Archie's defining characteristic is that he's a bigot. Fredo's defining characteristic is that he's a fucking moron. Not that he's Italian. He's the brother who got passed over. Fredo is a very specific insult and it has nothing to do with being Italian. It's not simply about low intelligence either. It's specifically about the dumbest brother in a family. You would never call an only child "Fredo".


Trump is not a moron and picked that slur for a reason. It's not because Cuomo is blond and blue-eyed.

Let's not kid ourselves. If the slur wasn't ethnic Italian before, it is now.

It's not a slur now because Chris Cuomo said it is.

Are you so willing to let the media do your thinking for you that what Chris Cuomo says when he is embarassed is now gospel?

Who said that anyone is thinking for me? It's un-Presidential and disrespectful for Trump to use such a term with anyone.

If "Fredo" is so harmless, why don't you drive out to Wood Dale or Addison where many Italians live and see how it goes over with them? You could try any of the restaurants on Lake St.

Every Italian I know knows exactly what "Fredo" means. Maybe Chris Cuomo doesn't because he is Fredo. :lol:

Chris Cuomo didn't get too upset when his colleague used the horrible slur against Italians:

Yeah, and I called my best friend as a kid Wop. He was also Italian. I was a Polack which frequently was preceded by the word DUMB. :) :) :)

Of course, Trump picked that insult for a reason. Fredo was the dumb weakling in a powerful family. Same thing applies to Chris Cuomo

Is this the Chris Cuomo who threatened to throw a reporter down a flight of stairs because he had the Gaul to ask him about his being called Fredo? Chrissy probably ought to lay off the roids for awhile. He's obviously on them and appears to be mentally unhinged because of them.

Or maybe I realize how dumb it would be to reinforce your misunderstanding of what a slur is to an Italian.

Most if not all would think "he doesn't even know what Fredo refers to."

Bad optics as a "wise man" that you are excusing Trump.

:lol: Nobody has "excused Trump." I would prefer that the president insult no one. (And that no one insult the president.) Regardless it does not make "Fredo" an ethnic slur.

The Dan Patrick Show started calling Freddie Kitchens, Fredo Kitchens during the year. I don't know if Kitchens is Italian or if he has any brothers.

I'd do it if the asshole that I am talking about is the epitome of a "Fredo". Do you think that Italians are proud of that Roid consuming asshole Chris Cuomo BTW?

You're once again WRONG. We're insulting an idiot son of a lousy NY governor.

Also, every Polack, gentleman, Mick, Kike, Kraut, DP, Rug Rider, and Slant Eye knows this also. :idea: :idea: :idea:

Pointing out your ignorance on a topic is not excusing Trump.
