The “hot lady” is Sage Steele acting as moderator.
Trump kept calling her Paige. She chose to ignore those multiple mistakes.
You just love to see it. While asked about cognitive decline, Trump responded with these gem quotes such as “I’ve got no cognitive.” As well as stating he “aced two cognitive tests, no one’s ever done that before.”
Sage Steele from ESPN? She’s MAGA? What in the world
Yep. She’s one of them. I’m still baffled that any woman would willingly be MAGA. Goes to show how powerful propaganda, manipulation, hate, and fear are. Repubs did a fantastic job fortifying their control over decades, installing a dictator, and sowing doubt and distrust with current election practices. Trump is one of many threats.
Edit: Blows my mind, really. She’s youngish (40s or so, I’m not willing to Google her), black, articulate, educated, and a woman. Just makes zero sense why she would be MAGA when that party wants to suppress her. Literally so confused, but yep she’s deeply MAGA. Why would a woman, a black woman, support the racist group that wants to enslave or kill her? Leopards will definitely eat her face.
Yesterday I read a thread on that bird site from a guy adressed at black communities, writing about Lee Atwater and the "Southern Strategy" which I never heard of. That guy basically wanted to reinstate segregation but more hidden, was an adviser to Reagan and wanted to help him into office by evoking the latent racist tendencies of moderate reps in a way they could still feel good about themselves. OP posted pictures of Atwater with a young Roger Stone and a young Trump and drew parallels to today. He warned all POC that the same thing will happen again. I hope that it was only a preventive measure and that in reality black people voting Trump are a tiny minority when they got a non-white, non-racist person right there running for office.
