WTF?

[xp38]

Seinfeld reference.

[lee martell]

Usually I get Trump’s little jokes and Trollings, but I didn’t quite get this one. The Sombrero. I did know it was being done in a lightheaded manner by the President, and likely of minor significance.

[jurroppi1]

The thing is, I can’t find the damned videos being complained about. All I see is pages and pages of whining news stories (editorialized news stories, but I digress). I don’t want to log into social media to see them, just freakin’ put it on YouTube already and stop bombarding search results with hundreds of parroted stories that don’t show meaningful context so it can be memory-holed.

Hakeem Jeffries can sit back and laugh his ass off at John Oliver and Jimmy Kimmel jokes but, when the tables are turned, he is all sour grapes.

Liberalism is a mental disorder.

[jonrick46]

So funny! LOL!

[doorgunner69]

“Seinfeld reference.”

Figures I would be without a clue

[doorgunner69]

Watched that old movie for the first time a few years ago. Old Humphrey Gable/Clark was really an azzhole

Saw the Maltese Falcon and Caine Mutiny, still never got why he was such a big deal back then

Jeffries: Trump AI Sombrero Video 'Was a Xenophobic Stereotype'

Awww Hakeem's just no very bright is he? Never had a real job for any length of time has he. What are the odds that he could spell Xenophobic off the top of his pointed head?

Stereotype, no problem he learned how to spell that at his mother or fathers tit...remember he's a liberTARD and so is his family.

Conservative Podcasters and even FOX News have been playing it

[Political Junkie Too]

LOL!

I guess only a political junkie would remember when Chuck Schumer tried to smear Chief Justice John Roberts as a racist during his confirmation hearing in 2005 because he once used the word "amigos" in a memo?

Here's the video of the exchange (transcript below):

Transcript:

Senator SCHUMER.
The other thing that has troubled me is the issue of civil rights. Many of us consider racism the Nation’s poison. De Toqueville wrote about that in 1832. And we know you wrote these series of memos 20 to 25 years ago. Some of them are written in a tone that suggests you may have been insensitive to discrimination and hos tile to equal rights. And I have talked to people who might have felt just that. People have said that. So my question is not the substance, but do you regret the tone of some of these memos? Do you regret some of the inartful phrases you used in those memos or reference to ‘‘illegal amigos’’ in one memo?

Judge ROBERTS.
Well, Senator, in that particular memo, for example, it was a play on the standard practice of many politicians, including President Reagan, when he was talking to a Hispanic audience, he would throw in some language in Spanish. Again, the memos were from me to Fred Fielding. I think Mr. Fielding always found the tone—

Senator SCHUMER.
You don’t regret using that term? Could you think that some people might find it offensive?

Judge ROBERTS.
It was meant to convey the notion—again, as I’ve described—that when politicians speak to a particular audience in that language, is that offensive to the audience? It was meant to convey that. It was an issue concerning a particular radio interview.

You know, the tone was, I think, generally appropriate for a memo from me to Mr. Fielding, and I know that he never suggested that it was anything other than appropriate.

Senator SCHUMER.

I would have to disagree with you, but we will leave it at that.

A few days later in the confirmation hearing, Schumer returns to the theme:

Let me go to the con side here. First is the question of compassion and humanity. I said on the first days of these hearings it is important to determine not just the quality of your mind, but the fullness of your heart, by which I think a good number of us, at least, on both sides of the aisle really, mean the ability to truly empathize with those who are less fortunate and who often need the protections of the Government and the assistance of the law to have any chance at all. It did not seem much, for instance, to concede that the wording ‘‘illegal amigos’’ was unfortunate, yet you refused to say so. America has moved in the 21st century beyond what Senator Kennedy called ‘‘the cramped view of civil rights professed in the early Reagan administration.’’ But you would not admit now in 2005 that any of those views you argued for in the early ‘80’s were misguided, with the hindsight of history. That is troubling.

Just putting this out there for recollection...

Yo, Hakeem, your followers are too stoopit to know what that means.

Humphrey Bogart was in that group who were stuck playing variations of themselves as opposed to character actors who's personalities disappeared into their roles. Both types great in different ways. If the more flexible character actors got all the work we'd never have had Jimmy Stewart, Charlton Heston, Katherine Hepburn, Cary Grant, Ava Gardner or John Wayne.

Some of Bogart's best work was in "The Petrified Forest" (1936), "Sahara" (1943), "The African Queen" (1951) and "The Desperate Hours" (1955). That last was one of seven movies he made in the three years he knew he was dying (1957) - huge props to the man doing his best to leave a great legacy with what time he had left.

I met his widow Lauren Bacall when she was promoting her second biography (1997ish) and have to say that she was utterly stunning for a woman over 70. I wondered like so many back in their heyday: "How in the hell did he snag her?" Hope for us all.

Mexicans make up the vast majority of illegal aliens. The skit implies that Jeffries is supporting free healthcare for illegals. So what better way to depict Mexicans? Perhaps could have had Jeffries eating a taco or mowing a lawn?

[FlingWingFlyer]

I thought it was awesome. Hakeem El Burrito! It doesn’t get no better.

He likes the word 'broad'. Sexist can be added to his resumé now? Olé!
