False post.

McCain complained about the child knowing the allegation, and a slur word she knew about aimed at her. He did NOT complain about himself regarding the allegation.

I'm not so sure of that.

Mr. McCain, in a recent interview, said that after losing the South Carolina primary he felt sorry for himself and was angry... The bruising episode left him rancorous toward Mr. Bush, yet schooled in what it takes to win.

No, leftists don't get to complain about their opposition using the race card.

It's been the left's most played card for years. You're doing it right here in this thread. lol

I have no doubt Republicans are using the Race card and no doubt Dems are as well. They will use anything they think might work to keep them in power. Anyone who thinks otherwise is naive at best, stupid at worse.

Throw in a couple of 'for instance' citations and your post may be more credible.

Whatever the Republicans are doing, or not doing, its working.

In this election, a higher % of blacks and latinos will vote Republican than in 2020's national election.

The race card has lost much of its effectiveness for Dems. They need some new victims to exploit.

Well, there is this:

Quote:
Barrack had served as an informal campaign adviser to President Trump, a longtime friend of his, and chaired Trump’s inaugural committee. The 75-year-old California native has been testifying since Monday to defend himself against seven counts that include illegal lobbying and lying to the FBI while under investigation.

Part of his role, as Barrack saw it, was to do damage control around Trump’s inflammatory foreign policy ideas, including the Muslim ban and plan to build a wall at the border of Mexico and the United States.

“The Republican party had taken on the racist tone that came with the Muslim ban … China, South Korea, all those things,” Barrack testified.

If the Rep. party can increase AA support to roughly 17-18% and Hispanic vote into the 40 range the Dem leadership will have a serious problem.

I don't think there any groups left for the Dems to bestow victim status upon. The Asian population? Don't think so. Gay and transgender? Already baked in.

An open door border policy?? Problem is there's no longer a guarantee these new citizens will vote for Dems in numbers seen in the past

You should try this yourself.

I care. I do not want anyone as my state's governor who brags about being a Christian Nationalist and a misogynist, who has a history of making anti-Semitic statements, or who criticizes a (Jewish) opponent's commitment to his religion. Somehow I don't think Jesus would approve.

Yeah, seriously. The race card? In 2022? No way, I don't believe it! What a first, you never hear anything about race these days, never-ever.
