Something interesting in the Kamala intensity on FOX:

That stupid bastard Bret Baier looked as though he’d rather be anywhere else when the VP raised her pitch and intensity when describing Orangina’s unfitness for office, and it occurred to me that he had a response that males have when mature women have had enough of the bullshit and really, REALLY, call them on it.

For Bret, it may be bad early toilet training or a mother who disciplined with an iron fist (Confession: I had both). When you as a male see a woman get that intense, you know, you KNOW, that you crossed the line and are in real trouble now.

I’m certain the producers saw the dynamic and brought the curtain down. Bret will forever be known as the FOX guy who got pantsed and spanked on national television and may yet make the YouTube hall of Fame on this entry.

even let Hillary finish an answer to a question.

Lauer eventually got fired for sexual harassment and his boss Lack also got fired.

I didn’t want watching the Fox Channel f**king up my algorithm BUT I DIGRESS.

But I didn’t get Huggy Bear’s counter to her point that Joe’s Day One effort to get a bill passed on the border issue was—did I hear this right?—before Trump got into politics???

He WAS President at some point right? I know his reign was like someone who won a cereal box top contest, but I WASN’T imagining all that, yah??

worked hard with Pentagon generals and the National Security Council, and moreover is on all the national security calls that President Biden makes to Zelenskyy, Macron, Sholz, Putin, Netanyahu, Xi, Sisi, Faisal, and every other world leader.

Dude -- the trump operative -- knew he was over his head with this leader.

an adult on political matters. Putting it in terms of a woman belittling a man demeans the important of her message.

She was prepared and not there to play games either. Bret found out she wasn’t about to take his BS and gaslighting. I hope more than ever she wins so they have no choice but to be more respectful of her and the office she will be holding.

They were all set to bully her and break her down. It backfired. And she did it masterfully.

It was powerful. She came across as someone who could absolutely handle the rigors of the office and the steel spine it takes to lead a nation of 342 million. It also helps that what she bristled at wasn't a petty slight or personal affront, but a violation of the highest ideals we are supposed to preserve. That's a mark of character.
