Marco Rubio: Biden should apologize..... for Neanderthal comment

[IcyPeas]

President Biden’s use of an old stereotype is hurtful to modern Europeans, Asians & Americans who inherit about 2% of their genes from Neanderthal ancestors.

He should apologize for his insensitive comments and seek training on unconscious bias.

38. Pres. Biden: "Marco, I'm sorry you're a f*ckin' NEANDERTHAL!"

"I'm sorry your dumbass Neanderthal brain infects the United States Senate--come next election we are going to send it packing with your ass."

Now, Marco, please proceed with self-fornication. With a pitchfork.

[panader0]

[Paladin]

5. Blow it out your ass, Marco. (nt)

[PatSeg]

32. Did he honestly think

he would intimidate Biden with this nonsense? Maybe Marco should stop trying to be clever on Twitter and do his damn job. Joe is trying to help the American people. Try it Marco. It was what you were elected to do.

[Paladin]

39. +1000. (nt)

[Buckeye_Democrat]

7. Lol! Yes, let's now talk about how the Neanderthals...

... were in Eurasia long before humans from Africa (probably all dark-skinned at that point) STOLE it from them.

Good grief. They're long extinct, lil' Marco!

[Bettie]

8. Marco should apologize for being a giant

pile of shit, but he never does.

[RANDYWILDMAN]

10. Marco should be quiet

The more he talks, the less smart people realize he is

[vlyons]

11. Republicans are the biggest snowflakes ever

nt

[ruet]

12. Rubio is Right.

Joe would have better off saying "Genghis thinking".

[rogue emissary]

13. Oh, he hurt lil' Marco's feelings.

[EarlG]

14. This tweet now appears in the dictionary

Under the entry "disingenuous."

[TwilightZone]

15. Hey, if the club fits....

[central scrutinizer]

16. So he's all woke and PC

Now all of a sudden.

[lame54]

17. "To Neanderthals I apologize for comparing you to republicans."

[malaise]

18. LIl Marco apologize for the over 500,00 dead people

then go away

[lagomorph777]

19. I know - he should have said "Australopithecine"

[sfstaxprep]

20. Neanderthal Says What? nt

[GregariousGroundhog]

21. Biden should apologize...

...to the Neanderthals.

[dem4decades]

22. Rubio should apologize for being a spineless bitch.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

23. The obvious trolling is obvious.

That's about all the modern GOP can offer. Trolling and trying to "own the libs".

[dilby]

24. Is this dude serious?

Who new Neanderthal was such an offense for people of European descent? I mean it’s not like he is being compared to a monkey.

[Midnight Writer]

25. I'm glad Senator Rubio recognizes that evolution is a fact and the Bible is wrong.

[ariadne0614]

26. Should Biden apologize to the Neanderthals?

They were probably more evolved than 21st century reThugs.

[Deuxcents]

27. No apology

Rubio should stfu and go away.

[eShirl]

28. It was an insult to Neanderthals.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

30. That's how I saw it, and strangely enough, that's...

... seemingly Rubio's take on it too!

The truth is that he's just being a little prick, trying to get more white people to take offense about something said by a Democrat.

[Midnightwalk]

29. Humans share 96% of their genetic code with chimpanzees

Marco Rubio shares a higher percentage. I apologize to chimpanzees.

[stillcool]

31. little boys telling stupid jokes...

[tinrobot]

33. I'm sure any remaining Neanderthals were offended by the camparison.

Neanderthal are much better people than GOP governors.

[dhill926]

34. these morons are lapsing into parody...

or beyond. God almighty...

[Blue Owl]

35. Geico Rubio could save 15% on car insurance

[spanone]

37. fuck you marco

[sanatanadharma]

41. Republican Rubio identifying with the 2%, not the 98%

These low percentage* republican cave-dwellers never see, know nothing about, the reality of the 98%.
Apparently Rubio has an unconscious bias against truth, justice and the American way.
Or, perhaps, he has majority Neanderthal genes and takes ignorance personally.

*low morality, compassion, honesty, etc

[tavernier]

42. You knew it was coming...

And you knew it would probably come from one of the five dumbest cave dwellers. Rubio was certainly on that list.

[mnmoderatedem]

43. fine. Put it in the mail Joe.

with DeJoy still in charge, they will never get it.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

44. So did Biden stumble upon a new "N-WORD"...

... that actually bothers several white people?

Sure seems like it!

[Efilroft Sul]

45. It's not Biden's fault that when the three Republican governors are asked to pronounce "airplane"...

…Greg Abbott, Ron DeSantis, and Tate Reeves all point to the sky and say, "OOG! OOG! OOG!" when they see a Piper Cub.

[bdamomma]

46. Shut up

Marco.

[UTUSN]

47. Note to RUBIO: Ya got a*long*list of apologies to work on B4 demanding & got a Bible quote on that?!

[Generic Other]

48. Marco has the Neanderthal brow ridge

thus much more than 2% DNA. And his father was the keeper of the Eddystone Light. And from that union there came three, a mermaid, a porpoise and Marco swinging from a tree.

[oasis]

50. Kiss my ass Marco.

[orleans]

51. lol
