The extremist Republican congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene triggered a wave of viral jokes on Wednesday after ranting about the “gazpacho police” patrolling the Capitol building in Washington DC.

Greene was apparently mixing up the famously cold Spanish soup gazpacho with the Gestapo – the brutal Nazi-era secret police in Germany.


Reminds me of:

Now there's a person who could stand to read a copy of Maus, but won't for fear she might actually learn something. And everyone knows learning is how you get turned into a filthy, gay, god-hating liberal.

When I read the title of this thread, I thought it was going to be a thread about some Trumpanzee member of the GOP talking about bat soup and covid. Well, the real topic of this thread is different, but carries the same stupid racism of Trumpanzee GOP.

We already have an official MTG thread and this has already been posted there.
Best way to find MTG threads in the first two pages of P&N
Bash:
pageContent="$(curl https://forums.anandtech.com/forums/politics-and-news.24/)";
pageTwoContent="$(curl https://forums.anandtech.com/forums/politics-and-news.24/page-2)";
echo "$pageContent" | grep -i MTG | less;
echo "$pageTwoContent" | grep -i MTG | less;

Pelosi’s Gazpacho? DC Goulash? Next thing you know, Anti-Pho will show up!

What The Pho? Why would there be anti-pho people? Are you Pho Real? Please stop Pho King with me.

Y'all just go easy on Marjorie. She can't help being so stewpid. It's hard being one of the souperstars of the GOP.

The sad part? She probably ain't the dumbest GOP member of Congress. Think that would probably go to Lauren "GED" Boebert.

Of course, most of the mouth breathers that elected her are going, "what the fuck is gazpacho?"

I doubt many of them batted an eye. It's not like they would know the difference between gazpacho and the Gestapo any better than they can differentiate their asses from a hole in the ground.

"Sounds the same to me! Err'bodeh knew what she meant!"

To be honest, the _only_ reason I've ever heard of it is that Red Dwarf episode above. Otherwise I'd probably have, if ever served it, like Rimmer, ended up sending it back because it was cold.

It was mentioned in the Apple commercial with Samuel L. Jackson a while back too :)

More of a "phuh" pronunciation. Like a mix between long o and er sound.

Also, What The Pho, Pho Real, and Pho King, are all names of real restaurants, playing on the word pho. What The Pho is somewhere in Georgia, and Pho Real is in Maryland. I've been to both. Pho King is in Pennsylvania, but I've never been to this particular restaurant.
