Far-right troll Kimberly Klacik continues to be a waste of air. |
I've said many times, that Republican Party is the party of cocaine. All white, all white!
Black Republican who doesn't even live in the district is running for the seat once held by Elijah Cummings. Now held by Rep. Kweisi Mfume (D-MD) who held the seat before Cummings. Mfume took a job with the NAACP and remained an activist until his return to Congress. He returns to the seat as an incumbent who won the special election. He will run a full term as the Representative of the 7th Congressional District.
His challenger Kimberly Klacik is a troll. She is a self-appointed concerned citizen who wants to clean up Baltimore's grimiest neighborhoods by pointing out the faults that lie on the stairs of Democrats. Her whole campaign is the typical culture war (ahem white nationalist) topics that turn over voters in predominantly Black communities.
We know our challenges but we hold the feed to the fire of federal government no matter what party is in control. It's not a Democrat or Republican problem, it's an American problem and we need leaders who see the better of us instead of cheap political talking points.
Klacik has been a "rising star" within the Republican Party despite losing mulitple times to win this seat. She is a perennial candidate who wants Blacks to "wake up" from the Democrat plantation.
Kweisi Mfume and Kimberly Klacik square off again. |
Klacik resorts to distraction. She brings up Joy Behar "parading around in blackface."
Klacik evaded a question about Trump downplaying the threat of the coronavirus as described in the Bob Woodward audio tapes. He said "I don't want to create a panic."
Mind you he's been telling you about Mexican being rapists and drug dealers bringing crime.
He also had said that the civil unrest is the fault of Democrats and their nominee Joe Biden.
This is the man and his campaign team who took a joke about "you ain't Black" and turned it into a campaign about racial coding.
He said that forest management like sweeping the leaves stops wildfires instead of mentioning climate change.
Klacik is pretty tone deaf and facing a long-shot battle to win a seat that is Solid Democratic.
"You have to put some blame on your president, I'm sorry," said Behar to Klacik, who appeared remotely on a split-screen. "You're putting it on something extraneous here. talk to the point, please."
Klacik answered quickly.
Klacik: Is this Joy speaking?
Behar: Yest.
Klacik: The same Joy that paraded around in blackface not too long ago? C'mon Joy, I don't think you should be asking questions.
Behar: That's not true. Excuse me, excuse me. The Black community had my back. They know that was not blackface. That was an homage.
Klacik: The Black community has my back.
Behar: Oh please, just answer the question.
In 2016, Behar, who is whit, said on the program that she went to a Halloween party many years earlier as "a beautiful African woman." She said then that she wore "makeup that was a little bit darker than my skin."
Sonny Hostin, who is Afro-Latina rebutted Klacik and her claims of having Black support.
"The Black community has your back? The Black community does not vote for you. What planet are you living on?"
"Wowww," said Hostin.
Klacik would then address her special election defeat.

Many say @realDonaldTrump is racist, yet his actions in the past 3 years says otherwise.https://t.co/sDJbWLtWbr pic.twitter.com/9hb4b66CQd
The ladies of @TheView didn’t like what I had to say, so naturally they cut me off.— Kimberly Klacik (@kimKBaltimore) September 18, 2020
Why are they silencing Black Women?
Hey, @JoyVBehar — I think your White Privilege is showing through your blackface! pic.twitter.com/d39hPOAPOV

"It was during a special election while we were still under [coronavirus] lockdown and I could not talk to people," said Klacik.
She addressed Hostin: "Can I speak or are you going to speak over me?"
Behar then waved to the camera and said: "Listen, Kim, good luck to you. Thank to Kim Klacik. We'll be right back."
Kimberly Klacik gets combative when Joy Behar asks her about Trump's handling of the coronavirus. |
Klacik has did what most candidates do, ignore the questions and resort to pointless distractions.
Behar isn't running for Congress. She is a talk show host. She ain't obligated to talk to 693,000 constituents in Maryland.
This is why it's important to know your candidates.
It's important to vote for the candidate who offers policies and solutions. Not pointless talking points.
Klacik is a sure loser..... End of discussion.
