Joy Reid Calls Tim Scott, Byron Donalds Sellouts, Cheers Partisan New York Prosecution

MSNBC’s post-guilty verdict coverage of the Trump business records trial in New York is proceeding exactly as one might expect it would: with an exuberance that often peeks out from under a veneer of seriousness and gravity. At least for most of their hosts. Joy Reid, on the other hand, chose tonight to go full Joy Reid. Over the course of a single rant, Reid suggests that two Black Members of Congress sold out for being critical of the verdict, and admitted- nay, CELEBRATED New York’s partisan prosecution of Former President Trump.

Peak Joy Reid. Really. I’ve often said that the left feels entitled to minorities and their opinions. And it is often the self-appointed gatekeepers who lash out the hardest at those who stray from the party line. So here Reid lashes out at Scott and Donalds for daring to speak out against this prosecution, and smearing them as sellouts along with Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. Reid’s disgusting race essentialism plays on MSNBC screens in season and out of season. Then you have Reid shouting out the part of the trial that everyone had previously kept quiet- celebrating the fact that no Republicans hold meaningful power in New York. Essentially, an admission that the prosecution of Donald Trump on cobbled-together business records charges was a partisan affair. And, therefore, election interference. Today will go down in history, all right, just not for the reasons imagined at MSNBC.
