MSNBC: Minorities in the GOP ‘Take the Humiliation From Donald Trump’ #Political
Not long after MSNBC’s Joy Reid decried the reasonable notion that former President Trump should be viewed as a “victim” after literally getting shot in the head during a failed assassination attempt, during their Monday coverage of night one of the Republican National Convention, she took disgusting swipes at the minority Republicans who were vying to be his vice president; suggesting they “take they humiliation from Donald Trump” and harm their races.
MSNBC actually ignored nearly all of the speeches during night one, say for the first two minutes and 20 seconds of Senator Tim Scott’s (R-SC). MSNBC host Rachel Maddow interrupted Scott to mock his speech and claim, without evidence, that he was delivering the VP acceptance speech he would have used if he was picked. MSNBC Host Alex Wagner chimed in to say Scott had no dignity:
MADDOW: South Carolina Senator Tim Scott, not chosen as Donald Trump's vice presidential running mate. But he’s sticking with, I think, what would be the same speech had he would have given had he been chosen.
WAGNER: Adjust Tim! Adjust! For your own dignity, adjust. But no such adjustments were made.
They essentially paved the way for Reid, who broadened the criticism to all the black, Latino, and Indian Republican politicians who were on Trump’s short list.
Reid suggested they were humiliating themselves for Trump because he was supposedly never really considering picking a minority vice presidential candidate:
REID: Part of the price of MAGAdom, particularly if you are a person of color is to take the humiliation. You know? I mean, Nikki Haley was not even invited, she was ostentatiously disinvited from this convention. Yet, she still said, I pledge all my delegates to Trump.
MADDOW: And then they reversed it.

REID: Tim Scott humiliated himself daily and then has continued to do so on this stage. I am stunned. And sad for him in the display he just did. But the humiliation of Tim Scott is part of the game and its part of the price. Marco Rubio has been allowing himself to be humiliated by Donald Trump since he drank the tiny water bottle. Like, he’s never going to stop letting Trump humiliate him.
“Allowing yourself to take the humiliation from Donald Trump is the price of being part of his army,” she chided. “I mean, he enjoys humiliating these people and making them jump through hoops. I mean, Byron Donalds was no more going to be his vice president as he was going to be speaker.”
She then ranted about how they were supposedly helping Trump to “abuse” their communities. “It’s just, I am sad for the folks who are willing to take this kind of abuse, because it is communitywide abuse. It is an abuse of these communities to make people walk the plank knowing none of these people were ever going to be picked,” she declared, without evidence.
All of this was being with Scott’s speech going on in the back ground.

But the humiliation of Tim Scott is part of the game and its part of the price. Marco Rubio has been allowing himself to be humiliated by Donald Trump since he drank the tiny water bottle. Like, he’s never going to stop letting Trump humiliate him.
Allowing yourself to take the humiliation from Donald Trump is the price of being part of his army. And he enjoys hu[miliation.] I think people keep forgetting the character of the man. I mean, he enjoys humiliating these people and making them jump through hoops. I mean, Byron Donalds was no more going to be his vice president as he was going to be speaker.
And then afterwards, the Texas congressman admitted that he only placed his name in nomination because he was black and there was a black nominee – That you know Hakeem Jeffries was nominated on the other side.
It’s just, I am sad for the folks who are willing to take this kind of abuse, because it is communitywide abuse. It is an abuse of these communities to make people walk the plank knowing none of these people were ever going to be picked.
WAGNER: He also changes them in the process. I mean, Marco Rubio, according to one conservative operative I talked to, has been red-pilled and believes the things he’s now saying. This is a full 180.
