MSNBC host Tiffany Cross is slammed for saying her trucker brother is at risk because the industry is full of white men who voted for Trump

An MSNBC host was slammed on Twitter on Sunday after she expressed concern about her brother in the trucking industry, because it ‘feels dangerous.’

Tiffany Cross, the host of Cross Connection, revealed that her brother is a truck driver, and whenever he hits the roads, she worries for his safety because it ‘feels like a dangerous industry.’

She pointed to Bureau of Labor Statistics showing that nearly 77 percent of truck drivers are white, whereas 16.8 percent identify as either black or African American.

Only 12.4 percent of the workforce were women.

Cross, who is black, said in her segment on Sunday that she spoke to some minority truck drivers, who said they experienced racism on the job, and said that many truck drivers are aggressive – something she insinuated would not happen if more ‘people of color’ were in the industry.

But in the aftermath, some people on Twitter called Cross racist for stereotyping white truck drivers, and criticizing the industry.

  1. All the left has is their racism fantasy. They will keep whipping that dead horse forever. Without their racism narrative to get voters all riled up they have nothing.

  2. African Americans are OVER REPRESENTED in trucking.
    African Americans are only 13% of the US population, yet make up almost 17% of truckers.

  3. Tiffany Tiffany Tiffany we cant help that you and your brother were born BLACK but we are glad you are RACIST how about your brother
