I'll add a remark if I may....can we all refrain from personal attacks and petty insults.

What is so racist about it? Did not Biden claim to be Irish?

Did Biden make the photo?

So what? The tons of similar pictures of Trump weren't made by him either. I didn't see you get your knickers in a twist over those.

I can care less about the crown, and the joke, but I'm getting crap about the added Irish flag business so I want to know who made it and why they put the flag there. It's not there by accident but nevermind.

What's up with this Santos dude? I can't find a good reason for why he was running that makes any sense.

You're getting crap about casually throwing out the one trick pony "racism" card against me on an image that happens to contain an Irish lapel pin. I had no problem living with the Scots for several years, so I'm sure I'd get along fine with the Irish too.

Whatever.

Human Rights First’s research, updated in a report issued earlier this month, has found over 13,480 reports of murder, torture, kidnapping, rape, and other violent attacks on migrants and asylum seekers blocked in or expelled to Mexico under Title 42 since President Biden took office.

What would democrat Jesus do? Shed a tear, run for office, and keep them out of democrat voter neighborhoods

Why he was running? To beat the evil lying Democrats of course! At least Santo's seems not to have plagiarized his campaign speeches like the present Liar in Chief.

Santos cant open his mouth without lying (which makes him perfect for congress), He lies about his education, his employment, his monetary worth, his address, you name it, he's probably lied about it. He claims he is gay, but was married to a woman until 2019, and didn't "come out" publicly until this year. Taking into account all his other lies, fabrications, and exaggerations, I have to wonder if he is actually gay, or just claiming to be for convenience.

Sorry but it's a completely valid comparison. Your President has lied repeatedly throughout his career but apparently that does not matter to you. I maintain that your outrage in this case is mainly about the (R) after Santos name than anything he has said.
