During an interview on MSNBC GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz claimed it was sickening how Democrats are attacking him and other Republicans for being “white men.”

“What does the fact that we are white men have to do with our desire to represent the millions of constituents we serve. I was deeply offended,” Gaetz said.

“When Jackie Speier walks in I don’t say a white woman comes in,” he added.

Gaetz then explained “This is the type of Identity Politics from the left that seems to permeate any substantive or procedural arguments they make and it’s sickening to me that’s how we would be thought of.”

Watch as Matt Gaetz claims it’s sickening how Democrats are attacking us for being white men:

Gaetz is absolutely correct.

Democrats and their media allies have practically made a sport out of vilifying white people.

They claim the GOP is racist and intolerant but the truth is Democrats need to take a hard look in the mirror.

Martin Luther King said he dreamed of a time when men would be judged by their character and not their race. Democrats have flipped that dream upside down.

If they keep this kind of thing up much longer President Trump is going to win by a landslide.

Partial transcript:

GAETZ: “Did she say we were a bunch of white men? What does the fact that we are white men have to do with our desire to represent the millions of constituents we serve.

I was deeply offended.

When Jackie Speier walks in I don’t say a white woman comes in.

This is the type of Identity Politics from the left that seems to permeate any substantive or procedural arguments they make and it’s sickening to me that’s how we would be thought of.

People we serve are diverse and it’s just really kind of sickening.
