growing up in Boston with Meadows experience growing up in North Carolina. I also found it quite interesting that when Meadows spoke to Rep. Tlaib and she hugged him, his body language spoke volumes. He didn't hug back, arms to his side, and his whole body ridged.

All day yesterday and today I have been thinking "he IS a racist so why apologize?".Someone on DU posted the video of him at a Tea Party campaign stop and he said, "Send Obama back to Kenya". If that isn't racist I don't know what is. The GOP and their cult are racists. Period.

What's the story with MEADOWS "crying" over his yesterday's behavior?

What's the story with his clear racism - the Birtherism, and more - fitting with all of the above?

What's up with basically begging to be coddled and caressed and told he was a good boy and not racist at all. I really was hoping Rep. Cummings didn't entertain him... but alas, its usually up the person of color to "vindicate" a person from racism when it's expedient. He practically did the EXACT same thing with himself as he did with trump.

Dammit I'm friends with Black people...just like Trump! We are not racist!
