White House comms staff altered the transcript of President Joe Biden’s now-MAGA-infamous “garbage” comment to add the apostrophe over the objections of the career stenographers, the AP reports on what will be seen as a “win” for Elise Stefanik and the other House GOP dipshits who opened an investigation into the transcript of the Tuesday night Zoom call with Voto Latino.
“The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters – his – his demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American,” said the original version, with the apostrophe added to “supporters” to change it from plural to possessive, thereby “altering” the meaning.
First off, when you actually look at it “in context” like that, there’s an extremely strong argument that Biden did in fact mean it in the possessive sense, that the “his” shifted from Trump to asshole “comedian” Tony Hinchcliffe, as in “[Hinchcliffe’s] demonization of Latinos is unconscionable.” This isn’t political staff altering public record so much as favoring their side of a very, very close call.
Second off, L-O-fucking-L that this is the “major scandal” of the final days of this election, that both the House GOP were “right” that something was fishy and it’s now on them to try to make this matter AND, more importantly, tie it to Vice President Kamala Harris. Best of luck to them on that.
