Kool-Aid Rally Scandal

Girodes sent an email to WNBC that he planned to hand out “Kool-Aid, KFC and watermelons” to people who attended a Harlem campaign rally in the coming weeks. The racial undertones of the event was sharply criticized by the media and community alike. Girodes was previously being inquired by the news station about reports that he owed a woman $7,750 in an apartment rental dispute. [undefined]

Girodes deleted his campaign website and his campaign presence on social media.

The GOP does not support him and stated that he is not a real candidate.
