First Lady Jill Biden journeyed to California in a visit to a pop-up vaccination site for farmworkers.
Video of her effort to speak Spanish during the stop in Delano attracted almost as much attention as the flag that provided the backdrop. It came on the birthday of César Chávez, a left-wing labor leader, and she was joined by California Gov. Gavin Newsom.
“It’s ‘Si se puede’ (Yes you/we can) not ‘Si se pwadueh,’” RGA Deputy Communications Director Joanna Rodriguez tweeted. “I can’t even imagine what word she was trying to say. Seriously why even try pandering if you’re going to butcher it and not practice before?!”
“Si se what???? I’m sure some one will surely tell Jill Biden ‘puadray’ is NOT a word in the Spanish dictionary,” Journalist Dania Alexandrino, a native Spanish speaker, tweeted. “For those who are celebrating her effort, yeah NO! Very far from ‘Si se Puede’ which means ‘Yes (we) can.’ We in parenthesis because it can also be yes you can!”
The Fresno Bee also pointed to what it called the “gaffe.”
César Chávez co-founded the United Farm Workers of America ) union and was a staunch opponent of illegal immigration, as Breitbart News has previously reported.
Hours before Jill Biden spoke Joe Biden was doing his best to contribute to the political makeover of the anti-migration, pro-American, labor-rights hero.
Biden pushed the left-wing makeover in a March 31 statement, saying: “I was proud to place a bust of César Chávez in the Oval Office, so that no one who enters that historic room may forget the powerful truths his farm worker hands imparted.”

Watching Jill Biden botch basic Spanish makes me miss Melania Trump, an extraordinary First Lady who is fluent in five languages.
Well, she studied so hard to be a doctor and all...
This article is about as botched as what they accuse “Dr” Jill of. Si se puede is good Spanish. What did she say, See say puahduh? That would be a gaffe.
The excerpt posted here makes scant mention of the "questionable" flag highlighted in the title.
Can someone here enlighten me? Was it a Nazi flag, or what?
Regards,
I concur. the headline is pathetically inept, and it just gets worse from there
Jill Biden is “that other woman” as compared to the multi-lingual Melania Trump.
It’s like comparing Foster Brooks versus Ronald Reagan as speakers.
The questionable flag was not Nazi. It was more reminiscent of the “Blue Eagle” symbol of the National Recovery Act of 1933.
If you are not fluent in a language, don’t speak it trying to identify with or impress people. It does not work.
See say pudding Jao
Si se pedo...
Idiots
César Chávez was a great man who fought for American workers rights
He had his issues.

Yes we can.... steal the election... and did. See, say payday for Jill.
Will adulteress Dr Evil just slither away .
Cold calculating CCP monster using a senile old fool for power and money .
My point was that something mentioned in the headline should be adequately explained - preferably in the first paragraph.
Regards,
“My hovercraft is full of eels” - Jill Biden

Heh, heh:)
