The political merry-go-round is spinning. For years, Lamar County Democratic Party chair Gary OâConnor went after former President Donald Trump for the appalling things he said and did â including his reference on where to grab women and his imitation of a disabled journalist (both of which were dismissed by loyal Republican followers). Now, OâConnor and the Lamar County Democratic Party are on the receiving end of that same condemnation for an April 30 Facebook post in which OâConnor used a racial slur toward Sen. Tim Scott, a Black Republican, to express his opposition to Scottâs rebuttal to President Joseph Bidenâs first joint address of Congress. ....
New Day show, CNN Tonight host Don Lemon showed sympathy for liberals who hate Senator Tim Scott and other black conservatives as he suggested that it would be acceptable to call them by racial epithets in private conversations.

The Lamar County Democratic Party, in defense of the lawmaker, said in a statement they would not accept O Connor s resignation. ....

5 May 2021 Texas Republican Chairman Allen West will mail a “package of Oreos” to the Texas Democrat Party after the Lamar County Democrat Party’s refusal to accept Gary O’Connor’s resignation for his use of a racist slur. “Well, some Texas Democrat County chairman from Lamar County Gary O’Connor referred to Sen. Tim Scott as an Oreo,” West stated in a tweeted video.
