    Prominent Democrats also 'guilty' of using the phrase 'monkey around'

    A Twitter user has compiled video clips of more than a dozen prominent Democrats using the phrase “monkey around” in recent years, pushing back at Democrats’ argument that Florida GOP gubernatorial nominee Ron DeSantis was racist to say it.

    Rich Weinstein of Philadelphia, whose Twitter handle is @Phillyrich1, tweeted videos of liberals using the phrase, even on the floor of the U.S. Senate and at the press secretary’s podium in the White House press room.


    They include Sen. Bernard Sanders of Vermont, Rep. Adam Schiff of California, Sen. Bill Nelson of Florida, Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer of New York (“monkeying around with health care”), Sen. Dick Durbin (“there’s no monkeying around with numbers here”), Sen. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland (“so we can avoid any monkey business with slush funds”), Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island, former Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts, former Obama press secretaries Jay Carney and Josh Earnest, and former Clinton White House press secretary Mike McCurry.

    I grew up with this phrase and it was never used in a denigrating manner as far as race goes. They have become the epitome of a postage stamp racist. Turn over a stamp, and it's racist because it is white.

    If you can be thrown out of college because you threw a banana peel into a tree and that was a racist act then monkeying around with monkeying around fits right in.

    False equivalencies abound. It's like someone calling a black person a watermelon eater, then conservatives running around posting phrases of liberals saying someone eats cantaloupes.

    "monkey this up" and "monkeying around" are two different phrases, one is common the other is adlib.

    You are being intellectually dishonest in believing the FL GOP candidate is racist. I think you know this but are compelled to promote the anti white male narrative.

    No, the people these stories are created for are lazy and stupid. The people who peddle these stories are intellectually dishonest.
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.
