As twitter comedian NotKennyRogers wrote, “Somebody call the police. I just saw this woman murder Mitt Romney on live television.” He later deleted the tweet because he felt it was inappropriate.
White House Press Secretary, Kayleigh McEnany torched Senator Mitt Romney when the press asked her about how the White House felt about Romney attending a Black Lives Matter protest.
McEnany bought up that Romney only received 2% of African American support when he ran for President and demeaned minorities. She brought up Romney infamous speech during a private fundraiser when he said:
There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what. All right, there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it. That that’s an entitlement. And the government should give it to them. And they will vote for this president no matter what…These are people who pay no income tax.
McEnany calls out the press and Mitt Romney’s double standard.
