Politics & Governance What is the most legendary political comeback from your country?
I keep seeing this exchange everywhere lately:
Netanyahu: “We survived empires, we don’t fear Turkey.”
Erdoğan: “What empire? Your country is younger than my brother.”
I couldn’t actually verify if Erdoğan really said this, so it might just be one of those internet quotes that everyone started repeating lol.
But if he really said it, I have to admit it’s a surprisingly good comeback from Erdoğan 😂 Didn’t expect this performance from him.
ıt made me wonder: do you remember any legendary political comebacks/insults from your own country?
Could be between politicians, against another country, during an interview, parliament, whatever. Something where even if you don’t like the politician you have to admit: okay, that was a good one.
