Roger Wicker is what they'd call a "good ol' boy" down in Mississippi.
Mississippi Republican Sen. Roger Wicker said the first Black woman to sit on the Supreme Court will be a "beneficiary" of affirmative action – and predicted President Biden's pick "will probably not get a single Republican vote."

Roger was perfectly OK with Trump announcing that he was only going to nominate a woman for RBG's seat, based on his comment at the time:
Senator Wicker said, 'I have five granddaughters, the oldest one is 10. I think Justice Amy Coney Barrett will prove to be an inspiration to these five granddaughters and to my grown daughters.'
But because Biden has said that he wants to nominate a black woman....that's affirmative action.
Essentially he's saying that, no matter how experienced and qualified the eventual nominee is, he and his GOP colleagues won't vote for her.
His reason is pretty clear.
In ol' Miss, Roger may be a good ol' boy.
Everywhere else...he's just a plain ol' cracker.
