MSNBC Star Blames White Women After Kamala Harris Loses North Carolina to Trump
Joe Hutchison, Daily Mail, November 6, 2024
Liberal commentator Joy Reid has blamed the Democrats’ loss in North Carolina on ‘white women.’
Reid had been speaking on the MSNBC election night panel when the critical swing state went in favor of Trump.
She said: ‘In the end, they didn’t make their numbers. We have to be blunt about why, black voters came through for Harris, white women voters did not.
‘That is what it appears happened in the state. That message was not enough to get enough white women to vote for Vice President Harris.
‘This will be the second opportunity that white women in this country have to change the way they interact with the patriarchy.’
The Tar Heel state had been a key target for both campaigns and was the scene of some frenzied campaigning.
Reid was instantly slammed online for her comments, with the majority criticizing her of being a racist.
One person commented: ‘For Joy Reid, it’s always about white people instead of people. She will never change that mindset.’
Another posted: ‘I wish Joy Reid and Kamala Harris were a package deal. We could get rid of both these racist in one night.’
Speaking earlier on the show she had also lashed out at the state of Florida, branding it ‘extremely right-wing fascist’.
‘Think about the last two weeks and the things that Donald Trump has said into the TV that people could hear him say and do,’ she said.
‘The vulgarity in front of families with young children and the threats to do mass deportation and a violent start to his dictatorship on day one, you name it.’
After Florida was called for Trump early in the evening, Reid said: ‘It’s a pure Project 2025 in miniature in Florida.
‘That extremist sort of right-wing, fascist type government in Florida, does that make it more of an attractive place?’
And when Texas was called for Trump, Reid described black voters in Houston as ‘deeply suppressed.’
