VIDEO: Did NC Governor Roy Cooper Withdraw Due to WEIRD Name Pronunciation?

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has a new buzzword toy that he loves to play with because he thinks it could get him a spot on the Democrat presidential ticket as the running mate of Kamala Harris. And that magic buzzword is "WEIRD." He is trying to stamp that word on President Trump and running mate JD Vance. However, Walz does not have to look far because his own party is chock full of ...WEIRD. One new example of weird is North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper's silly fascination about the way his name is pronounced. This could be one reason why he just dropped out of contention for VP candidate making it easier for the very very WEIRD Tim Walz to get that slot by constant repetition of the W-word.

"WEIRD." The Democrats and the media are treating that word hyped by Tim Walz as if is the magic elixir that will stop Orange Man Bad. Yup. Just one word will do the trick... at least in their fervid imaginations.

Te much more plausible reason that I read was that when Governor Cooper is not in the State of North Carolina, the Republican Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson becomes the acting Governor by law.

The Secret Service hearings may scare off a few folks from wanting to run as VP.

There is zero chance the SS can clean up that dumpster fire in the next few months.

It’s KOOO-PER... there is no “Southern” really for that name.

Unless you want to put a “-uh” at the end instead of an -er.

As in KOO-puh. That’s it. Everything coming from this idjit is weird, and he should never have been governor were it not for an idiot Repub candidate that did not support Trump’s win... and lost in a state that went for Trump to a clown like cooper, and now his AG the Marxist Shapiro.

And Shapiro as AG cain’t have none o- dat!!

Hilarious. The Leftist dems are everywhere, and legislation in NC is all conservatives. Cooper tried to put an absolute clown ON the NC supreme court. And failed.

“It’s KOOO-PER... there is no “Southern” really for that name.”

##################

As a North Carolinian, yeah, there kinda sorta is.

Some here would pronounce his name that approaches “Queue-per”. Not all the way there, but noticeably different from COO-per.

And I don’t even know what our soon-to-be-not Governorprefers.

Exactly. He was forced to do this by Democrat operatives.

Maybe Down East coastal types— what, “ohkrahcohke”

Q-per... maybe they say it like that. mtn NC and VA do not- and definitely not Piedmont. Get around all of those places, and being Southern would listen and hear that.

So, maybe that small demographic would say it that way. Cooper is from Nashville, NC (not down east, and definitely in the middle of tobacco road. his daddy a demonrat machine operative of Jim Hunt’s- another one of those). Oh well— there’s a lot Jesse Helms fans still in NC and they do not like cooooper Qper. Such crooks operating out of the Liquor Boards and Big Tobacco. Or as a friend/wag yaks, saying “there is Methodism to their madness, and the Trinity of the Dukes”.

Learned a new accent today.

It’s like people who pronounce “roof” as “rough”. It’s probably a regional/class dialect thing

The Hollywood gossip site, Crazy Days and Nights, is insinuating that there is some dirt on Cooper that came up during vetting. He really seems too boring to have much going on.

With the exception of FR threads, I never open anything with “weird” in the title.

The one that confuses me is the name “Koch”, where some folks pronounce it “Cook”, and others “Cotch”. WaddaIno?

He comes from the Sade school of name pronunciation
