He’s a master against the idiot reporters.
Doesn’t insult them. Just humiliates them.

I’ve been associated with historic preservation for more than 20 years. Specifically at Ante Bellum/Colonial Louisiana homes.
This is an aspect of slavery that has been written about and studied since before slavery was abolished.
In nowhere in the curriculum was it suggested that slavery was a “beneficial” thing. It merely states what is common sense. Those who had skills i.e. blacksmithing, carpentry, and cooking were at an advantage over those who had spent their lives picking cotton or cutting cane.
Harris lied about what is in the curriculum, and Donalds, I’m sure at the urging of the Trump people, double down on the lie.
People are not going to forget Donalds lying about this.

I will listen latter. I can't right now. I'm sure Ron had a good response. He does best when challenged by adversarial reporters.

He could just refer them to the black man that wrote that curriculum....but this was more fun.

Byron Donalds is no better than the race hustlers on the Left.

I posted this in the Donalds thread but any Republican joining with Kamala and liberals to smear a political opponent should be ashamed.

It's reminiscent of Trump's 2015 speech stating a truth, that some rapists and murderers were crossing our southern border.

The left and the media falsely claimed that Trump "called Mexicans rapists and murderers". Then a bunch of weak Republicans joined the liberals in their condemnation of Trump stating a simple truth.

Now the roles are being reversed and the same people who were outraged back in 2015 are giddy to repeat the same cowardly attack on a political opponent.

That’s a good response.

I especially liked how he asked if the reporter had actually read the curriculum he’s asking pointed questions about and tying the reporter’s ignorance to Kamala.

It's ironic that this was all orchestrated by Team Trump to create a racial controversy for DeSantis. Rather than supporting a conservative undoing years of ideological corruption of K-12, Trump's people did this.

This is what happens when you join Trump. You might be an up and coming leader like Donalds, but you end up being a merely a black face for Team Trump to exploit in trying to create a mini scandal for a rival (by attacking an unprecedented conservative educational effort, no less). They're just disgusting folks.

Are you kidding me? The benefits of slavery?

Slavery was bad for everyone in every way, period. There were no benefits. Our country would not be in the shape it is in had there been no slavery.

Some people involuntarily were taught some skills other's prized at the time. No politician worth his salt would ever mutter such a thing in public or put it in a textbook. No politician except those pandering to racists.

He does pretty well most of the time.

I know that’s an unpopular opinion with “the members”.

No one other than the mentally ill would pretend to be offended or incensed by it either, for what its worth.
