VA LT Gov Rips Into Joy Reid: ‘Let’s See If She’s Woman Enough’

Officials like Winsome Sears just set race-baiting nutjobs like Joy Reid on fire. After Sears was elected as the LT Governor of Virginia, Reid went in for the attack. Sears, a black, female immigrant and life-long Republican discredit Reid’s claim that the right is racist and the MSNBC host can’t stand it.

After Ried made her snarky little garbage comments, Sears ripped her a new one and dared Reid to be ‘woman enough’ to invite her on her show:

“We are framing too many issues in terms of race and it just continues to divide us. And unfortunately, politicians are using it as a tool, because of the things that have happened to us historically, to advance, I would think, their nefarious purposes. And so if we stop just looking at race and just looking at people—because you see, I’m destroying all the narratives about race.”

“Look at me, look at me, I am a heartbeat away from the governorship in case anything happens to the governor,” Sears said, “and how are you going to tell me that I’m a victim. And I didn’t do anything special to get here, except stay in school and study, I took advantage of the opportunities that are available here in America. I wasn’t born here. This is not my culture, not my country. But it allowed me America allowed me to come and do for myself and for my family.

“And I remember when I was wanting to go to college, I had three children under five, my husband took a lower-paying job so he could stay home because he already had his degree. And I put one of my children on the back of a bicycle so that I could get to college. So nobody can say to me, I don’t know what it is to be poor. You’re looking at the American dream. So we can do better.”

“And it’s not 1963 when my father came at the height of the Civil Rights Movement, 17 days before Martin Luther King Jr. gave his I Have a Dream speech. We’re better than that. We’re always gonna have problems. I understand that. I’m not saying we’re perfect. But you can see those people at the border right now. Trying to get in, they’re dying to get in because they know if they can put a foot on American soil, the trajectory of their lives will change just as it did for my father,” Sears said.

The host asked Sears to reply to Reid’s comments and referred back to a clip of Reid claiming that Sears somehow perpetuates racism:

“I wish Joy Reid would invite me on her show,” Sears said. “Let’s see if she’s woman enough to do that, I’d go in a heartbeat. And we’d have a real discussion without Joy speaking about me behind my back if you will.”

“She talks about white supremacy. Does she know that I ran against a white supremacist? I mean Joy, come on, get your facts straight, and then come talk to me.”

Watch

At this time, Reid has not taken Sears up on her offer but I truly hope she does. I doubt the cowardly host would know how to handle a strong guest like Sears who threatens her everything Reid represents—Division, divisiveness, and racism. Sears would destroy all of that.
