The congresswoman accused by a United Airlines passenger of bumping her from a first-class seat tweeted Tuesday that she believes the passenger was only upset because she is black.

'Since this was not any fault of mine, the way the individual continued to act appeared to be, upon reflection, because I was an African American woman, seemingly an easy target along with the African American flight attendant who was very, very nice,' the 67-year-old Democrat tweeted Tuesday.

'But in the spirit of this season and out of the sincerity of my heart, if it is perceived that I had anything to do with this, I am kind enough to simply say sorry. But as an African American, I know there are too many examples like this all over the nation.'

Just imagine what she would be saying if it had been one of the Trumps.

Such magnanimity from this wise woman of color.

God i wish it was a black woman whose seat she stole, it would have made this story so much better and negated the Race Card play.

The gerrymandering that has to be done to get people like SJL elected is pathetic.

Imagine if one of the trumps bumped SJL out of her first class seat and put her in coach.

Huh. So EVERY individual pissed at her for bumping them out of their seat is racist?

As the old saying goes, if you go along your day and deal with one a-hole, they’re an a-hole. If you go along your day and everyone’s an a-hole, you’re the a-hole.

The thing that pisses me off the most is that she has Global Services status with UA. My bet is she harassed UA enough for them to give it to her.
