I feel like this is fake.
Two reasons. I was unable to find a video clip of this, and it's not nearly racist enough for these shit-hawks.
If some has the clip, please share.
Edit: 3 reason, we're also on a shitpost channel.
It's definitely fake. The screenshot is from around the 4:37 timestamp.
Sadly, it doesn't matter if he said it when it is entirely reasonable to believe that he did. It isn't the most racist or the stupidest thing this guy has said on national television.
Snowflake racist: Burrito is a Mexican word 😭 Chad globalist: Burrito is a human word 😎
Diogenes: Behold a burrito! Holding a calzone
Agreed, Mexican food is one of the greatest culinary flavor profiles the world has known so far. This guy looks like he sits around eating mayonnaise out of the jar with a spoon. He's probably just mad that mayo prices went up.

I find bigotry and stupidity offensive and this guy still gets to say this stupid bigoted shit on television.
Too fucking bad for both of us.
Tbf taco bell is anything but Mexican
English? What is that some redcoat language savagery? Here in AMERICA, we speak AMERICAN!
You must be offended that Starbucks has Italian named drinks too.
FYI: No one who has ever had a “caramel macchiato” at Starbucks has ever had a macchiato at Starbucks.

They needed something to distract from the fact that they removed the stock ticker from their broadcast whole the market melted down
Fox news with the hard hitting journalism, as usual. And that saggy faced guy looks like he might have a coronary within the hour, someone should get him some help or he might die on tv. For now at least he is still entitled to universal health care via medicare.
Can males have resting bitch face?
That should be the real headline. Also, my toddler gets that look on his face when he is about to dump his food on the floor and cry, without actually knowing why he is crying.
He looks like he'd find eating any vegetable "offensive" as well. He might eat a pudding cup.
"Mexican"
¡ES ESPAÑOL, MAMAGÜEVO!
How do you say San Diego in Mexican?
As a San Diegan with a lot of Mexican friends, I think it's "El Pendejo Americano". They always yell that when I come over.
they just call me gringo
Completely glancing over the fact that there is exactly zero Mexican items at Taco Bell. Everything there is some kinda bastardized American Midwest slop. I think the only actual Spanish on the memo is "gordita" which loosely translates into ~~fat bitch~~ little fatty (really out of practice with my Spanish), which seems fitting.
Taco Bell sells tacos that are reasonably close to Mexican street tacos. Obviously not as good, but it's a small soft tortilla with fillings, that's what you get in Mexico too.
Burritos are also Mexican, though they're not as common across the whole country as tacos. The modern burrito comes from Ciudad Juarez right on the border with Texas.
Most of the rest of the Taco Bell menu isn't authenitcally Mexican, but I'd say their core menu items are tacos and burritos.
Ehhh... "gordita" does not translate to "Fat Bitch" but "Little Faty"...
But little fatty is just a pure translation. It actually just means something closer to "thick" as in "that tortilla is a little thick"..."esa tortilla esta gordita....hey! Ya se! Porque no les ponemos "gorditas"! Vale?" "Orale compadre, entonces ya quedamos, son gorditas! Son o estan? Son! Luego que tal si algun pendejo en China No's traduce a estan y empiesan a discriminar? No no, son gorditas. Okay pies, entonces so gorditas y ya OK? Ok! Porque cabrones dices OK? Quiero decir que estoy de acuerdo contigo. Today la genre dice okay!

At this point, I'm not completely sure that this administration has really only appointed the most qualified people for those cabinet positions.
You can see the merit written all over their skin color.
Kakistocracy is the word
They need to speak American in America!
Bigotry and stupidity are two sides of the same coin.
I know I'm not supposed to use the R word as it's derogatory but for fucks sake, it's literally the only word that describes this
*Edit: spelling
Republican?
Yup, can't call them that anymore. Now they are MAGA Nazis.
Associating this man is an insult to the mentally disabled, actually.
Call him a Pakled, that's allowed.
I am so SMRT. I mean SMART.
