Byron Donalds under fire for Jim Crow comparison & Israel x Palestine Conflict - The Grift Report
At a Trump campaign event, Rep.
Byron Donalds claimed that Black families were more unified during the Jim Crow era, attributing post-1960s challenges to Democratic policies.
His comments, suggesting Black people were better off before civil rights advancements, drew sharp criticism from leaders like Rep.
Hakeem Jeffries and prompted demands for an apology for misrepresenting a painful period in American history.
Donalds defended his remarks, clarifying that he was referencing family structures, not endorsing Jim Crow.
