Florida Rep. Byron Donalds, a Republican potentially considered as a running mate for Donald Trump, is under scrutiny following comments he made at an event in Philadelphia. During the event, Donalds suggested that Black families were 'together' during the Jim Crow era of racial segregation.
Donalds' remarks have sparked criticism from Democrats, including President Joe Biden's campaign and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. Jeffries called Donalds' observation 'outlandish' and 'outrageous,' emphasizing the atrocities faced by Black Americans during the Jim Crow era.
