First lady Jill Biden faced rebuke from Republicans after comparing the “diversity” of the Hispanic community to San Antonio’s “unique” selection of “breakfast tacos,” The Hill reported.
Speaking at the 2022 UnidosUS Annual Conference in San Antonio on Monday, Biden said of the organization’s President Raul Yzaguirre that he has “helped build this organization with the understanding that the diversity of this community, as distinct as the [bodegas] of the Bronx, as beautiful as the blossoms of Miami and as unique as the breakfast tacos here in San Antonio, is your strength.”
Shortly after the first lady’s comment, Republicans were quick to point out the tone-deafness, arguing it as an example of why Hispanic voters are straying from Democrats.
Tweeting a clip of Biden’s speech, Arizona GOP Rep. Andy Biggs commented, “no wonder Hispanics are fleeing the Democratic Party!”
Christina Pushaw, Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis’ press secretary, also commented, tweeting, “imagine the regime media meltdown if a conservative called Hispanics’ breakfast tacos’ like Dr. Jill Biden did at the Latinx Luncheon today. Democringe.”

Ha ha. The burritos are free.
I like breakfast tacos . Jill is fine. The RepubliCONs complain about everything that doesn’t matter.
4 more great YEARS!!
Yeh, okay.
The Bidens are classic privileged white Karens and Darens who have no clue about how the struggling inner city minorities live and their hardships. The Bidens are old time racists who hate blacks. The fact that this Doctor, a preschool teacher assistant, can’t even pronounce the word bodega properly, tells you all you need to know about the Biden disconnect.
I’ll stick with my racist bagels and English muffins. Not to mention my Eurocentric omelettes.
When later asked by reporters about her “tacos” gaffe”, the First Lady conceded that she had made a big flub.
“It was an important speech, but I blew it with the the ‘TACOS comment” she said, “I always blow it in CRUNCH time, and munch time.”
She then added: “For me to compare the ‘diversity of this community’ strictly to ‘BREAKFAST tacos’, while omitting the shared qualities the community also has with lunch tacos and supper tacos, is a huge insult. I’m sorry, and I apologize for my blunder. It won’t happen again.”
is she “senile” also – sounds like a perfect “match” with Joe
Just keep it up Biden fools until all Latinos will vote Republican.
No no no. The January 6th commission will save the Biden presidency.
Putin and the Ditz
If you’re blue with foot in your mouth
And all polls show your numbers went south
You’re tone-deaf Jill
The Dems are feeling ill
Their support is worse then tepid
It’s sad that Joe’s old and decrepit
Now what comes next?
Our country must be hexed
The polls all say that poor Joe Biden
Is underwater, worse than Poseidon
He’s lost his wits
As Prez he is the pits
~Taco
Ha ha ha. Very good+1
