23 分钟One of the things that I really like about politicians is...
I cannot wait to see where this sentence goes, go ahead.
Is that they can be very much like actors in that they always know where the camera is,
like, I am stage left, I am stage right, or whatever.
And Trump is especially good at that.
Yesterday, he's touring the Fed, and he's basically criticizing Jerome Powell,
the chair of the Fed, and he starts speaking, and he's like, no, Jerome!
Come here, come here."
He basically puts him directly in the line of the cameras and all of that stuff so that everybody can see
as he's given it to Jerome Powell or whatever.
I think Trump is just a master at understanding camera angles and dramatics and art.
The problem with this moment is that he's using everything that he and the press office can do to try to deflect or distract or whatever,
and it's just not.
Everybody wakes up and it's like, what's going to happen with this Epstein stuff?
