Minnesota Republican Senate candidate Royce White is not apologizing after proclaiming Republicans are "losers" if they try to win votes from suburban women.
White, a former NBA player known for his embrace of conspiracy theories, was recently called out by MSNBC's Ja'han Jones for proclaiming on his "Please Call Me Crazy" podcast that Republicans who seek the votes of suburban women are "delusional" people who are “living in a cucked mentality.”
"Cucked" is short for "cuckolded," a crude term commonly used by the far-right to deride people they perceive as weak and emasculated.
Taking to X on Monday, White quoted Jones' article, "Senate candidate Royce White says suburban women voters are for suckers," and doubled down on all of it.

"This headline is a prime example of yellow journalism… They think you’re stupid and yes the GOP better go to the inner cities and go after new voters to win this election," wrote White. "This isn’t rocket science! If suburban women understand inflation to be important, this isn’t even a contest. Only a cuck would say that’s demeaning, only a loser would dance around that reality. Hence, cucks and losers!"
White, who has become notorious for picking fights with critics on social media, has faced widespread mockery for posting a map of what he claimed to be crimes in Minneapolis but was just locations of public drinking fountains. He also recently reportedly blew campaign cash at a nude strip club in Florida.
White was endorsed for the nomination at the state GOP convention earlier this year and won the primary with a 9-point plurality over his closest rival Joe Fraser. He will face off against Democratic incumbent Amy Klobuchar in November.
