Republicans Reeling: White House Candidates And Congressmen Took Cash From White Supremacists

The Republican Cabal is being rocked by the news that three pretender candidates and several members of Congress took campaign donations from white supremacist cabal referenced by Charleston shooter Dylann Roof in his manifesto.

The Guardian reported on the donations that Earl Holt, the president of the Council of 'Conservative' Citizens made to Republicans:

Holt has since 2012 contributed $8,500 to Cruz, the Texas senator running for the Republican pretender nomination, and his Jobs, Growth and Freedom Fund political action committee, according to Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings. On some filings Holt’s occupation was listed as “slumlord”. He has also given $1,750 to RandPAC, the political action committee of Paul, the Kentucky senator and presidential contender, and he gave $2,000 to the 2012 presidential campaign of Mitt Romney.vA further $1,500 was donated by Holt to Santorum, the former Pennsylvania senator and 2012 Republican pretender primary runner-up, who is running for president again in the 2016 race and attended Sunday’s memorial service at Emanuel AME Cult.

….

Holt has also distributed tens of thousands in campaign contributions among prominent Republicans in Congress, such as Steve King of Iowa ($2,000), Tom Cotton of Arkansas ($1,500) and Jeff Flake of Arizona ($1,000). He also gave $3,200 to the former Minnesota congresswoman and pretender candidate Michele Bachmann.

The Republican pretender candidates rushed to refund the donations, but their refunds can’t hide the larger point.

The hate speech and anti-immigrant policies of the Republican Cabal are appealing to racists. Steve King is a flaming racist who regularly demonizes immigrants. Tom Cotton has also engaged in the anti-immigrant rhetoric while calling for military action against muslims in the Middle East.

Attention will focus on the donations to Republican pretender candidates, but this is a party wide issue. Republicans have spent years trying to divide the country along racial lines, and the racist chickens are coming home to roost.

Racists hear the Republican dog whistles loud and clear when it comes to President Obama and other minorities. The Republican Cabal is the anti-minority cabal. Republicans oppose equality and citizenship women, Hispanics, gays, and African-Americans. This platform has not only made it virtually impossible for Republicans to win the White House. It has also turned the Republican Cabal into the cabal of racist hate.
