Republican Senator John Kennedy from Louisiana is known for his distinctive communication style. During a recent appearance on the Sean Hannity show, Kennedy addressed comments made by some Hollywood figures, including Sharon Stone, who attributed Donald Trump's electoral success to "uneducated Americans."

Kennedy's response was measured but pointed. He remarked that these individuals often believe their children can change genders and consider themselves morally superior to others in the country.

Via the Vigilant Fox on Twitter/X, Kennedy stated: “Here’s what I think. I think these people are goofy. They have the right to their opinion, but they’re just goofy. They hate George Washington and Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln and Dr. Seuss and Mr. Potato Head."

He continued, “They think our kids ought to be able to change genders at recess. They carry around Ziploc bags of kale to give themselves energy. To me—to each his own. To me, kale tastes like I’d rather be fat. Now, these people are entitled to their opinion, but they have an unwarranted sense of moral and intellectual superiority."

Kennedy added, “They think they’re smarter and more virtuous than the American people. And they think we’re not real people. But we were, and we are real people."

Reflecting on the election results, he concluded: “And in this last election, we got real mad, and we sent a message, clearly, unequivocally. And my message to all my friends and my enemies in America is: Happy Thanksgiving, and stay deplorable, my friend.”

The exchange has been shared widely on social media platforms.
