At MSNBC, if you’re a racist, that apparently means you’re a Republican.

Host Kasie Hunt teased an upcoming segment at the left-wing network Wednesday on the furor over Joe Biden saying he used to be able to work with senators who were segregationists and lamenting the partisanship of today.

He named Sens. James Eastland of Mississippi and Herman Talmadge of Georgia.

“Still to come, Joe Biden references his relationships with two former Republican colleagues at an event in New York City. The only problem? They were both segregationists,” she said.

There was another problem — albeit a problem with Ms. Hunt.
