The NAACP ignored gains by black Republicans in this week's midterm elections and the RNC's Raffi Williams is none too pleased.
Williams, the Deputy Press Secretary for the Republican National Committee (and the son of Fox News analyst Juan Williams), took to Twitter to publicly shame the 105-year-old organization for putting partisan politics ahead of the achievements of Republicans like Mia Love and Tim Scott.
can we take a moment to understand how the @NAACP didnt congratulate the first black person ever elected to both the House and Senate?

The Twitter-Shaming continued and needs to be read in its entirety. It proves how prescient Rush Limbaugh was two decades ago when he began referring to the NAACP as the NAA-L-CP.
