quote:

The six staffers have left the roughly 70-person Nevada team since November, during a critical stretch of the race. Three of them said they felt marginalized by the campaign, a situation they said didn’t change or worsened after they took their concerns to their superiors or to human resources staff.


quote:

Another recently departed staffer, granted anonymity because she feared reprisal, echoed that sentiment. “I felt like a problem — like I was there to literally bring color into the space but not the knowledge and voice that comes with it,” she said in an interview.

She added: “We all were routinely silenced and not given a meaningful chance on the campaign. Complaints, comments, advice, and grievances were met with an earnest shake of the head and progressive buzzwords but not much else.” A third former staffer who was also granted anonymity said those descriptions matched her own experience.

When will minorities realize that liberals don’t want them to think for themselves and just want them to shut up and let them “help them”.

Bootygig had a similar situation with his campaign workers. Minorities are learning that the dems only want them around for the optics and self-congratulatory back-patting.

Or they went on the warpath.
Too bad they couldn’t bury the hatchet, maybe share a peace pipe.

tokens finally realize they are tokens, so they move to another dimrat socialist campaign (most likely bernie) who will just pander to them and use them as token props just like warren did

Yep.

They are props, not people to them.

Speaking of this: given what we now know about the connections between Bootyjudges campaign and shadow app/ acronym company, coupled with his declaration of victory before a single result was released, its now VERY obvious how he managed to have 2 rows of black “supporters” lined up behind him in said victory speech. It was all part of the plan.

There’s no way that his campaign, who polls TERRIBLE with minorities, managed to have that many black people randomly show up to his headquarters in IOWA. ZERO CHANCE.

I’d bet they weren’t even from IOWA.

Liberals use minorities as props and then accuse their opponents of doing what it is they already do

When liberals create commercials or photo ops or anything similar they bend over backwards 2 count vaginas and skin tones. This by definition is using people as props

Meanwhile even though I can't stand him when Romney had the gall to include his one minority extended family member that was adopted in a photo liberals lost their f****** minds

We saw how Bootygig lined up black women behind him in Iowa the other night. It didn't go over well with black people because it's transparently tokenism and an insult.

It's about 30 years too late, but it's a start.

Can you imagine this goofy woman sitting down with Lil Kim to negotiate a deal?

I don't think they were. Certainly not all of them, anyway. The pretty one in the gray coat is not from Iowa. I forget her name but I was looking at her instagram the other day.

How are these people so fake? It's like they're not even human
