I dont mean to be ungracious but Im sick of the reverence society pays to wealthy people, especially vulgararians surrounding the POTUS and GOP.
James Talarico has a good soul.

(55,044 posts)The phrase "rico suave" (roughly translating from Spanish to "rich and smooth" ) is a slang term used to describe a flashy, confident, and slickly dressed Latino ladies' man. It is both an archetype of a smooth-talking womanizer and a light-hearted nickname for someone trying too hard to be charming.

Who uses Rico Suave?
Rico Suave tends to be used as the name of a stereotypical Latino ladies man who is very charming but cocky, often depicted as wearing gold jewelry, with flowing or greased hair, and long, unbuttoned shirts over a muscular torso.
People tend to use the term as a way to refer to Latin men they think fit that profile (e.g. Check out Rico Suave over there). Its important to stress here that Rico Suave is a stereotype, and is considered offensive by many, including the Latino community, who widely criticized Gerardo Mejía for perpetuating such a caricature.

(208 posts)Arnie or Sylvester or Chuck or Bruce or some other pumped-up guy they like to believe is a
superhero and try to compare themselves to them. I will be 72 in October and I never in my
life thought I would ever see anything this sad and depressing as what the definition of
manhood has come to!!!!

As of May 2026, Talarico has been in a four‑year relationship with a woman who previously served as his chief of staff in his Texas House office; she left the position after they developed feelings for each other.
