Amber Rose outing herself as a Trump supporter was already a factor that was on nobody’s 2024 Bingo card, however what’s simply as stunning is that she has managed to grow to be arguably extra obnoxious since getting into the MAGA world than her MAGA ex, Kanye West.
Just lately, reporters for TMZ caught up with Rose at LAX, and, for no matter cause, one in all them felt the necessity to ask her a query about a difficulty that has been trending on the earth of politics as if the slut walker-turned-p****y-grabber fanatic truly is aware of issues. Rose was requested in regards to the totally debunked rumors unfold by Donald Trump and his working mate, Sen. J.D. Vance about undocumented migrants from Haiti abducting and consuming individuals’s pets in Springfield, Ohio. Predictably (though it wouldn’t have been so predictable a couple of quick months in the past), Rose defended the blatantly bigoted narrative, denied that the unfounded rumors are racist, and sprinkled in somewhat bigotry of her personal relating to “Haitian tradition.”
“That’s not racist when one thing is true and persons are saying it on-line,” Rose mentioned. “It’s a identified undeniable fact that in Haitian tradition, some individuals do eat cats.”
To start with, very like Trump and Vance, Rose doesn’t appear to grasp that “persons are saying it on-line” is just not a supply of factual info. And even when it had been true that it’s a “identified truth” that Haitians eat cats, which it’s not, that wouldn’t imply there’s any legitimacy to a rumor that Haitian migrants had been stealing cats that belonged to residents and consuming them. It could be like if Black individuals had been blamed for a rumor going round about chickens being stolen from farms and tossed into fryers as a result of Black persons are stereotyped as having a particular affinity for fried rooster. (By the way, you possibly can ask Vance all about that.)
Remeber when Rose took the stage on the Republican Nationwide Conference and mentioned it was solely because of media “lies” that Trump and his MAGA followers are referred to as racist? Maybe she knew she wanted to take that stance preemptively as a result of she knew she would finally be becoming a member of them within the racist white nationalist swamp that the MAGAts continually wade in.
The reality is that Vance and Trump focused a complete ethnic group in a selected location within the U.S. with egregiously racist and xenophobic lies which have prompted dozens of bomb threats in Springfield and brought about the Haitian group in and outdoors of Ohio to concern for his or her security. Ohio officers, together with the town planners in Springfield, the Springfield Police Division, the town’s Republican mayor and the state’s Republican governor have all mentioned there isn’t a proof and there are not any credible studies about residents having their pets stolen and eaten by Haitian migrants, and, what’s worse, they knowledgeable Vance and Trump of this earlier than the previous began spreading the rumor and the latter humiliated himself on the talk stage by repeating it.
But, Vance retains doubling down on the declare no matter how a lot demonstrable hurt it has brought about, and he justifies it by claiming he has acquired a mess of firsthand accounts from residents who had their pets stolen. In the meantime, the one resident his marketing campaign has been in a position to supply up as proof is a white lady who filed a police report claiming her cat was stolen by her Haitian neighbor just for her cat to show up in her basement a couple of days later.
Anyway, the fantastic of us on X are at the moment dragging Rose by her nonexistent edges for basically changing into a full-blown MAGA bigot. Take a look at the reactions beneath.
