1. Ohhhh, I like him!

[Squinch]

2. How mortifying for us.

[Arkansas Granny]

6. I know. I hope most people don't judge all of us by the willfully ignorant few.

[StarryNite]

13. Unfortunately it's way more than just a few who are willfully ignorant.

[spudspud]

22. More like almost half the damn population.

[certainot]

37. thats exactly why "well, that's what limbaugh would say" could preface just about any response to

trump republicans by biden, harris or any other dem in media, because 1500 radio stations, licensed to operate in the public interest, reaching 50 mil/week have been hearing covid denial since it started

now they're used to push dem govs to reopen early and making fun of mask wearing

[CrispyQ]

36. It truly is.

In my extended family I have four members, that I know of, who believe a lot of the Q-anon crap. A couple of them are college educated. I just shake my head at what the hell happened to them. ???

[certainot]

38. ask them indirectly if they ever listened to talk radio, and who, while driving etc

fox and social media play a part but the hillary hate has been going on on talk radio for 30 years - unchallenged

[unblock]

3. Love how these morans are now how the world sees America.

January 20 can't get here fast enough!

[Wounded Bear]

4. We could use a hell of a lot of that around the good old US of A...

[brush]

5. That's how it's done.

[CatMor]

7. That is a great response .. should be done like that here.

[cwydro]

8. Oh that's excellent.

[Cracklin Charlie]

9. Kick

[njhoneybadger]

10. That's great

[malaise]

11. Perfect

[FoxNewsSucks]

12. I've gotten to the point that I have locked

my pepper spray up at home when I have to go somewhere. I don't trust myself to not just spray any asshole indoors without a mask, or any moron who would say anything that stupid.

[barbtries]

18. i don't go places,

but i do enter my son's room with a can of lysol and spray all over when i want to chat with him. he works in a grocery.

maybe a can of lysol instead? it won't hurt them and you will be protecting yourself and others by at least cutting down the viral load.

[FoxNewsSucks]

26. Good idea

But I think it'll be a lot less satisfying

[barbtries]

14. so, people are still looking to the United States

to inform their actions and educate their people.

we're Number 1! America First!

[Aviation Pro]

15. Kiwis brook no bullshit

....

[Hamlette]

16. I love this for so many reasons!

[ffr]

17. Yep, shut them down and move on. No time to waste on convincing idiots.

[DemUnleashed]

19. Can't...

Can't wipe this huge smile off of my face!!!

[marble falls]

20. "Here's someone obviously educated in America." Ouch. Thanks Donald Trump.

[JDC]

21. This makes me ashamed.

[panfluteman]

23. How About, "Just Ask Herman Cain"?

[Lifelong Protester]

24. K & R

[Iggo]

25. Ouch!

I’ll claim him. That’s definitely one of our idiots.

[aggiesal]

35. That's definitely one of our Covidiots. ...

There I fixed it.

[Cha]

27. Rt.. TY Winston Peters!

[JI7]

28. If this happened in the US the media would be showing concern over

the politician's response and would equate it to the shit Trump does .

[DFW]

29. Probably some subsequent turmoil in the NZ Foreign Office

Who gave that wanker a visa to enter our country in the first place?

“Obviously educated in America”

I do hear that a lot overseas these days. “Don’t they teach you people anything in your schools these days other than how to acquire brain damage by playing American football?”

[Meowmee]

30. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻

[NoRoadUntravelled]

31. Bravo for the Assistant Prime Minister

Shame on America's current administration and anyone who supports it. The US is now being used as an example of the ultimate in conspiracy theory, science denying, ignorant, brainwashed, fucktardery and dumb shit lunacy on the planet.

[SunSeeker]

32. We've become the flat-earthers of the world. Such an embarrassment for America.

[IronLionZion]

33. American exceptionalism

I'd love to be in New Zealand but don't know why a COVID denier would want to be there. There are plenty of COVIDiots here in the US for him to hang out with, unmasked, breathing deeply.

[greenjar_01]

34. This fool thought he was going to get off his idiotic "four criteria"

Some Americans gonna learn their shit does not play outside their little and shrinking American world. Serious people have no time for bullshit.

[JI7]

39. Watching this is really Satisfying . I kept rewatching it

Probably becsuse we are used to our media allowing these fools to spread their bs and treating them in a serious manner instead of just calling out their stupidity.
