Reply to comment by defusted in Meet Joanna McClinton, PA’s first Black woman House speaker by PienotPi

I didn’t say that’s why she got elected. I said she was picked because she’s the best qualified, and that’s all that should matter.

You literally said the opposite in your OP.

>but can we stop with the identity politics?

Do you not understand what you even wrote?

Identity politics is particular groups of people adhering to a set political party.

For example Evangelical Christians adopting Republican policy as part of their identity.

Your OP essentially stated that Democrats picked her because black people are stereotyped as having Democrat identity politics.

You literally have no clue what you're even saying.

So you're just going to ignore your identity politics comment then? Because that's what that means.
