Let's be clear here. I have no problems with Italians, one of my largest vendors is located in Milan and my wife and I honeymooned all around Italy and I love that country and the people there.

What I laugh at is the guy you linked as some kind of prophet talks like an uneducated fool spitting and slobbering all over himself. And your only response is racist, racist, racist. Do you not see how stupid you sound?

Lindsay Graham has already replied that he will not open a Senate hearing on the matter.

Trump has used the "Nasty Question" reply many times when confronted with a question he doesn't want to answer. I wasn't referring to Weijia Jiang but since you brought it up.
Ok, sorry missed the question earlier.

Maddow, Hayes, et al. have all used the phrase in reference to her question (i.e. Trump thinks it's a NASTY question but it was a nasty response and shows his racism) This is why I said if that question had been asked by an African would people still think the reply was done based on the reporters' ethnicity?

I am sure you are familiar with Pelosi? She did say there was nothing to worry about (coronavirus) and that people should come to Chinatown and that she would be going for Chinese New Year. Not to mention de blasio downplayed the virus and New Orleans mayor going ahead with Mardi Gras yet says now "no one from the Fed said anything" https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time..._United_States

As for hearings the vote is scheduled for June 4th (I believe) but didn't double check.

So why use an ethnic slur?

By definition.... No.

Unless you are saying that he's racist because he thinks he's better than the guy posting videos hyping his ethnicity while driving a car with enough trunk space for 3 people?

If just thinking you are better than someone else makes you a racist, then.... Well hello pot! Do you still talk to kettle?

It wasn't meant as an ethnic slur from me. It was a description, nothing more. If you have a problem with it then that's on you. Deal with it. It's no different than me describing you as a liberal idiot.

Let me give you my opinion of an ethnic slur.

Calling Native North Americans, indians. They were called this by the invaders that came and settled their land, because they resembled people from a foreign place. And I can bet you those invaders felt superior to the foreigners they were comparing the Natives to, as well as to the Native North Americans. That’s racist.

How many times have you referred to Native North Americans as indians?

In the 20th and 21st centuries, indigenous peoples in the Americas have been more vocal about the ways they wish to be referred to, pressing for the elimination of terms widely considered to be obsolete, inaccurate, or racist.

So again I’ll ask, How many times have you referred to Native North Americans as indians?

Oh the circus is in full steam. Peal clutching, mouths open, and spit drooling reporters are unhappy with TRUMP. Asking a load of a question to make yourself the center of a news cycle has been so overplayed, then don't forget follow it up with fake outrage. Gee, that is old news to everyone. Need to get a new story line as that one is worn out. Love how she pull down her mask for the cameras.

Election cycle histrionics, ignore the press and you will be much much happier in your life.

The idiot Gov of NY has his own crisis of leadership coming down with his handling of retirement/senior home Covid mandates. The forcing centers to accept back into facility residents who were being early released from hospitals with known Covid infection regardless of whether or not the facility had the means (staff, rooms, HVAC system, etc) to quarantine them properly. In fact those who refused we subject to arrest, violation reports and or closure by the State. Waiting on that investigation to happen in, one, two, three, xxx years.

Oh, the Gov, his brother and his Dad are IDIOTS. Political class like the Kennedy family, just one step out of the bottle.

I would not die on that word usage as way too many tribes embrace the classification themselves. Using a common accepted definition does not make a case on anything. In the land of the easily outraged I am sure you can find a few who are offended however. As a person of Italian heritage who has experienced directed comments, my answer is get over it and move on. Life is way too short to get your panties in a knot over a few words/terms to fake
outrage.

Let's find a good mom and pop Italian Restaurant and enjoy good meal and talk cars. That way everyone will have a bruised ego to stroke...
