2024’s deplorables moment?
-
Evidently it's only bad when it's a GOP rally.

The only reactions that matter come from the group(s) that are the subject of the jokes.
Guess we'll see how the Mexican community reacts to Lopez.
Many in the Puerto Rican community don’t seem to have appreciated Hinchcliffe's sense of humor very much.

In the case of George Lopez (comedian featured in the video @Mik links to), as Lopez is himself of Mexico descent, this qualifies as self-deprecating humor.

That’s so weak.

Same one. Used to have a TV sitcom

Not generally someone I’d want on my campaign, but he wrote a really funny column in the LA alternative newspaper for years.

Kinda makes sense. The Mexicans I knew in CA had little time for Puerto Ricans.

Well, here's the "deplorables" moment actually and it comes from Biden.
-
Saw that. It’s so very very sad that this is what it has come to. The election has devolved into a schoolyard brawl.

There are 500,000 Puerto Ricans in Pennsylvania, and they vote in pretty good percentages. Over 100,000 in other swing states. They’re not happy with the joke, and a raft of celebs, including Bad Bunny, piling on Harris endorsements is driving the point home.
As Ron said, it was on the teleprompter. And they nixed one of the guy’s jokes and left this one alone, so that says something.
-
I agree. People should wrap their minds around the true meaning of the fact this is one nation.
I'm afraid we're seeing a divide and conquer strategy or a multitude of them and they're working as intended.

The Harris campaign wrote off Arab Americans in Michigan and everywhere else. They're a significant constituency in Michigan and two other states (which two I can't recall). She loses if she loses Michigan. She talked a little word salad, false equivalency kind of carp, but no finesse in her approach, only political incompetence.
-
OTOH, Trump isn't much of an alternative for Arab Americans.
-
Link to videoWorse, they are trying to cover it up.
And people wonder why I won't vote for the Democrat this year.
A bunch of duplicitous war criminals whose domestic policy or lack thereof led to a ruinous litinany of worsening problems and suffering?
Yeah, no.

Race to the bottom.

I keep remembering 2012 when scandalous was Romney's garage elevator and his dog on top of the car. Good times.
