That’s because she used words above the apparent educational level of most Faux News viewers, anchors, and commentators. They couldn’t understand coherent answers. They think Trump speaks brilliantly and eloquently, and almost everything he says is stream of consciousness word salad.
One of Trump’s former advisers, and I cannot remember which one, says the accordion hands are a tell for when he is lying.

Hmmm. I thought it was when you see his lips moving.

There must be some fundamental science related to brain chemistry or how synapses fire to create such drastically diametrically opposed views of the same event(s).

Or is it nurture vs nature? Whatever it is, knowing the answer might ultimately allow us to live peacefully together and work effectively toward common goals.

I hope science can eventually tell us.

There is no science to it. Fox had a prepared response that is generic enough to fit any occasion

“Blessed are the cheesemakers?”

That hearkens back to when I was a youngster in church and we sang the old gospel song "Bringing in the Cheese."


Or am I misremembering?

My wife thought our choir was singing “keep your hats trimmed and burning.” And she made the mistake of asking me in church what was with the burning hats and all.

He won 5,000 votes in the middle and lost 5,000 evangelical votes on the far right...

Actually his base knows he said this to own the libs and get the 5000 middle votes. Once elected he’ll ask for 6 weeks and 1 day which is technically longer

I think you're wrong. It's going to be a total ban. It's actually written out in Project 2025 and it's called fetal personhood.

 

[MarkD83]

His base is waiting for him to tell them what to think.

Ditto heads

Great way to drum up support with young women is by mocking a young women. That young lady was only 18 and got flustered. Vance is 39 and got flustered when people were calling out his wife’s skin tone.

To be fair, the poor woman in question must be about 35 now.

Why are Trump/Vance leaning past "weird" and into "gross?"

 

[MarkD83]

Slippery slope, my friend. Slippery slope.

Socialism -> Communism -> Scarlet -> Fire -> Drums -> Space. Then it’s all over.

Wait is this a test of cognitive decline .

“Blessed are the cheesemakers?”

I think it could extend to any manufacturer of dairy products.

So mostly cows?

CNN will be interviewing JD Vance live about an hour from now if folks want to tune in. I am sure he will have a thoughtful and measured take on last night's Harris interview

He got asked some fairly tough questions and didn’t do great. I’ll give him a 2 out of 10. He was asked about his post on X of the former miss Teen USA 18-year-old Caitlin Upton and comparing it to Kamala. Caitlin has gone on record to say that because of online abuse at that time she did have thoughts of committing suicide. When pressed Vance would not apologize posting it but he did sort of admit that he made a mistake.
Vance also got pushed quite hard on how Trump will vote in Florida on the abortion decision there. He had to waffle big time.

Of course. Where do you think the expression “Holy cow” comes from?

Just like he had to waffle in defending his wife against racist comments from his own party's supporters. "It kinda ticks me off". Vance is the paradigm of smarmy

Yup. MAGA nation understands how the game is played. Meanwhile, the progressive left, which prides itself on being intellectually superior, holds the Democrat candidates to countless litmus tests then stays home or voted third party to “send a message” and end up with a winner who is much further away from what they want. So who are the smart ones now?

I wasn’t able to watch this AM.

I’m wondering if they asked him about his statement that Trump was most certainly NOT filming a political ad at the gravesite in Arlington, while juxtaposing it with Trump’s political ad from Arlington?

Who has control of the white house and senate?

No. It was not discussed. Old news now I suppose.

In this clip the accordion hands appear about half way through. That advisor may have a point.
