Yesterday, Georgia Republican gubernatorial candidate David Perdue accused the unopposed Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams of "demeaning her own race" when she criticized living conditions in Georgia.
WTF did her comment have to do with her race? It sounds a lot like the old trope I used to hear White people use back in the 60s and 70s to describe an occasional Black person they found acceptable by saying they were "a credit to their race".
I'm not saying that all Republicans are racist, but racism is still alive in the Republican Party, especially in the old slave states.
