Shaun King reads between the lines, busts Mitch McConnell for using 'illegally submitted ballots' as 'code for Black' ballots

Mitch McConnell sent out this tweet earlier this morning:

Here’s how this must work in our great country: Every legal vote should be counted. Any illegally-submitted ballots must not. All sides must get to observe the process. And the courts are here to apply the laws & resolve disputes.

That's how Americans' votes decide the result.

Think there’s nothing especially controversial about any of that? Well, then, you’re not reading in between the lines like Shaun King here:

They are literally pretending like "illegal votes" are a real thing that impacted this election.

They are using the word "illegal" as code for "Black." https://t.co/jeFqPeImvl

He’s nothing if not consistent.

Because it's ALWAYS racism right? https://t.co/VD14DHtkdK

What does it say about Shaun that he saw “illegal” and immediately thought “black”?

What’s wrong with this guy? https://t.co/Ksg8EwdHKp
