Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has had his fair share of gaffes, but I would say this one is quite the chart topper.
On Wednesday, while speaking after a failed vote on Democrats' John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act in the Senate, a reporter asked McConnell if he had anything to say to minority voters who are concerned about having equal access to voting in the 2022 midterm elections.
McConnell replied, “Well, the concern is misplaced because if you look at the statistics, African American voters are voting in just as high a percentage as Americans.”

I am sure the Senator did not mean it in the way he worded it. However, his statement implies that he does not see African Americans as Americans....which is far from the truth. And if he did mean it in the way he said it....well, he needs a serious reality check.
