Except he didn't say "exactly" what you claim he did.
The video mentions nothing about him liking kids more than people. And nothing solid about him refusing to speak out against the camps.
What we do hear is this:
"the idea that I'm not gonna speak out against what he (Xi) is doing in Hong Kong, what he's doing with the Uighurs in the western mountains of... of... China... and Taiwan, China... and One China policy" and then he trails off, saying that Xi "gets it" and then says "culturally there are different norms in each country and their leaders are expected to follow".
Which seems to sound like he was going to rubbish the idea that he wouldn't speak out for fear of being accused of being culturally insensitive, but got lost along the way.
So, we get far right loons like Cernovich and such noted unbiased outlets; the New York Post and Daily Sabah jumping on his word salad.
And that's it.
It sounded similarly to me, to be honest, but we’re just interpreting what that means differently, I guess (yes I realize that doesn’t make perfect sense but I’m tired).
And do you really want me to go find the video where he says everybody knows he likes kids better than people.. I said it was in the same speech, not the same video. I’m honestly surprised you haven’t already seen that one, as I assumed this thread was probably more for lighthearted mockery of gaffes, what with the dem kid gloves and all. That’s why I posted that in the first place.
eta Im not trying to inject some shady, lurid undertones into that sentiment, it was just some stupid shit he said (about liking kids better than people bc, obvs kids are people..)
