1. "Speaks perfect english", unlike me.

[yallerdawg]

2. So blatantly, casually, obliviously racist.

History is not going to be kind. "What was wrong with them?"

[kacekwl]

3. Don't those cowboys know

it's rude to wear your hat indoors ?

[Totally Tunsie]

4. "Yes, step right up here Agent Adrian Anzaldua of the CBC..."

"...saluting the heroes of ICE and CBC."

"Let me extend my gratitude to every law enforcement professional representing ICE and CBC."

"...and the CBC is doing such wonderful work along the border."

"...a true and loyal friend of ICE and CBC."

"...and we should all be proud of our ICE and CBC."

Congressional Black Caucus? Canadian Broadcasting Company?

'cept that it's NOT the CBC, jackass. It's the CBP a.k.a. U.S. Customs and Border Protection Agency.

Note as the camera pans to Agent Anzaldua, the slight, but meaningful, eye roll and head shake of the first seated agent, who is as dumbfounded as the rest of us. (at 1:54 on the video)

Days since tRump's last embarrassment to the U.S.: 0

Yes, BigBoy is a moron and proves it every day.

5. 'Speaks Perfect English,' Trump Says of Hispanic-American Border Patrol Agent (NYT)

‘Speaks Perfect English,’ Trump Says of Hispanic-American Border Patrol Agent
By Julie Hirschfeld Davis
Aug. 20, 2018

WASHINGTON — It was supposed to be a White House salute to the heroism of immigration agents who put their lives on the line to protect Americans. But on Monday, President Trump appeared to have something else on his mind: the ethnicity of one of the men he was honoring.

“Speaks perfect English,” Mr. Trump blurted out as he encouraged Adrian Anzaldua, a Hispanic-American Border Patrol agent and dog handler from Texas, to join him onstage in the East Room. Mr. Anzaldua recently arrested a smuggler in Laredo who had tried to bring 78 people into the United States illegally inside a truck trailer.

“Come here. I want to ask you about that — 78 lives,” Mr. Trump said, putting Mr. Anzaldua on the spot. “You saved 78 people. So how did you feel, that there were people in that trailer?”

If Mr. Anzaldua was offended, he did not show it. He smiled and strode to the lectern, then offered a brief account of how he received an alert about the truck, “ran the dog” to search it, then opened the latch to reveal “a lot of subjects.”

“Fantastic job — what a good job he did,” Mr. Trump said, adding wryly, “Tomorrow he will be announcing that he’s running for office.”

The episode was the latest example of the president making a racially tinged remark in public, this time during an event devised to spotlight his tough immigration agenda. It came only days after a former aide, Omarosa Manigault Newman, claimed in a tell-all book that Mr. Trump had been caught on tape using a racial slur to refer to African-Americans, a charge that he has denied but that his press secretary did not flatly rule out.

Serious case of rabies

8. Well, we had better make sure

Let's take off his head, remove the brain (if we can find it), and test it for rabies. That's my plan

[Straw Man]

9. Which is scarier?

The racism or the stupidity?
