Showing Original Post only (View all)Obviously, I am not a black person but if I were I would be more than offended. [View all]
I really don't know how to explain this but I am going to try. I am getting this uncomfortable vibe of an old racist trope were these hostile white attorneys have tried to portray Mr. Wade and Ms. Willis as oversexed black people. It really is rather glaring and disturbing.
Why these attorneys have taken this approach is obvious. It isn't for the benefit of Judge McAfee. I am certain he is above this. It is for the benefit of Trump and the MAGA haters watching this.
It really is upsetting.

1000% agreed. I can't believe the judge isnt also getting more than a whiff of that.

Agree wholeheartedly. I think every one of us should spend some time walking in others shoes.

I turned off the tv. As a human being, this offends the hell out of me. As a woman, you bet it does.

But she got nothing out of it. It was 2006. And it was HIS idea to pay her during the campaign
