‘A prepared speech’: White House approved Jill Biden’s ‘trainwreck’ taco comments

First Lady Jill Biden’s “racial commentary” wasn’t some “off-the-cuff gaffe”, it was a prepared speech, says Sky News host Rita Panahi.

Dr Biden has issued an apology after she compared the Latino community to “breakfast tacos” during a speech at the UnidosUS in San Antonio last week.

“Several people in the White House and on her staff approved that trainwreck,” Ms Panahi said.

Hilary called the general public 'deplorables' - unbelievable!

As someone who identifies as a Mexican taco, I am deeply offended by Jill's remarks.

[shirleyefting]

Of course the American news stations don’t report on this. Thank you Sky News.

[lynevelyn]

She said what she said…. She knew what she said and she meant it!!!!
She and her husband have a (long) history of making racist comments (“gaffes”)!!!!

How does Australian media read US politics so much better than US media.

Biden's true colors, shows how they truly are.

Every time I see Jill she just keeps reminding us all how great Melania Trump really is...a real 1st lady

Thank you Jill . You just lost so many of the Latino voters to voting republican.

From the lunatic governor of
California to the Tacos in the
White House, the country has
become a study in incompetence
from sea to shining sea.

[truthbetold]

She meant what she said and said what she meant!!!!

Everyone is finally realising how good they had it with Trump and Milania

[MikeFreland]

Can we just all get on board with the fact that Jill is just not bright.

[dancingdog]

Mrs trump was a classy first Lady and was too respectful to say such a thing

[LindaD]

That’s what happens when you hire people whom are uneducated and not qualified to do a job. You get results like this. 🤷‍♀️

What one believes one eventually says.

Latinos put family first. They love religion and country. Makes perfect sense that they are all onboard with we Republicans.
