CBS co-host Vladimir Duthiers noted that many found the comment 'incredibly offensive'
First Lady Jill Biden took heat Monday for a short-sighted comment comparing Hispanics to "breakfast tacos" during the UnidosUS Annual Conference in San Antonio, Texas, but one CBS host was sympathetic to the gaffe.
"Raul helped build this organization with the understanding that the diversity of this community, as distinct as the bodegas of the Bronx, as beautiful as the blossoms of Miami and as unique as the breakfast tacos here in San Antonio, is your strength," she said Monday, praising UnidosUS President Raul Yzaguirre for his work.
"CBS Mornings" host Gayle King reassured viewers the remarks were not reflective of the First Lady during Tuesday's broadcast, saying, "When you know Jill Biden, that's not who she is."
King added that Biden's message "didn't come out correctly," while coming to her defense during the segment. King, who has donated to Democrats, has vacationed with the Obama family and is also close friends with billionaire Oprah Winfrey and Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J.

Whatever Brandon has, it looks like Mrs. Dr. Brandon has caught it too.
Dumbassx appears to be the diagnosis.
Now ima go get some tacx for lunch.
what... not stooopid???
To be fair to the wife of the fool in the oval office, she didn’t compare Hispanics to breakfast tacos. Words have meaning. Sentences have syntax. She said Hispanics are “unique.” the “AS” gives an example of something that is unique. It’s called a simile.
It’s unfortunate that the public hears “Hispanic” and “tacos” in the same sentence and thinks that means “Hispanics are tacos.”
However, since Republicans are roasted on the spit for similar statements, she deserves criticism and should apologize.
That’s DOCTOR Biden to you, Gayle.
No, to avoid that, she arrogantly strode forth into the klieg lights to show her superficiality.
See say pwodway.
Exactly!!!!!
Humility to her and her idiot husband is meant for the way little folks act toward them, the elite...
Hey, Gayle? You leftists troglodytes are the ones who are obsessed with race and wet your pants every time you hear something that could even slightly be considered a slur. You’re the ones whose eyes bug out as you start screeching and stomping if someone says something that you consider “offensive.”
So, suck it up, Gayle. You want to make stupid little rules like that, then you and Jill will abide by them too.
But if Trump had said it ... CBS and all the rest would be calling him racist and demanding impeachment. Go figure.
Dumb, racist, treasonous, Stalinazi whore ? That’s who she is.
Really, when you know Jill, she does not really care about tacos or whatever.
She just wants your vote.
You are not Latinix, if you do not vote for Joe!
Actually it was Slo Joe who said The hispanics are all different, unlike the black community. I guess to Biden all blacks are the same.
And we know you. We know ‘Dr’ Jill is just a dr in education. lol
Imagine an alternate reality, in which Melania Trump gave a speech to a black organization in Jackson, Mississippi and said, “the diversity of this community ... as unique as the fried chicken (or chitlins, or ham hocks, or watermelon) here in Jackson, is your strength.”
Now imagine how the media would have reacted.
Best one!
Well if you don’t vote for him, you’re not black enough.
I would be insulted by that remark.
This Texas Hispanic loathes condescending bigots like Jill Biden, who also has a terminal case of dumbass...
Seriously, the passage of time and your going to walk on the moon!
Did she or someone in that bunch actually say that? She even reminds me of that queen of mean Leona Helmsley in her attitude toward us “little people-what a bitch...
