I’d never heard of this person until my wife suddenly started seeing so many pictures of her on Facebook that she asked me who it was… After I said I had no idea she proceeded to Google it and then told me her name… Which I promptly forgot.
I don’t understand why they didn’t have Trump give it… like I’m not rooting for Trump and the GOP deserves to be in chaos, but Trump would have done an infinitly better job. Like “look at me, I’m your other choice. Here’s what I’m claiming to bring to the table.” Instead they gave us Senator Mrs. Whomever talking weird.
I’m starting to wonder if they’re putting her in the limelight as setup for her being Trump’s VP pick.
Simple, having Trump talk sensible would be impossible. So airing him directly after Biden would show how weak he is as a public speaker.
I don’t think that matters to his constituents. They just want to see him on TV giving it to the libs.
A lot of Republicans questioning Trump just lost their nominee. Showing him look like a fool is not in their best interest.
I had to watch that clip twice because I thought it was fake with the way she was speaking lol.
Her manner of speaking reminds me of the sermons you get at ‘modern’/nondenominational churches here in the south. Just the way phrases are timed, the intonation, the need to make every minute factual statement sound emotionally profound…
I have to wonder if she is consciously trying to speak in that way. I don’t know why they would think that was a good approach for a political speech lmao. It’s just so bizarre I can’t actually process it.
It’s a good approach because their base is open to it. They are used to listening to that cadence and inflection with openness and willingness to swallow whatever poison is in the message, and that conditioning makes it so that the content doesn’t matter, only the delivery.
I doubt she even recognizes that she’s doing it too. She’s just used to authority with a microphone speaking this way and so she does it too. It’s exactly how I used to be before I got out.
Yep. The same bunch that would buy the qtarded conspiracy theories, or fall for Satanic panic, or that Jaysus is going to come back any day now and start up some bad fan-fic ala Left Behind is totally going to eat this drivel up with a spoon.
She’s just acting. You can see the crazy in her eyes. She’s literally insane.

What’s the opposite of a slam dunk called? Because this is it.
I’m not sure if that’s more or less accurate because he did in fact make the block.
Dam slunk?

Am Tankie and am really confused by why you think I would defend the GOP. It was creepy and gross.
Please learn where tankies comes from before using it as a catchall insult.
creepy little smiles

I am not a psychologist and this should not be considered a diagnosis.
I dont think that word means what you think it means…
If only there was a bipartisan border bill which consists of nothing but concessions from democrats. Katie’s one of the people who killed the bill.
Please. I beg you people, do not drink psycho moms sweet tea. There’s something in that shit.
Pedro: Man, what is in this sh*t, man?
Man Stoner: Mostly Maui Waui man, but it’s got some Labrador in it.
Pedro: What’s Labrador?
Man Stoner: It’s dog sh*t.
Pedro: What?
Katie is one of the people who helped WRITE the bill AND who helped kill the bill.
Just getting the sounds bites in. Facts? What are those?
Crazy eyes.
There is something extremely creepy about her tone of voice and body language. One second it feels like she is trying to convince you that she is genuine but she tries too hard which immediately make you think she is faking it. All of a sudden she sounds angry in a very serious way which makes me think she is a psychopath and she about to stab me in the neck with an ice pick. My immediate instinctive reaction is to stop the video. Last time I was this creeped out was watching Anthony Hopkins’ performance in Silence of the Lamb. Of course that was just really good acting of a fictional character and this is a real life person which makes it even more disturbing.
Show me your “There is no war in Ba Sing Se!” face.

And through the whole thing she’s using her submissive wife voice https://jesspiper.substack.com/p/the-fundie-baby-voice
Last time I was this creeped out was watching Anthony Hopkins’ performance in Silence of the Lamb.
I had the same feeling watching it, and there’s a reason for it.
Filming the movie, Anthony Hopkins and the director and editor collaborated around making sure he basically never fucking blinks on camera. It causes a very unsettling effect when there’s long periods of not blinking.
Katie seems to have inadvertently adopted the same technique. I’ll take Marco Rubio grabbing water like a man dying in the desert any day over this creepy Stepford wives thing.
It legit looked like something Vaught made to defend Homelander in The Boys. It was laughably bad.
It was so disturbing I couldn’t physically make myself watch it, and I’m a news junkie obsessed with this crap.
I had to turn it off halfway through. My kid was playing switch and said Daddy, what’s she talking about? And I had to turn it off out of fear that he would take any of it at face value. I told him she was lying to try to get votes and turned it off.
It sounded like she was out of breath and being held at gun point lmao. Fellas this is like the end game of don’t stick your dick in crazy.
I bet this one is a total nut in the sack, but given my anecdotal experiences - it’s never worth it. Definite bunny boiler vibes…I get the same vibes from Boebert, BTW. The fact that she was having a grope sesh in public was probably the least surprising Boebert news, ever.
Didn’t hear what she had to say but a friend said is was definitely going to be the basis of SNL’s cold open this weekend.
Was that friend the person quoted in the article?
How can I watch it outside the USA?
The individual skits, monologues, and musical sets are usually up on YouTube within 24hrs after it airs
Thanks.
Not sure about any geographic restrictions tho
Definitely subscribe to the channel on YouTube. Sunday afternoon is SNL day for us.
Remember, she only got the job because she’s one of Trump’s in-crowd. He’ll try to distance himself from this flop but he owns it.
Pretty sure he already praised it.
Hires only the best people, that he has never met before and are secret Democrats…
Maybe some covfefe runners?
The absolute terrible acting here will not be picked up by the South. That very reflective Jesus Cross around her neck is an obvious prop. All the fake crying in the world won’t derail those people. Sickening.
Fortunately, there are only a handful of states that actually have a chance to alter the outcome and several of those states will have a lot of conservatives going “wtf was that?” Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin are the four I expect would see the most suppressed republican voter turnout from this train wreck of a speech
I’ve lost all faith in conservatives to think logically or use common sense.

If they’d stop voting for psycopaths simply because they have an R next to the name, that’d be greeeaaat.
Believe it or not there are still moderate ones out there, they just have shut up because they’re embarrassed
The general election is still eight months away. No one will remember this train wreck by then, since there’ll be all new ones.
The decision to stay home on election day isn’t made of a single event. It’s a chain of them that demoralizes someone into apathy
Deep south Louisiana here. Recognized the fake sincerity in both her awful “I’m a good Christian wifey” voice and her “fake fake fake concerned” facial expressions, the fake automated and often inappropriate smiles. Yuk.
I’m sure this will fly right over the heads of Evangelical/Fundie idiots, because that’s all they’ve ever known. But those of us who’ve dipped our toe into the waters of a wider world are noticing, and we are not being fooled at all.
Even some Republicans down here noticed…my neighbor asked me if I saw her “little talk in her kitchen” and called it a shit show. She’s not wrong, but I don’t think she even knows to what extent.
Tens of millions of women are angered by the overthrow of abortion rights and her “mommy and wifey” as her primary role in society is going to anger them further. The Republican woman is being shown as submissive with little value to the party; she literally belongs in the kitchen! That’s a big no-no to many women, even some Republican ones.
I mean it’s sad but predictable when your sanest member still sounds like a lunatic because that’s what the Republican party wants in their leaders.
However I do understand what she was going for in the whole kitchen aesthetic, you know trying to connect with the old boomers that have kitchens talking about their “Kitchen Table” issues.

Let’s not dive into baseless speculation as fact that Republicans do so very much now.

Provide a citation that her kids have cut ties with her then because the stuff you’re posting isn’t about her family here.

This is what happens when Republicans try to seem like they are down home people instead of corporate shills. The cracks in the mask show
