Lee Garrett is a 30-year-old singer/songwriter from Nashville, one of 31 men cast to date Rachel Lindsay, the current star of ABC’s “The Bachelorette” (and the first black lead the franchise has ever featured). He admires Matthew McConaughey, has a horseshoe tattoo on his left arm, and loves “Gone with the Wind.” Oh... and he once tweeted that the only difference between the NAACP and KKK is that “one has the sense of shame to cover their racist ass faces.”A simple scan of Garrett’s Twitter feed suggests that he has some strong and predominantly negative feelings about women (”Guys... When is the last time YOU actually saw a pretty feminist?”), black-led organizations (”Thousands sign petition to recognize # blackLivesMatter as terrorist group after Dallas”), Islam (”I don’t hate Muslims, I do hate Islam”) and the LBTQ community (”After all this ‘gay community’ talk, all these rainbow flags instead of American flags”). He has also expressed a fervent support for President Trump. Below is a sampling of tweets from Garrett’s feed, none of which have been deleted as of Wednesday morning:
