Biden makes BIZARRE pandering speech to Puerto Ricans — and even 'breakfast tacos' Jill is embarrassed for him
October 04, 2022
'Jill didn't school her face for a second when he said that'
During his visit to storm-ravaged Puerto Rico, President Joe Biden awkwardly attempted to connect with his audience by making the bizarre claim that he "was sort of raised in the Puerto Rican community, at home, politically," which had something to do with Delaware's supposed "very large" Puerto Rican population back in the 1950s and '60s.
"Let me start off by saying that Jill and I ... we're anxious to be here. You know, I come from a little state, the little state of Delaware. It's not like the congresswoman from New York. She's from a big state," Biden told the enthralled audience.
"But we have a very — in relative terms — large Puerto Rican population in Delaware, relative to our population. We have the eighth-largest black population in the country. And between all minorities, we have 20% of our state is minority. And so, I was sort of raised in the Puerto Rican community at home, politically," he claimed.
According to the 1970 U.S. Census, Delaware's Puerto Rican community actually accounted for less than .4% of the state's total population back when our now 79-year-old commander in chief was being "raised."
People on social media were quick to react to the president's latest pandering attempt:
\u201cWhen @JoeBiden claimed he was raised in the Puerto Rican community, I couldn't stop thinking of @SteveMartinToGo in the classic comedy The Jerk. "I was born a poor black child....."\u201d— Stefan Mychajliw (@Stefan Mychajliw) 1664849243
\u201c@greg_price11 @RyanAFournier He first met Corn Pop in Puerto Rico. By the pool where he was a lifeguard.\u201d— Greg Price (@Greg Price) 1664824806
\u201c@greg_price11 Does he not think he gets recorded? Or does he even care any longer? He will literally say anything to pander.\u201d— Greg Price (@Greg Price) 1664824806
\u201c@DavidGiglioCA @greg_price11 Jill didn't school her face for a second when he said that\ud83e\udd23\u201d— Greg Price (@Greg Price) 1664824806
\u201c@ClaireFosterPHD @greg_price11 As a kid in Midwest I also felt like I was sort of raised in a Puerto Rican community. Nobody was from Puerto Rico in our community but everyone thought that it would be great to vacation in Puerto Rico, especially in the winter months, so I had a great Puerto Rican influence.\u201d— Greg Price (@Greg Price) 1664824806
\u201c@greg_price11 Is anyone else getting tired of Biden\u2019s lies about doing every job in the world when in reality he\u2019s never worked a day in his life. Also tired of Biden\u2019s lies that he lived everywhere in the world. This Retired Lt. Colonel Army Ranger believes the US \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 needs a Great Leader !\u201d— Greg Price (@Greg Price) 1664824806
\u201c@greg_price11 What the hell? This is going to rank right up there with the lie about marching for Civil Rights when he was fighting against a racial jungle or being arrested in South Africa trying to see Nelson Mandela. Another lie. Next he will say he was the first man on the moon.\u201d— Greg Price (@Greg Price) 1664824806
\u201c@greg_price11 I suppose it\u2019s better then calling them breakfast tacos.\u201d— Greg Price (@Greg Price) 1664824806
Sadly for Biden, the social media mockery continued when he made the following nonsensical statement later in the same speech:
\u201cBIDEN: "New York sent not only a Congresswoman one of the most congresswoman in the Congress"\n\nWhat does this mean?\n\n\u201d— Benny Johnson (@Benny Johnson) 1664826028
