All politics aside, Turkish President Tayyip Erdoğan may well be the best political battle rapper alive.
Exhibit A: In response to a proposal by CHP presidential challenger Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu that the two meet for a televised debate Erdogan spat back, "Bu lig meselesi. Amatör kümede oynayanla, süper ligde oynayanı biraraya getirmek mümkün mü? Sen daha dur bakalım. Daha çok ekmek yiyeceksin. Daha çok işin var."
Loosely translated: "This is a matter of league. Is it possible for someone who plays in an amateur league and someone who plays in the Super League to come together? Hold up, let's take a look. You've got more bread to to eat. You have more work to do."
Reminds me a bit of this.
