Todd Talk: If You Can’t Speak English, You Can’t Lead a City
A 60-second conservative commentary with humor and heart.
My friends, how can you lead an American city if you can’t speak English?
The city of Lawrence, Massachusetts, elected Brian De Peña as mayor, yet his English is reportedly so limited that he required a translator to communicate with English speakers during a court hearing on Friday. A translator. To speak English.
Even when the Left does speak English, their ideas often don’t make sense — but at least we can understand the words.
It is reasonable to expect elected officials to speak English. This isn’t racist or xenophobic. It’s logical. It’s absolutely not a problem that he speaks Spanish, but it matters if he only speaks Spanish. What matters is whether a mayor can clearly communicate with the people he serves.
This is basic competence — and the fact that this is a true story is absolutely ridiculous.
