    Now do "They're eating the dogs."

    Oh wait, that intentionally racist, race-baiting remark didn't happen. Because you don't want it to have.

    What's next, you in an uproar over some Dem's adultery?

    That was a reach. All he’s saying is just like white people black people won’t do that kind of work either, and that Trump’s plan for education will make it more difficult for black children to get a quality education. However people immigrating from depressed 3rd world countries would be more willing to do agricultural labor.

    He was speaking metaphorically. He stated this when asked about it:
    Johnson said, "I can say things that are quite humorous and not smile about it and it leads people to think about what I said."

    "Often, I've been known to use humor as I deliver a message. That's just one of the gifts that I think that I have," Johnson deadpanned.

    "I've been around long enough in this district for voters to know that if Hank said Guam is in danger of capsizing, they would know precisely that I have a sense of humor."

    Yeah, but what are the odds he’d say something that stupid again?

    I couldn’t watch long. That’s painful. I may need to suspend you for that.

    If he moderated correctly, your ass would have been banned for all the insults and spam.
    That’s my only complaint from his moderation.

    This thread is a lie. He started by saying black people would be hurt the most by eduction cuts, then said “WE are not intellectually suited” to go back to being field workers…. It’s in the quotes in the OP link. He’s a white or Hispanic guy so I’m not sure how “WE” referrers only to black people.

    Edit… my bad, the picture in the link is a white guy so I assumed it was him…

    Oh come on! You’ve never heard of deadpan humor? When Reagan was about to go into surgery after being shot he cracked this joke to the medical team "I hope you are all Republicans." Now did Reagan really want the entire medical team to be Republican before operating, or was he joking?

    The Georgia congressman even explained that he was joking which is sad enough for people who thought he wasn’t, and for those who still don’t get it all I can say is either they don’t want to believe it, or they just don’t get jokes.
