Tim Scott in GOP response to Biden: 'Hear me clearly — America is not a racist country'
2021-04-30
[NYPOST] Sen. Tim Scott on Wednesday knocked President Joe Biden
...... 46th president of the U.S. Sleazy Dem mschine politician, paterfamilias of the Biden Crime Family......
for "empty platitudes" about national unity while also accusing the US of "systemic racism" in a blistering Republican response to Biden’s first speech to a joint session of Congress.

The South Carolina Republican said Democrats hypocritically talked about unity while filibustering his policing reform bill and rejecting GOP efforts to influence Biden’s recently passed $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief bill.

Scott, one of just three black senators, also said "America is not a racist country" — rejecting Biden’s recent assessment of America as systemically racist.

"Hear me clearly: America is not a racist country. It’s backwards to fight discrimination with different discrimination. And it’s wrong to try to use our painful past to dishonestly shut down debates in the present.

"Original sin is never the end of the story. Not in our souls and not for our nation. The real story is always redemption," Scott said.

#3  IMO, he's wrong. How do you call a country where members of one race get clear preference over the others in all circumstances?

#2  One might look at who is pushing the racism meme the hardest in this country. IMHO, it is coming from the Progressive left.
