Lol ok buddy. Me being a gaslighter is pretty convenient for your cognitive dissonance.

He's clearly an objective, rational person with totally real friends

Sure. I'd still say that he just fumbled his words, as people do everyday. Importantly, it's incredibly stupid to hyper focus on someone possibly saying a naughty word when the whole Haitian migrants story is full of real, undeniable, tangible racism. Missing the forest for the trees.

Wow you really got me there. Lol the comment is at a positive ratio. The people downvoting me are the willfully ignorant, such as yourself, who would ignore any and all evidence contrary to your notion that a practiced media presence said the n-word live in front of cameras, lol, super smart deduction there buddy. Also ignore the sentence structure and how much more sense "migrant" makes following the word "Haitian", ignore that he was actually defending the Haitian migrants in his comments, ignore how the consonant sounds slightly more like an "m" than an "n", and ignore that his lips move together when making the "m" sound, which wouldn't happen with an "n". Did I miss anything?

Did you ...watch the video? His lips move together at the consonant in question. Lol but sure, you're not just hearing what you want to hear.

Lol ok buddy. Everyone closes their lips when they pronounce an "m", right? CLEAR AS DAY. keep fighting the good fight, hive mind

This is the exact same sort of shit conservatives do whenever Biden drops some elderly language. It's gross, and needlessly desperate.

BINGO. the most frustrating part of dealing with these types of commenters is that they always lack the awareness to see that they're operating in the same way that the bad-faith repubs do.

There's so many real examples of conservative racism out there. You don't need to make up fake ones.

Yep. Like, goddamn. Vance admitted he made up the story. Theres so much racism baked into this ENTIRE news story, that focusing on someone misspeaking is missing the forest for the trees.

Nah man, you're hearing what you want to hear. Just look at his lips - they come together as they would with an "m" sound. The exact same way they come together shortly thereafter to say "migrants" properly.

Compare his mouth movement to when he says "in", his lips do not move together.

Or keep hearing what you want to hear, I don't care. Nothing I say will change your mind.

Sorry, thought you were the squid man. Regardless, on its face (without examining the video), his explanation makes more sense than a practiced media person blurting out the n-word on camera. Examining the audio, i'd say that I'm more confident that he's making an "m" sound than an "n". Examining the video, it appears his lips close when making the m/n sound, indicating an "m" over an "n".

That seems to be pretty objective. Most of the comments in this thread are getting high off of righteous indignation instead of thinking that, possibly, the conservative asshole didn't blurt out the n-word on camera.

Yes, you're definitely the objective one here lol
