If the media says “obviously” it really means you must completely disregard reality.

as does the writer who quotes Brandon saying the very thing the writer denies he said.

To be fair, I remember all the times the media covered for Trump when someone misconstrued something he said. /s (if it’s actually needed)

So, he wasn’t a great Negro?

He did.

He’s senile and can’t say what he wants to or should say.

Hence what should be “the great Negro League pitcher...” becomes “the great negro pitcher”.

He said it.

These liars in the Ministry of Truth try to say that not meaning to have said it means he didn’t say it.

Joe is being so niggardly with his so few compliments.

Fair enough. So rather than calling Satch’ “Negro”, ol’ Joe is so fumble-brained and marble-mouthed he couldn’t articulate properly and he garbled up the phrasing.

Amazing how he could be so insensitive as to accidentally disrespect the current approved nomenclature rules. That itself is an entirely damnable offense is it not?

I think the dummy was supposed to say the great negro league pitcher, Satchel Paige, or negro league pitcher, the great Satchel Paige. Below is what he said so technically he did refer to Paige as a negro. Therefore 4 Pinocchios for Mediaite.

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-satchel-paige-great-negro-gaffe

"I’ve adopted the attitude of the great negro at the time, pitcher of the Negro leagues, who went on to become a great pitcher in the pros — in Major League Baseball — after Jackie Robinson. His name was Satchel Paige," Biden recalled.

Please start splicing this and repeating it. They feel the need to write this then they’re nervous. Own this and make it trend.

Yes, Biden did say “negro,” even though the writer - using his ESP - knew what Biden meant to say. And Biden DID say this about Obama: “[Obama is] the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy.”

According to Dave Chappelle:

Getting the J&J Covid vaccine was the most “NIGGERLY” thing he’d done in a while.

There's nothing wrong with the word negro.

What's wrong is the double standard that exists that says if someone who's not a member of the cultural elite says "negro", then that person must be completely and utterly ruined.

The president obviously began to say “Great Negro League pitcher,” but then paused and shifted to saying “at the time, pitcher in the Negro Leagues,”


It might have been what you think he meant to say, but your own quote shows what he actually did say. Doesn’t it bother you, even a little bit, that the President routinely seems to have trouble articulating coherent sentences?

I have no problem with his using the word ‘negro’, which just means black in Spanish/Portuguese and used to be considered the polite way to refer who we are now supposed to call black or African Americans.

But if President Donald J. Trump had made such a statement, Nancy P would be ginning up another article of impeachment.

No, Joe Biden Did Not Refer to Satchel Paige as a ‘Negro’ During Veterans Day Speech

But....

I've adopted the attitude of the great Negro, at the time, pitcher in the Negro Leagues, went on to become a great pitcher in the pros and Major League Baseball after Jackie Robinson.

If he was not referring to Satchel Paige then WHO was he talking about?

“If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t a negro.”

Kelli Stavast and I have listened to the clip several times.

“Obviously” he said, “Let’s Go, Brandon”.

Satchel Paige is one of the greatest athletes in American history.

Joe Biden isn’t worthy to polish his cleats.

Too fricking late, dear leftist a-hole purveyors of lies (like PDJT telling people to “inject themselves with Clorox”, and thousands of similar falsehoods).
