Democratic congressman uses ancient racial slur during hearing

Democratic congressman uses ancient racial slur during hearing Maryland Representative and the current frontrunner for the state Senate seat David Trone, bizarrely dropped a disparaging term for Black people while speaking during a tax policy hearing. “So this Republican ‘jigaboo’ that — it’s the tax rate that’s stopping business investment, it’s just completely faulty by people who have never run a business,“ he said. “They’ve never been there. They don’t have a clue what they’re talking about.“ When reached for comment, Trone, 68, said he misspoke while meaning to use the word “bugaboo.” Source: RT News
