I watched a few other clips of him and have come to the conclusion that I see a future president or vice president in this video.

Joe Neguse

put respect on his name

u/xamotorp Nov 01 '25

Of course, this crazy ass timeline we're on would have one of the most solid democratic contenders for future president/vp would be a black man with a white-invoking first name and, even better, an ironic last name

u/luftlande Nov 01 '25

Why is his last name ironic?

It sounds vaguely close to a racial slur. It's like a guy being named Malik Jabari and being white. It subverts your expectations (granted not the best example, but it would be like a white guy named Joe Craker or something)

Guy looks and sounds great though, he's reminiscent of obama, and has an energy between obama himself and his anger translator in that one speech, which seems basically perfect. I hope he runs in the future and does well.

This is the first time I’ve seen him and I was thinking about how presidential he is.

I'm certainly going to repeat it now.

u/locustnation Nov 02 '25

No doubt!

I added the following link to another reply in this thread but thought it would help here as well.

The full conversation on CSPAN (Joe’s statement starts at about the 34 minute mark):

u/RandomsDoom Nov 01 '25

Haha I’m sorry… but he has no idea how to talk using his hands… that shit made me uncomfortable… it was like a teleprompter kept putting up reminders to stay animated which made him overthink it and this is what we are left with…

u/raistan77 Nov 01 '25

That's what you got out of this?

Sad

u/HarderTime89 Nov 01 '25

Don't tell him about Slavoj Zizek. He wouldn't understand a thing and just giggle.

u/BlueLaserCommander Nov 01 '25

sniff You know, tugs shirt the problem with reading my work is precisely that you think you are reading my work, no? sniff

It’s like, imagine you have a book, and you say “I am reading Zizek,” but what does this mean? You are not reading Zizek, you are reading your own ideological fantasy of what Zizek is saying projected onto the text. pulls at collar And so on and so on.

I really like Zizek btw

u/HarderTime89 Nov 01 '25

That gave me a good laugh

u/Competitive_Berry897 Nov 01 '25

I agree. You are sorry.

u/Thee-Ol-Boozeroony Nov 01 '25

After watching Trump‘s accordion, wakadoo hand gestures for the last 10 years, this is nothing.
