This is a genuine question, how would people in the U.S. usually pronounce it? ‘Guest-ar-po?’
I’m from the UK and most people here would pronounce it the way he does.
I’m not sticking up for him, he’s an absolute C-unit but it doesn’t strike me as anything out of the ordinary?
And yeah, they absolutely deserve to be called the Gestapo!

To be fair, ICE is not like Gestapo. Gestapo was trained, organized and efficient. Their terror was more silent. People just vanished back then, taken by the Gestapo.
ICE is way more like SA (“Sturmabteilung”): armed, untrained thugs terrorizing people in the open street.

ICE kidnaps children, ICE murders citizens, ICE hides their faces. ICE are Trump’s gestapo. They terrorize and tear children from their parents. They abuse the people they detain and disappear them to foreign torture prisons. They
are EVIL scum

Nope I caught it, the H sound is unmistakable. If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, sounds like a duck, its a (f)ucking duck

This reminds me… We need to stop directing our vitriol at Trump. We need to ignore him. (He hates that!) We need to focus on his underlings like Bovino, Noem, Miller and the rest. We need to be merciless and not let up. Easier targets and it calls into question Trump’s leadership and reflects poorly on him. (He hates that too.)

Jon Stewart laid into that. Funny shit.

In a CNN interview over the weekend he said the word “melee” but pronounced it “mealy” which is wild he’s gone this long apparently only seeing the word spelled out and never said out loud.

Ok so im german and i am gone look this up. FIY even those of you who can speak our Language usually dont even sound close to “correct”
Yeah that clip cracks me up every time lol, Greg just throws out “gesh-TAH-po” like he’s half German or smth
I spotted that.
Greg knows the lore
Immediately came to mind!
That’s not flawless, but you rarely hear any English speakers get words like that right.
Dunno why so many here ask others to google, but here it is:
[Greg Bovino: There will be consequences for calling ICE agents “Gestapo”](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/nuptmdSmZho)
And no, it is not “flawless”. He just pronounced the “sch” that’s , well, in the word.
Daily Show noticed.
He does look like his descendants is Germanic.
