I was informed today that we needed to hire ANOTHER staffer to apologize for my gaffes and write Tweets that start with “What Joe meant to say….”
It is just nearly impossible to keep my statements to only those that can be pre-recorded, unfortunately. So, when I leave the basement, it’s a crapshoot.
Yesterday I got in trouble for saying this:
“What you all know, but most people don’t know, unlike the African American community, with notable exceptions, the Latino community is an incredibly diverse community with incredibly different attitudes about different things.”
Well, I didn’t think it would make such a big hubbub. I believe African-American people are pretty much a monolithic voting block for me and the Democrats. I know it seems unbelievable after the way the Dem leaders seem to only care about them every four years… Pretty much every election cycle. Sure, there are a few that leave the Democratic plantation, but those are very notable exceptions, as I said. Like 5. Candace Owens, Leo Terrell, Thomas Sowell, Larry Elder … well, maybe there is only four. Oh, there is that Scott fellow from South Carolina. Ok, yeah, 5 then. But, they aren’t really black. Or they would be voting for me.
So I said it out loud, who cares? I don’t think black people have a diversity of thought. I’m not a racist, though. I have one black friend – Barack. I would like to say Michelle is my friend, too, but I am pretty sure she hates me. But I’ll soon have a black VP so maybe my VP will be my friend.
I mean I could see a big hubbub if I said something like, “you tortillas are here to listen to me pander to you.” You know, the truth. The truth will set you free. Or get you in trouble. And that’s why my team is hiring another tweeter to be on the ready. “What Joe really meant is…you know soul of America and blah blah..”
The best news is the media still all in for me because they were quick to say that what I said never happened. Team Joe all the way.
Come on, man.
