card wearing thin for AOC even among Democrats

Randy Weiss and Jeff Dunetz:
Rep. William Lacy Clay leveled Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her ‘squad’ for resorting to using the race card in their feud with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

Clay (D-MO), who has served in the House for nearly two decades, slammed her comments as “inappropriate” and “weak.” He also noted making such arguments shows a certain level of ignorance for this nation’s past when it comes to real racism.

“It was such a weak argument to say she was being picked on and that four women of color were being picked on by the speaker,” he said. “It tells you the level of ignorance to American history on their part as to what we are as the Democratic Caucus.”

Clay’s bold comments show a Democrat party that’s further fracturing thanks to Ocasio-Cortez’ willingness to attack everyone in her party with petulant temper tantrums when she doesn’t get her way.

It’s become quite clear that establishment Democrats are tired of AOC’s games.

Clay wasn’t through with his insults for Ocasio-Cortez and her freshman colleagues.

“Their ignorance is beyond belief,” he said.

“It is so inappropriate. So uncalled for. It does not do anything to help with unity. It was unfair to Speaker Pelosi,” Clay added.

Now, we’re all with you on the ignorance part, but unfair might be a stretch. After all, outrage over a Democrat using the race card rings a bit hollow since every member of the party has resorted to that argument against Republicans in the past. You’re really just upset because she used it against one of your own.
...
The Democrat race card has been wearing thin ever since they started using it against President Trump and other Republicans.  Now that it is being used against their own people they are finally noticing how absurd the assertions are.  But that did not stop Democrats and their media cohorts from using the bogus charges against the President when he attacked the AOC squad not on their race but on their goofy policies and their anti-American positions.

BTW, when CNN interviewed a real white nationalist, he told them "Trump gives us nothing."  That had to be a disappointment for the anti-Trump network.
