... so a pissed Trump answered like a pissed Trump.

His emotion is so easily manipulated, so immature, so unpresidential, so lacking in self-control ... so sad and so pathetic, really.

Consult your chart and see if it's time for sex. You'll feel better.

She talked more about her Indian heritage with Mindy Kaling than the average person she talks to?

Wow. Sounds nefarious.

Other people mentioned it...

Wow. Sounds nefarious.

Nah, not nefarious.

Pandering.

Her "Blackness" is convenient now. It wasn't in 2016.

[Jolly]

No, that's just a small sample. She played up her Indian roots to multiple people, including the NYT (IIRC), when it suited her purposes. Now, she's playing up her black side. Witness her speeches over the last few days and her swap to Southern black accent and dialect, then dropping back into her nasal San Francisco accent and dialect.

It's simply another example of her chameleon political nature. She uses whatever she thinks will work at the moment.

Most politicians are not unlike that, tbh.

Somewhat. But most have some core beliefs of some kind. She's a lot more silly putty than the average pol.

Oh no!

I talk up my Swedish side when it’s convenient relevant and my deep (pre-Norman) English roots at other times.

Seriously guys, you need to find something real to worry about.

This is …. wait for it ….

Weird.

Do you dip into a Swedish accent at those times?

[jon-nyc]

Ya!

Frum...A neocon who has fallen from grace. I thought that man actually was bright at one time.

I was wrong.

And for good or bad, Trump owns the newscycle again...

At least he doesn’t write for the Daily Mail.

[Renauda]

I respect Frum and his brand of thinking conservatism. No surprise the Trump crowd doesn’t like him.

[jon-nyc]

He could hold all the same policy opinions and start liking trump and they’d be fine with him.

The placement of loyalty to the Dear Leader over all other considerations is creepy.

Like JD Vance.

Creepy. An accurate description.

At least Trump is consistent.

He was a douchebag in the 1970's.

He was a douchebag in the 2000's.

He was a douchebag in 2016.

And he's a douchebag now.
