      She literally had to change her response the next time it happened because she (probably some advisor) realized it was terrible but the hive literally wants us to remember it because they think it ruled lmao

        anywhere I can read more, I hadn't heard she got interrupted by protestors again and am wondering what her changed response was

            we hear you, we see you, we support a ceasefire (and by that we mean the IOF goes right back into Gaza once the settler prisoners are freed or never leaves the Philadelphi Corridor at all). yeah this is much better in the sense that it is boring as shit and harder to mock

              Its not genuinly better in making me support or want to vote for her because i see through it like you do, but it is genuinly better at political messaging. Especially combined with the whole "meeting with Uncommited" thing they did.

              The fact that they changed courses her is, to me, another sign of what I've been saying, that it looks like they genuinly want to win. "I'm speaking" was the first like "oh theres the losers I know" since Biden stepped down. And now they're backing down from it. Of course unhigned morons like King aren't lol, but the campaign is!

      yeah I had no illusions that King wasn't a shitlib, the sheer audacity of this shirt is what's getting to me

      Stephen King never saw a line that didn't make him snort

      The libs love that line, because it is a polite way of saying "Shut up because I don't have a response to you that doesn't make me look like the bad guy."

      The first time she said it to Mike Pence it was a pretty good line. When she said it at Detroit airport it was not good (and the cheer in response was even worse), but I'll at least say I'm not convinced she knew what the protesters were saying.

      If the t-shirt and picture predate the Detroit rally, I think it's completely reasonable to say that yes, at the time "I'm speaking" was a pretty good line.
