Joe Biden gaffe and verbal bungles watch

[89Hen]

But do you think he’s wrong or being dishonest?

Yes, you racist.

[Ibanez]

But do you think he’s wrong or being dishonest?

Both. Joe is playing to the “plantation mentality” approach that the Democrats take to blacks and other minorities.

If he keeps this crap up he'll need Stacy Abrams.....

But do you think he’s wrong or being dishonest?

Just an observation here: Conservatives (and your left-leaners who are not Social Justice Warriors) generally see not being racist as not judging individuals as being part of monoliths.

Liberals (specifically the woke type) think anti-racism means retweeting as many "journalists of color" as possible and getting a selfie with the black restaurant owner that makes the great kale soup. They think people delude themselves into being racist because they have a black friend when in fact (IMO) they're the ones that have deluded themselves into think they're making things right and have some paternalistic contempt for minorities. And it's that contempt that apparently slipped by Biden's verbal filter, here.

So you think Trump’s policies and leadership serve blacks better?

He is wrong. A person's "blackness" or "whiteness" isn't and shouldn't be defined by political affiliation. It's almost like a purity test.

Prior to Covid black unemployment and poverty rates were at record lows. More funding for HBCUs. Criminal justice reform with 90% of those benefiting from reduced sentences being black. He's also for school choice which is good for minority families so their kids aren't stuck in inner city schools.

Don’t disagree on that principle but that’s not the point. The point is Biden thinks he’s a better leader for blacks which I think he can make a strong point for. Saying so doesn’t necessarily equate to racial division.

Except "I'm a better choice for blacks" isn't what he said.

That's not what he said, not even close.

What he literally said was if you're black and vote for Trump, you're not really black.

I can only imagine the vapor lock in the WH press room if Trump said anything like that.

^^^^ Here you go, folks

This is exactly what Trumpsters do for Trump

Parse out really stupid tripe that comes out of his mouth and tell us what he really meant

And here’s the equivalent anti-Trumpy response in photonegative:

Y’all house negroes better keep your black asses on the plantation

Except I’m not a Bidenster and Trump doesn’t even pretend to be complimentary but yeah....both sides do it. I’ll stand corrected on what he actually said but good god this is all getting tedious.

Racism can get tedious when you defend it.

But unlike you (and Mrs. kalm) I can admit when I’m wrong.

I love how badly says "Thats not what he said"
and then goes on to also quote something he did NOT say - and use the word "literally" while making a figurative statement

Poor Clitz.

1. I did not quote anything or anyone (See emphasis above).
2. You don't know what the definition of literally is (it has many meanings).

Definition of literally
1 : in a literal sense or manner: such as
a: in a way that uses the ordinary or primary meaning of a term or expression
He took the remark literally.
a word that can be used both literally and figuratively
b: used to emphasize the truth and accuracy of a statement or description.
The party was attended by literally hundreds of people.
c: with exact equivalence : with the meaning of each individual word given exactly
The term "Mardi Gras" literally means "Fat Tuesday" in French.
d: in a completely accurate way a story that is basically true even if not literally true

In describing Joe Biden's racist remark, I used "literally" in the context of definition 1b (above).

His economy does.

Good thing for Joe Democrats get free passes on statements like this.

So much for the "Joe has the black vote locked up". Nothing better than a 77 year old white man telling blacks that they aren't black enough if they don't vote for him.

It was a gaffe, no doubt, But he's got the Black vote locked up. The only questions involve whether it'll be a little above 90% or a little below 90% and whether Blacks will have high turnout relative to historical turnout.

I think he needs to pick Stacey Abrams as his Vice Presidential candidate. If he does that he'll get above 90% of the Black vote and Blacks will turn out. She'll also absolutely pound Mike Pence in the Vice Presidential debate. But that's just a bonus.
