In the clip, which began trending across social media on Monday, Lowry said, “They’ve only found two Springfield residents calling to complain about Haitian [ni—] taking geese from ponds.” [A] number of users on social media are saying that, before he corrected himself, it sounded like Lowry used the N-word instead of “migrants.”

He clearly used the first half of the n-word. There's no doubt. Video clip - https://xcancel.com/peltzmadeline/status/1835743619971535137

He misspeaks, somehow, probably been drinking a little today. It just happens to sound exactly like the freeze-gamer word which considering who it is couldn't be a more perfect person for this to happen to.

I swear if you play it on speakers it's possible to hear what happened, but it still basically sounds the same so shrug-outta-hecks

You know that thing where you try to say "cool" and "good" at the same time and end up saying "gool" and feel kind of dumb, but it's totally fine and it happens to everyone?

That but "migrant" and the n-word, and it's not totally fine and doesn't happen to everyone, because one of the words is the n-word.
