How do you solve a problem like knuckle-dragging, backwoods conservative white men who haven’t yet been vaccinated against COVID19? Well, if you’re Joe Biden’s administration, you can’t expect them to come to you to see the light. You’ve got to go to them.
And that’s exactly what the White House is doing, according to Jen Psaki:
.@PressSec on White House efforts to strengthen vaccine confidence in "white conservative communities":

“In our generosity and concern, we’re reaching out to all the white hicks, hillbillies, and rednecks.”
"We've got a huge buy on 'Hee Haw' reruns," she continued. https://t.co/i074j75lZ3

I was wondering why someone had printed “get vaccinated” on all the wife beaters and Duke’s mayonnaise jars at Walmart https://t.co/RcF271VAAs

If Jen Psaki et al. didn’t already exist, we’d have to invent them. Of course, we’d also have to be really, really drunk at the time.
What in the actual FCK

This is absolutely hilarious. What sitcom is this from? She does really well to keep a straight face with some of the lines she comes off with.

It’s definitely one for the books!
Stereotyping much?

I’m a conservative that doesn’t watch any of the three listed. Maybe cast a wider net.

I'm offended at the stereotyping. I'm conservative & dislike each of those things.

Adjacent to getting to black people through BET, Basketball and Moesha…. But only one statement would be considered racist ?♂️

I can not believe this is real… The level of disconnect our ruling class has with the middle of the country is completely staggering.

I was just wondering if @WhiteHouse could be any more condescending. Turns out, they can!

Update:
Why stop at NASCAR? @redsteeze's hypothetical white redneck vaccination outreach ideas should really inspire Jen Psaki and the Biden admin https://t.co/ehUfHE1fGw
