Carl Paladino - A Complete Disgrace (Updated)

Artvoice (a weekly Buffalo magazine): What would you most like to happen in 2017?

Carl Paladino: Obama catches mad cow disease after being caught having relations with a Hereford. He dies before his trial and is buried in a cow pasture next to Valerie Jarrett, who died weeks prior, after being convicted of sedition and treason, when a jihadi cellmate mistook her for being a nice person and decapitated her.

Artvoice: What would you most like to see go in 2017?

Carl Paladino: Michelle Obama. I’d like her to return to being a male and let loose in the outback of Zimbabwe where she lives comfortably in a cave with Maxie, the gorilla.

Keep it classy, Carl.



Paladino, Donald Trump's New York campaign co-chair, is a Buffalo property developer. His run for governor of New York in 2010 was supported by Trump confidant Roger Stone (he lost to Andrew Cuomo, 61% to 34%). During the campaign, some of his ugly, racist emails were made public. He is presently a member of the Buffalo School Board. He campaigned for Newt Gingrich in the 2012 presidential primaries. In August 2016, he claimed that President Obama is a secret Muslim. Earlier this year, Paladino said that Trump supporters were people frustrated with government and who “want the raccoons out of the basement”. He defended that comment amidst claims it was racist.

UPDATE:

Paladino has been given 24 hours to quit the Buffalo School Board or be fired. Strangely, the vote was 6-2. I wonder how the 2 dissenters justify their vote?

The resolution was presented by Hope Jay, a board member, who described Paladino's comments as: “unambiguously racist, morally repugnant, flagrantly disrespectful, inflammatory and inexcusable" and stated that they reflected negatively on “the Buffalo Board of Education, the City of Buffalo and its leadership and its citizens, the State of New York, and every decent human being in America and abroad who has been shocked and offended by his words.”

Ms. Jay got a standing ovation.

Paladino tried to issue an apology, but it fell flat. He said he 'never intended to hurt the minority community' and is definitely not a racist. He tried to justify his comments by saying he was just trying to be funny with his friends and never though his interview with a newspaper would actually be published.

Yeah, right.

Thousands of Buffalo residents had protested Paladino's disgusting remarks.
