Byron Donalds (R-FL) debunked allegations that the Republican Party is exploiting him, by redirecting this notion towards his critics. MSNBC&#8217;s Joy-Ann Reid \u200cfired \u200cat Donalds\u2062 for his appearance at a Trump rally, labeling \u2064him as a token black \u200crepresentative in the GOP. This, according to Reid was a non-credible attempt, akin to their promise of electing a black Speaker of the House. Responding on Fox News\u2063 Sunday, Donalds dismissed Reid&#8217;s allegations as &#8216;crabs in a barrel&#8217;, noting his divergent viewpoints should\u200d not invite such criticism.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<div data-td-block-uid=\"tdi_78\">\n<p>Rep. <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/byron-donalds\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>Byron Donalds<\/a> (R-FL) mocked the idea that the <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/gop\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>Republican Party<\/a> is using him by turning the idea around on his critics.<\/p>\n<p>MSNBC anchor <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/joy-reid\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>Joy-Ann Reid<\/a> recently attacked the Florida representative for attending Donald Trump\u2019s rally in the Bronx.
