I get what you’re saying, and I can’t speak to his intent, but these white politicians certainly have a skewed perception of black people, consciously or unconsciously. They love to bring up talking points to score cool points with black people but instead they just reveal their skewed perceptions.
Clinton with hot sauce in her purse.
Biden with you ain’t black if you vote for Trump.
And now this I’m dumb so I can relate.
Taking it further, it also shows they don’t have black people in their immediate, trusted circle who could tell them where the lines are.
The only one that did it right was Clinton with the sax on Arsenio. Jazz and the sax aren’t stereotypical to black people, but it was cool to black people.
