Surprised he didn’t say “and surprisingly, he was clean and articulate, too- although I still wouldn’t want my children to be in the same school/jungle goes as their kind”

Reporter asked col.ege kids “which candidate said these racist things?” (Then named off a few racist quotes)

The kids all got disgusted looks on their faces, got visibly angry, and all said “Trump”

Reporter said “woild it surprise you to learn it was biden?”

Kids looked puzzled for a minute, then their faces relaxed, a d they said “well that’s just Joe being joe”, and they defended him, while continuing to malign ‘racist’ Trump (they viewed him as racist for shutting down the border, and for telling the truth that there are criminals, violent criminals that come across our open borders).

C’mon Joe, go full n word, you know you want to!

If Biden used the "N" word the press would give him a pass... Press toadies gave Northam a pass for blackface - and Sen Bryd a 40 year long pass for being a KKK recruiter...and democrat leader of the Senate.

Well, give him this: he as three basic speaking tones “very earnest,” “creepy whisper,” “hollering old dude.” He delivered his remarks using the first, which was the correct choice for the occasion

Okay, can we call him the last of the Jim Crow era Democrats?

Well, Negro League is correct, but referring to him as a Negro is looking for trouble, unless that eventually becomes an acceptable term again. H.L. Mencken wrote an essay a hundred years ago, something like “What Do We Call the Black Man?”. All of the changes in the preferred term that we have been familiar with in the last sixty years had already been gone through at least once in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. “Negro” might make a comeback.

I didn’t until now get his point of telling this story, but I guess it is you can still accomplish things when you are old, and you are only as old as you feel. Biden claims to feel fifty. Uh-huh.

Sorry, but that word is cancelled for white folks- doesn t matter if there was actually a negro league or not, the word is off limits to whitey according to the wokesters, just like the word retarded is off limits, or other words the left deem offensive are off limits regardless of their historical accuracy or significance. The left have erased history when it suits them.

If TrumP had said that, the left woild be calling for an impeachment.

Unfortunately, Satchel was not a great pitcher in MLB, although he was still very good. When MLB finally desegregated he was already aging out of baseball. But, back in the day . . . There weren't speed guns in those days but Satchel must have routinely pitched over 100 mph.

Bite-me should have said a great Negro Leagues pitcher, but he's just too befuddled to get things like that right.

Biden has always been a racist. He is a white racist and obama is a black racist (born in Kenya). Racist love the democrat party.

Satchel Paige + Neal Kinnock = Brandon. It’s the new math.

So I guess Facebook and YouTube will have to begin banning Biden speeches now?

R: Joe Biden referred to legendary baseball pitcher Satchel Paige during his Veterans’ Day speech on Thursday referring to him as “the great negro.”

Personally, I see nothing wrong with that.

“NEGRO” is simply black in Spanish and Portuguese. In the Philippines, there are two provinces that are still named : NEGROS ORIENTAL and NEGROS OCCIDENTAL. Nobody is demanding that the names be changed.

It’s society that has allowed the woke, ultra sensitive, take-offense-at-everything crowd to hijack a legitimate word.
