"Republicans Ain't Sh*t!" Reecie Colbert Comes For The GOP In New Book About 2022 Midterms
Over the years, BlackWomenViews founder and political analyst Reecie Colbert has ruffled quite a few feathers with her audacious takes on cultural happenings. She has appeared on MSNBC’s Cross Connection with Tiffany Cross as well as the Symone Sanders’ show. Perhaps she is best known as a regular commentator on Roland Martin Unfiltered, where she expresses herself with equal parts intelligence and bravado.
Her new digital book, “Long and Short Of It Guide To The 2022 Midterms: The Radical Republicans,” is (as Colbert describes) a “quick and dirty read” that profiles 20 GOP candidates with racist, sexist and regressive ideologies. Colbert tells The Root about how the Republican party is the most dangerous its ever been.
“We’re always focused on the Democrats and ‘the Democrats ain’t doing this, the Democrats ain’t doing that, the Democrats didn’t cancel my student debt.’ We need to recognize the Republicans’ will to either obstruct progress or to enact their agenda and it’s a very regressive agenda. These people do not have a plan to make society better—they only have a plan to deconstruct it. They only want to disenfranchise and marginalize...that’s their only plan.”
From Texas Governor Gregg Abbott to U.S. Senate Candidates Herschel Walker (Georgia) and J.D. Vance (Ohio), Colbert explains that hatred remains one of the core principles of the GOP. “J.D. Vance is running the most vile campaign, hands down...like he’s explicitly appealing to racists. He says: ‘Do you hate Mexicans? Are you racist?’ Like that’s an actual line from a commercial. His campaign is all about white grievance—he’s a Kyle Rittenhouse supporter.”
