Opinion: Biden says if you’re black and don’t vote for him, you’re not black. He’s right

When the popular black radio host Charlamagne tha God told Joe Biden at the end of a spirited but friendly interview that he needed to come back on his show because “We got more questions,” Biden shot back:

“You got more questions. If you have a problem figuring out if you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black.”

Good one, Joe.

As ridiculous as it was to say that to a black radio and TV personality who, among other things, wrote a book he calls a “self-help guide for the hood,” here’s the thing: Biden was right. He just didn’t have the right to say it.

iSteve commenter jon adds:

“… was right. He just didn’t have the right to say it.”

This should be your epitaph, Steve.
