Far-Right Turns on Matt Gaetz For Encouraging Racial Diversity in MAGA Movement: ‘Extremely Embarrassing’
H ardline Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) raised the ire of some of his fellow far-right travelers this week after suggesting that “Julio” and “Jamal” were ready to replace “Karens” as the base of the Republican Party.
“This is the blue-collar realignment of the Republican Party and what I can tell you is for every Karen we lose, there’s a Julio and a Jamal ready to sign up for the MAGA movement, and that bodes well for our ability to be more diverse and to be more durable as we head into not only the rest of the primary contest, but also the general election,” Gaetz said on Newsmax Wednesday.
Gaetz made the comment when asked to respond to Donald Trump’s bombastic statements following his latest court appearance in the E. Jean Carroll trial, in which he has been found liable for sexually abusing the former columnist.
Gaetz boasting that MAGA could become “more diverse” and court both Hispanic and Black voters sparked a fierce backlash from the far-right. The Daily Wire’s self-declared theocratic fascist, Matt Walsh , told his 2.6 million followers on X, “This is totally indistinguishable from far left DEI racial politics. Extremely embarrassing for Matt Gaetz.
Walsh added, “What a brilliant political strategy. Let’s explicitly insult and alienate the majority of our voting base for the sake of a demographic that is guaranteed to vote for the other party in huge majorities literally no matter what we say or do. That’s some more GOP political genius!”

OMG don't let those ''others'' in the party. We need purity and those others aren't pure...
Its been a bad couple weeks for the Republicans on race issues, and we're still in January.
Open mouth put both feet in, the new motto of the right.
Why would letting non whites into MAGA alienate the majority of MAGA ? Hmmm.
Well, now that question allows me as a minority to answer it from personal experience.
1. They are ''others'' or those people''
2. They are uneducated and need AA to get into a college
3. They live off that ''free stuff'' that our taxes pay for
4. They are lemmings that live on plantations and reservations
5. They are thugs
6. They are drug dealers and deal in sex trafficking (per the rep from Oklahoma)
7. Merciless Indian Savage (from the Declaration of Independence)
8. They are lazy
9. They are thieves
10. You can't trust them.
That is good for a starter.
Republicans: “Stop calling us racist! We are not just the party of white people.”
Also Republicans: “Why would you want to appeal to people of color and thereby alienate the good white people of our party?”
We have Martins as members but they are white Martins.
They had a moment of insanity.
That sums it up nicely
Julio? (The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse) Jamal? (Finding Forrester)
How about Mohammed and Moishe? Or maybe even Ching and Leilani?
They Republicans have certainly identified themselves for what they are all their BS on NT aside.
I guess they don't have enough money for a big tent
It's only a matter of time until the political rhetoric shifts toward illegal immigration hurting blue collar Hispanics. Now that Democrats are under fire from their own blue island base the rhetoric must shift faster. Anyone notice that Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jefferies are requiring that any deal on illegal immigration be bipartisan? That's to cover Democrats' backsides from their own base. Not long ago any sort of Democrat compromise with Republicans on immigration was unthinkable.
Let's see how Biden responds to charges that he is deliberately hurting Hispanic-American workers.
