The former Trump official joins a group of Republicans who have referred to the vice president as a diversity hire

Newsmax personality and former Trump aide Sebastian Gorka described Vice President Kamala Harris a “DEI hire” and “colored” in an interview on Tuesday.

In the segment, Gorka, himself accused of inflating his credentials as a terrorism expert, predicted that Biden will be forced to withdraw from the presidential race if major Democratic donors “pull the plug.”

    My point is, are the Republicans wrong? Is she not a diversity hire? Biden chose her, and he certainly acts like she’s a diversity hire.

    If Biden didn’t pick her as a diversity hire, he should act like it.

    Edit: Also, the fact that Democrats aren’t all rallying around Harris suggests that Democrats see her as a diversity hire.

    They want Buttigieg. They want Newsome. They want Whitmer. They want everyone but Harris.

      ?? Because he won’t step down, the VP is a DEI hire?!

      So if the VP was an old white man, and Biden wouldn’t step down, still a DEI hire? Ok.

          I know that Biden is racist because I’ve seen the way he doesn’t give a shit about the Palestinians.

          If Harris ever challenged him for the presidency, he’d probably drone strike her.
