Barack Obama warned supporters that politicians had “monkeyed around” with elections, during a campaign speech at Kent State University in New Philadelphia, Ohio, on September 3, 2008.
Then-Senator Obama (D-IL) said: “I come from Chicago. It’s not as if it’s just Republicans who have monkeyed around with elections in the past. Sometimes Democrats have, too. You know, whenever people are in power, they have this tendency to try to tilt things in their direction.”
So Barack Obama saying, "It’s not as if it’s just Republicans who have monkeyed around with elections in the past. Sometimes Democrats have, too" would be a racist 'dog whistle' too? Shall we hoist him on a petard right next to DeSantis? Crickets on that one, I suspect.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who has worked to portray himself as a major antagonist to President Trump, offered an alternative to the president’s famous campaign slogan, “Make America Great Again,” at a bill signing Wednesday.
“We are not going to make America great again. It was never that great,” he said. The audience, which was there to watch Cuomo sign a bill to make sex trafficking a felony in the state, reacted with audible gasps and cheers. The governor was attempting to make a larger point about women’s equality, but the context was lost with the shocked reaction to his first sentence.
Or, in his words, “I was present at wreath-laying but don’t think I was involved.” According to The Guardian,

I guess I shouldn't believe my lyin' eyes, then, Jeremy. After-all, you're just "holding" it here, aren't you? pic.twitter.com/nwRUCupwgf

that quote of yours living on in infamy along with Jimmy Carter’s “Malaise” speech, Mitt’s “Binders of Women or Forty-seven Per Cent“, or even Hillary’s “Basket of Deplorables“.
