One user called Biden’s comment ‘casual, old school, anti-Irish stereotyping’
President Joe Biden’s critics on Twitter blasted him for a couple of awkward ethnic-related comments he made during a recent U.S. veterans town hall address in Delaware.
During the Friday speech, Biden claimed that despite him being Irish, “he’s not stupid” and insisted he’s got “a little Italian” in him because his wife’s family is Italian. Though many internet users panned the comments as being in poor taste.
He joked, “I may be Irish, but I’m not stupid. I married Dominic Giacoppa’s daughter so, you know, I got a little Italian in me now.”
I’m tellin’ ya. He’s a prejudiced bastard. Has been all his life.
The only thing so far Joe Biden hasn’t claimed to be is black!
