REPUBLICAN SENATOR SUGGESTS BIDEN’S BLACK FEMALE SCOTUS PICK WON’T KNOW “A LAW BOOK FROM A J.CREW CATALOG”

John Kennedy managed to combine racism, sexism, and WTFism in one fell swoop.

Apparently not wanting to be left out, GOP Senator John Kennedy, a member of the Judiciary Committee, said on Tuesday, according to Politico: “No. 1, I want a nominee who knows a law book from a J.Crew catalog. No. 2, I want a nominee who’s not going to try to rewrite the Constitution every other Thursday to try to advance a ‘woke agenda.’”

While conservatives, who will still control the Supreme Court regardless of whom Biden picks, are undoubtedly concerned about the president nominating someone whose “agenda” doesn’t involve obliterating voting rights, sending children to prison for life with no chance of parole, and probably destroying Roe v. Wade, it’s the first part of Kennedy’s statement—the one that seemingly suggests a Black woman would be so unqualified that she would not know the difference between a “law book” and a clothing catalog—that‘s clearly the most offensive.

1. He plays dumb country lawyer

But is an elitist, sexist, racist stuck up snob.

[Mz Pip]

2. In other words

Kennedy wants a White Southern good ol’ boy.

[brer cat]

3. He is showing off all his isms.

Maybe he thinks that makes him sound smart instead of a first class idiot.

[Midnight Writer]

4. As opposed to our recent nominees, who don't know an alcoholic blackout from a religious vision.

[MyOwnPeace]

6. WOW!!! That is GREAT!!!!!!

"don't know an alcoholic blackout from a religious vision."

[PatSeg]

12. Oh snap!!!

[Diamond_Dog]

5. I am speechless on this one. What year is it, again?

[MerryHolidays]

7. This is just appalling

Someone had an OP on this a couple of days ago. I think Joy Reid referred to Kennedy as "Foghorn Leghorn", which made me laugh out loud. I think Mr. Haney from Green Acres is an even better description of this buffoon, in terms of looks, mannerisms, and ethics.

In that same thread, someone mentioned that Kennedy has a fetish about referring to J. Crew, citing several instances where this moron referred to the catalog. In that same thread, someone also pointed out that Michelle Obama loves J. Crew and that Kennedy's strange obsession to the catalog was a thinly veiled slam against AA women.

If that's true, it is beyond reprehensible.

9. Yep it's just a way to insult Michelle Obama, who is a lawyer

[MerryHolidays]

11. Disgusting

I hope the MSM asks him precisely why he used J.Crew in the context of the appointment of the new SCOTUS justice. And I hope that reporter is armed with this.

What an abject pathetic loser he is.

[Walleye]

14. They won't ask him, they are trying too hard to normalize this crap

[11 Bravo]

8. Kennedy has used the "J. Crew" comparison on multiple occasions.

Not all of them have been directed at people of color.
Don't get me wrong, he's absolutely a racist douche nozzle; but the mush-mouthed old prick is also just too fucking stupid to memorize any new material.

[TexasBushwhacker]

13. Yeah, Michelle Obama was a fan of J Crew n/t

[PatSeg]

10. Biden hasn't even announced a pick yet!

So John "No Relation" Kennedy is going to automatically assume that whoever it is won't know a law book from a J. Crew catalog? Basically in his eyes, all black women are unqualified.

What a jerk!

[sheshe2]

15. Makes me ill that he has that name. nt

[PatSeg]

17. I know

That is why Brian Williams never mentioned him without including the "No Relation", two words that say so much.

[whistler162]

16. So why did he vote for three justices that

do rewrite the constitution on a daily basis and I am not too sure Kavanaugh knows the difference between a J. Crew catalog and a law book other than one has pictures.
