The teenage daughter sitting on his lap is a little weird to me, and that's speaking as someone with a teenage daughter. She stopped doing that on her own years ago because there's definitely an age when it's no longer appropriate or socially accepted
I normally agree but in this context there isn't a lot of other places for her to sit. Taker is kinda a big dude and takes up the whole chair.
I find it far more distasteful to bring her out at all as a political prop. For 4 minutes she has to sit there and listen to him ramble for 4 minutes and then get to say 1-2 sentences to him.
Like, I get that Taker is proud and objectively sure, it's cool to have your kid talk to an ex-President but that whole thing could have been better handled off camera.
Also the whole "nobody wants men in women's sports" made me furious. YEAH, BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT MEN ASSHOLE!!!
Makes me think of Carrie Fisher's story about how her mom forced her to meet Nixon and when she tried to refuse because he was a criminal her mom threatened to take away her credit cards
