She'd have to do it Stavvy-style for something like that to land. Let's be real - a lib could never handle the crowd work like he can. If I'm keeping it a buck, I don't know if she could get through it without doing some body shaming. Calling him weird isn't the sure-fire win they think it is.

What about subtle, backhanded negging? "That's a very nice tie, Mr. Trump. Did you tie that yourself?" ... "Oh, don't worry, you'll get better at it. Some day."

...except if Kamala tried to spit out that one-liner, it would sound like it was fed through ChatGPT to fluff the word count until it could be used as a subclause within a EULA.

First of all, EULA michael-laugh

I also think subtlety in front of the big, big crowd in front of the big wet boy would be tough. He has the home field advantage because he knows how Americans feel. He can read the room. So while you're trying to be clever, he hits you with something like "didn't you help with Ukraine?"

If it were me I'm betting the house, referencing They Not Like Us, and playing that Epstein angle like it's a drum during a Metallica concert.
